TETHON 3D
DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE
Linder is proud of Tethon 3D’s client support. “We’ve been able to address the
needs of our customers and provide them with materials and service that have
been rejected by typical manufacturing operations,” she says. “We feel we’re
able to accomplish the impossible and unimaginable.”
Some ceramic designs cannot be made by hand, milling or slip casting, Linder
says. “But with 3-D printing, we can take a computer model, translate it to the
printer and create complex geometries that can’t be made by any other
method,” she says.
The 3-D printing industry began to enjoy much attention in the previous decade
and that popu larity continues to grow, Linder says. “We’re excited to be
expanding our menu of available materials,” she says, noting that it plans to
launch up to eight new materials in 2017.
These include Flexalite®, which will be the next product Tethon 3D launches.
The photocurable polymer resin has a transparency and flexibility that will be
useful for hobbyist, as well as industrial applications. “It’s a material for 3D
printing that our users asked for,” she says.
