As an industry consultant, Bredemeyer is a leading expert in the field.  Collider has developed a unique technology that create 3D printed parts with the same mechanical properties as those seen with traditional manufacturing. In other words, Collider can 3D print parts that rival traditionally manufactured objects, making the technology viable for end parts, in addition to producing parts for rapid tooling and prototyping. And, it can do so with great speed. Having spoken to Graham about the technology at Collider, I can tell you that the firm&#8217;s incredibly exciting process can even rival the high speed 3D printing processes that made headlines last year.<\/p>\n<p>Alan M. Meckler, General Partner at Asimov Ventures, said of the technology, <em>\u201cCollider\u2019s technology is a game changer and we are thrilled to be an early stage investor. Many industrial companies will no longer have to sacrifice material capabilities in producing 3D printed parts as they will be able to use the exact same materials they use today to make parts.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Collider will be launching its pilot program with leading industrial clients this year, with the firm&#8217;s proprietary process obtaining positive market feedback.
