This is a dream combination of 3D Systems&#8217; powerful CJP full color technology with Figulo&#8217;s extensive ceramic materials and process know-how to accelerate online and at home adoption and to unleash the full potential of professional and consumer ceramic 3D printing.<\/i>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CEO of 3DS, Avi Reichental, explained how the purchase would strengthen the company and ready ceramic 3D printing for the public, \u201c<i>With Figulo on board, we are enhancing both our Cubify and Quickparts capabilities and significantly expanding our materials and process expertise and know-how to fast track the commercialization of ceramic 3D printers. Ceramic 3D printing creates a unique experience for this time honored art form and is sure to induce a new breed of artists, designers and major d\u00e9cor labels to incorporate 3D printing into their professional toolbox while consumers enjoy the next dimension of d\u00e9cor and art.<\/i>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since the acquisition, it seems that Figulo\u2019s shop on Shapeways has been removed, which I suppose means that they will no longer be supplying 3D printed ceramics for the online service bureau, leaving Shapeways looking a little like the robot at this link. The good news is, maybe we\u2019ll be able to buy our own 3D ceramic printers soon!<\/p>\n<p>Source: <i>twst.com<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continuously striving to position itself as a 3D printing powerhouse, 3D Systems has acquired yet another company to add to its diverse portfolio of 3D printing technologies.
