3D Systems’ DMP Flex 350 Dual technology includes two lasers, which will enable rms Company to produce high-quality, highly reliable end-use Titanium parts for medical device applications. This will allow the company to deliver the sterilized and packaged final product for the surgical suite.
3D Systems is anticipating material science to be a key driver in the transition to 3D production. DDD is investing large sums in material innovation across its portfolio to capitalize on this trend.
Going forward, 3D Systems expects its portfolio of innovative products to drive more than 30% organic growth over the next couple of years, thereby enhancing its margins and earnings.
In September 2022, the additive manufacturer declared the formation of a wholly owned bioprinting startup, Systemic Bio, to accelerate the development of new drugs, which will aid in reducing or eliminating the need for animal testing. This is likely to expand DDD’s growth opportunities in the domain of pharmaceuticals and create a new revenue stream that could reach $100 million annually over the next five years.
