Precision Resource has partnered with 3D Systems to build two metal additive manufacturing facilities, expanding metal 3D printing service capacity. Precision Resource, a supplier of precision stamping and metal-formed components, is collaborating with 3D Systems to integrate metal additive manufacturing capabilities into its production system and provide additive parts to customers in automotive, aerospace, and other sectors. The move by a conventional metal component supplier into metal additive manufacturing signals that additive manufacturing is moving into the scale-manufacturing supply chain and will drive steady demand for metal powders and process validation.
