New revolutionary technology for 3D metal printing

The new technology enables manufacturers to reliably integrate 3D metal printing into full production environments, and demonstrates a potentially disruptive key shift in industrial manufacturing.

While first-generation 3D metal printing has transformed the prototyping process by shrinking cycle times and reducing development costs, collective industry experience has determined that these systems have not been effective, reliable, or sustainable as tools for full production. First-generation additive manufacturing technology has proven unable to consistently produce high quality and highly functioning components, particularly when dealing with complex parts.

Bulk-To-Shape technology, available exclusively from Fonon Corporation, provides a cost-effective method for developing application-specific 3D metal printing tools. A combination of proprietary processes, a profound understanding of the molecular behaviour of materials under transitional temperatures and intellectual property accumulated over decades of success building metal laser sintering products, Fonon Corporation's Bulk-To-Shape technology enables industrial manufacturers to bridge the gap between prototyping and full production.
