3D system speeds stapler development time
Combining stereolithography and proven mould-making technology, 3D Keltool allowed Acco Brands to produce a fully functional prototype stapler, at a cost saving of approximately 80%.
Dreve Otoplastik is the world-wide distributor for these systems.
The V-Flash HA 230 system uses the same proprietary film transfer imaging (FTI) technology that 3D Systems developed for its V-Flash Desktop 3D modellers.
Dr Volker Dreve, President of Dreve said "The V-Flash unit, together with our FotoFlash material, will make rapid manufacturing a reality in the growing hearing aid market".
"I believe this system will set the state of the art standard regarding quality, speed and affordability".
"We are pleased with the enthusiastic response that we received during this event from major players within the hearing aid industry on our new desktop manufacturing system", said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems' President and Chief Executive Officer.
