Additive Industries has launched a new partnership with Fraunhofer Project Center at the University of Twente and the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT in Aachen, Germany.

The 3D printing company has reportedly sold a MetalFAB1 system to the Fraunhofer Project Center and has entered into a strategic collaboration with them and Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT. The main aim of this partnership is to qualify new materials, improve design guidelines, increase post-processing expertise, and enable the integration of metal additive manufacturing into industrial process chains for broader industry acceptance, the company said.
