We use them for SLS and/or FDM modeling techniques. Because of complex shapes and very light weight requirements, we use components made by them in our machines as final parts.

Contact me via PM if youd like specific contact info.
Thank you and will follow-up. I'm very much old school but in awe of the new technology.

I have a small side gig sort of taking on a life of its own for the vintage woodworker machine enthusiast market. Thanks to the advent of the PC and net it's neat to see the old stuff survive, gain interest and carry onto the new generation. Ironically, the machine I service to the customer base was invented in 1947 and produced in Menlo Park (S.F.). Revolutionary at the time and was a great success. Same story continues today in Menlo Park but now as a leading technology center. I need some parts reproduced and hopefully can be done more affordable.

ps. Road America / Plymouth WI - fave road course!
