The Dutch 3D printer and software developer, Bond 3D should receive investment from Victrex, the performance plastics developer.
Victrex confirmed its intention to invest millions of Euros into the company not too long ago. The UK-headquartered company is specialised in PEEK and PAEK polymer products and is trying to develop new applications in order to commercialise these products.
The CEO at Victrex, Jakob Sigurdsson said, “Our investment in Bond’s 3D technology is a logical way to accelerate 3D printed PAEK/PEEK parts to market. We need to ensure that all the key elements, including material, process and hardware are aligned to fulfil our goal of enabling our customers to manufacture 3D printed PAEK components for critical high performance applications. We’re now at a stage where the technology is sufficiently developed to embark on exciting development programs”.
