In a new partnership with Saratech, an award-winning provider of engineering and manufacturing solutions including Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software, engineering and consulting services, and manufacturing hardware headquartered in Mission Viejo, CA, IDMI has broadened its additive manufacturing portfolio to include HP, Markforged, and BigRep. The partnership has brought a production capable HP Jet Fusion 4200 3d printer and depowdering station capable of high speed polyamide prints, the continuous fiber reinforced polymer parts capable Markforged X7 that brings carbon fiber, kevlar, and fiberglass to the mix, the atomic diffusion additive manufacturing Markforged MetalX that uses polymer bound metal powders along with wash and sinterting stages to create high detail metal components, as well as the Bigrep Studio for large platform, open material extruded builds.  With Saratech support and the broad audience of the IDMI, the partnership will allow a multitude of research, training, education, and outreach opportunities.

We are open during regular business hours for walk-ins and reservations.  Our Technical Director, Ben Dolan is available to answer any questions you may have. Given the complexity of most equipment located at RapidTech and the scheduling challenges related to long additive manufacturing jobs, no online scheduling is offered at this time. Please contact Ben to inquire about using our infrastructure.
