Carbon's New Production Partners in Europe

Carbon has announced a network expansion of production partners including Complete Fabrications, Erpro Group, Kurz and Rapid Product Manufacturing (RPM) in Europe. The addition of four European companies is a testament to the growth of the market and adoption of production-scale digital manufacturing globally. With the international members and the recent addition of many new United States production partners, the Carbon Production Network (CPN) now has more than 35 global members.    

The company’s geographic expansion is in line with IDC’s projections of 3D printing’s global market dynamics. 2018 spending is expected to grow by 19.9 percent from 2017, topping nearly $12 billion, with the United States and western Europe accounting for nearly two thirds of the market.  

The CPN is a group of industry design firms and contract manufacturers who have implemented Carbon’s technology and demonstrated capabilities in additive manufacturing, design, production, urethane casting, machining and injection molding. It offers a partnership model that focuses on hands-on training and certification, production engineering, marketing, and sales to help ensure its partners’ success.
