Business Wire
While Prodways is preparing for the major end-of-year trade
shows, several customers have acted on their strong interest in the
technology developed by the Group.
MOVINGLight® technology, based on moving DLP and strong UVA
LEDs, offers unique levels of resolution, precision, homogeneity
and overall efficiency in the manufacturing of parts for various
industrial applications, namely in the dental, medical,
aeronautical and jewelry sectors.
For these customers, most of them experts in 3D printing
technologies, the use of MOVINGLight® technology represents an
important competitive advantage for current and future
applications. This recognition confirms the relevance of the
Group’s chosen development areas: design of machines and materials
targeting production applications, high productivity, stability,
and process repeatability. This competitive advantage has the
drawback - in most cases - of withholding the disclosure of
customers’ names.
Nevertheless, the Group would like to inform the market of the
strong growth in its sales and business relations over recent
months.
In addition to sales to distributors, a number of key accounts
and leading customers in their fields have ordered or renewed
orders during the first two years of Prodways’ operations. In
particular, we can mention:
- an international group based in North
America, which ordered 3 machines, used in R&D and in
Production. This group is likely to renew other orders;
- a European 3D printing expert, which is
now equipped with 3 machines;
- several “Service Bureaux” (on-demand 3D
parts printing) have incorporated MOVINGLight® technology as an
alternative to conventional stereolithography techniques; they
include one of the three leading Service Bureaux worldwide;
- four key dental companies are using one
or more machines for dental model applications, orthodontic
devices, R&D, etc.;
- several major groups in the
aeronautical sector have purchased machines, in particular for
R&D applications relevant to engines, with medium-term
production prospects;
- several R&D institutes have
purchased machines and materials to develop new applications;
- chemical groups have also purchased
machines to explore the possibilities of MOVINGLight® technology
regarding the use of new materials in 3D printing;
- lastly, the jewelry industry (for which
one customer is already using our machines) also has interesting
production potential.
All of these successes together confirm the potential of this
new activity for Groupe Gorgé.
At the same time, Prodways is continuing its efforts across
various fields of activity to provide the market with the best
possible comprehensive offer: new technologies, expansion of the
distribution network, strong presence in trade shows, etc.
Moreover, Prodways will participate in the EuroMold trade show held
in Düsseldorf from September 22 to 25, the TCT show in Birmingham
on September 30 and October 1, and FormNext from November 17 to
20.
