PrintForm
PrintForm Aerospace
PrintForm serves customers in a number of industries, including aerospace and defence.
PrintForm, a build-to-order manufacturer of plastic and metal parts, has received strategic investment from Atlanta-based InspireX Ventures.
The backing will enable the service bureau to further enhance its offering to its customer base. PrintForm provides parts in quantities from 1 to 100,000, manufactured with a range of techniques, from additive manufacturing processes to traditional methods. These parts can be end use, prototypes, and casting patterns, and ordered by players in the automotive, aerospace, medical, and consumer product industries, among others.
PrintForm is capable of manufacturing parts in a number of additive processes, as well as CNC machining and injection moulding, such as Stereolithography (SLA), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM), Colour Jet Printing (CJP), Polyjet, and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS). The latter of which is the focus of a partnership with WIPRO3D, a provider of metal additive manufacturing solutions and services. Together, they are looking to increase the adoption of metal 3D printing in a sustainable way.
Welcoming the financial support of InspireX Ventures, PrintForm will look to build on its service offering, and explore more opportunities, like the partnership with WIPRO3D, to better support its customers.
“The investment from InspireX Ventures will allow us to take another major step forward with developing our people, processes, and technologies,” said Brian Ford, PrintForm Co-Founder and CEO. “We are fanatical about serving the customer, and are further developing technology to make it as easy as possible for them to order prototypes and custom parts. When you combine customer solutions with the expression of our sales and marketing efforts, it creates a winning formula that makes everyone at PrintForm very excited for what the future holds.”
