"We are proud to be doing our part to help provide critical supplies to the healthcare workers on the front lines of the COVID-19 battle," said Ken Burns, Commercial Vice President at FORECAST 3D. "One of the benefits of additive manufacturing is its ability to adapt to changing product needs. Once we had FDA-approved or NIH-endorsed designs, we accelerated production on these much-needed supplies."
All products are being produced primarily on the HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) machines in Carlsbad, CA. FORECAST 3D plans to add additional lines as approved designs become available.
