A3D Manufacturing Opens Phoenix Headquarters
On-demand manufacturer triples its capacity for advanced additive manufacturing and Multi Jet Fusion printing.
, an on-demand manufacturer, opened its new headquarters in Phoenix. The company uses additive manufacturing — along with traditional processes such as injection molding, urethane casting and CNC machining — to produce plastic and metal parts for its customers. The new headquarters is expected to triple the company’s capacity for advanced additive manufacturing and Multi Jet Fusion printing.
