ZVerse and Carbon® announce strategic partnership to bridge the design gap for digital manufacturing
March 7, 2019
The demand for production grade 3d printed parts continues to grow as hardware and material science evolves. More companies are adopting additive manufacturing as a viable option to replace traditional manufacturing methods for end use parts or for parts used in their plants. Additive manufacturing removes the traditional manufacturing design constraints, but the design process continues to be a major friction point for some companies who have yet to adopt 3d printing. ZVerse and Carbon have agreed to enter into a design partnership leveraging the ZVerse 3D Design On Demand Platform and Services optimized for the Carbon Production Network (CPN). The goal of the partnership is to increase the funnel of production applications for Carbon’s production partners and customers.
Carbon is one of the fastest growing Silicon Valley technology companies. Their technology is being used by Adidas to 3d print shoes, Lamborghini to 3d print car parts and Riddell to 3d print the safest football helmet in the world.
“We are thrilled to partner with Carbon to deliver their production partners and customers the easiest path from idea to manufacturable files. Our mission is to increase the pipeline of production applications for our digital manufacturing partners, at scale, by removing the friction associated with providing design services,” said John Carrington, CEO at ZVerse.
“Carbon recognizes that removing design friction leads to more production applications and that is why this partnership is important,” said Phil DeSimone, Co-Founder and VP of Business Development of Carbon. “ZVerse will help bridge the design gap and enable Carbon customers to create previously un-makeable products using Carbon DLS technology.”
