Technology & Products
Key Products
3D printing service (SLA, SLS, MJF, FDM, PolyJet, DMLS); Rapid prototyping; Rapid tooling; Rapid manufacturing; Injection molding; CNC machining; 3D scanning
Technological Advantage
Verified advantage: Multi-technology platform (SLA, SLS, MJF, FDM, PolyJet, DMLS) allows material and process optimization for diverse applications. Defensible through operational expertise and long-term customer relationships, but technology is replicable.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces prototyping lead times from weeks to days with high-precision parts, offering a one-stop-shop from 3D data to finished components, enabling faster product iteration and cost-effective small-batch production.
How They Differentiate
Offers broader in-house capabilities including rapid tooling and injection molding alongside 3D printing, unlike Protolabs' focus on digital manufacturing; provides personalized service with over 30 years of local German market experience, contrasting with Shapeways' global online platform.
