Our hardware ninja startups
Apium is offering a solution combination regarding processing high-performance polymers by using the FFF 3D printing technology. Our main focus is developing FFF 3D printers.
We have built a voxel-based software engine for the processing and preparation of extremely complex models for 3D printing. We can make almost every conventional CAD model printable, and use generative design and algorithms to create very intricate details, usually not available with traditional surface mesh models (STL files).
Universal gripping technology for flexible production and logistics. The Formhand can adapt to and handle objects with different shapes.
AprintaPro develops and manufactures 3D-printing materials and adhesives. Our main goal is to make the common and new (metal 3d printing) 3D-printing technologies more accessible to a broader audience.
Photoneo was established as a machine vision startup based in Slovakia with a team of visionaries and talented engineers focused on 3D. Our vision is to give robots human-like eyes. http://photoneo.com
