"The subscription model is beneficial as we are able to make payments over time versus one large capital investment. This enables us to keep costs down and allows for the flexibility to add more printers as the division grows."
''We knew additive manufacturing could offer us new paths in industrial tooling. Our experience with the oil reservoir demonstrated that Carbon’s process and materials offer fundamentally new applications and capabilities.''
