Technology & Products

Key Products

TAPS series 3D printers (TAPS 200, TAPS 300, TAPS 400); HALS (High-Accuracy High-Speed) 3D printing technology; Photopolymer resin materials (over 2,000 formulas); SuperDesigner lattice generation software; Ultra-fast 3D printing smart factory solutions

Technological Advantage

HALS technology enables production speeds equivalent to 100 traditional 3D printers, with a material library of over 2,000 formulas and nearly 80 patents. The integrated smart factory system automates production from design to finished part, creating a defensible moat through process integration and IP.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Enables mass production of end-use parts with 3D printing, reducing lead times from months to hours and enabling on-demand, customized manufacturing at scale.

How They Differentiate

3x faster build speeds than traditional SLA/DLP systems via HALS technology; integrated material-printer-software ecosystem optimized for mass production, not just prototyping; focus on elastomers and functional end-use parts for footwear and consumer goods.
