HeyGears and PostProcess Technologies have announced a strategic partnership as both companies aim to elevate the quality, safety and efficiency of 3D printing workflows for dental applications.
According to the companies, the combination of HeyGears’ 3D printing solutions, which include automated production capabilities with printers such as the UltraCraft A3D, and PostProcess’ post-printing solutions elevate production capabilities for dental labs.
By employing the complete resin removal workflow, alongside PostProcess’ patented AUX-400-RINSE, labs can efficiently eliminate the need for Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) in their resin removal process. This partnership will enable labs to safely and swiftly produce high-quality dental applications with ease.
HeyGears is an innovation-driven technology company with 3D printing solutions and digital intelligent manufacturing technologies as its core competencies. The company is dedicated to building a complete service ecosystem by integrating hardware, software, material science, IoT and smart features. The company has five offices in China, and one office in Irvine, US.
“We are thrilled to partner with PostProcess; their cutting-edge post-processing technologies will complement our state-of-the-art 3D printing dental solutions, providing an even greater level of performance and efficiency for our customers,” said HeyGears CEO and co-founder, Peiyan Gui. “By combining our expertise, we are confident that we can enhance the way dental applications are produced, improving digital dentistry workflows and overall satisfaction.”
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Buffalo, US, PostProcess Technologies removes the bottleneck in the final stage of the 3D printing workflow, post-processing, through a combination of patent-pending software, hardware, and chemistry technologies. The company’s solutions automate industrial 3D printing’s most common post-printing processes including support, resin, and powder removal, as well as surface finishing, enabling customer-ready 3D printed parts at scale and complete digitisation of additive manufacturing through the workflow for the Industry 4.0 factory floor.
“Partnering with HeyGears enables us to broaden access to our top-tier dental post-processing solutions, which perfectly complement HeyGears’ innovative digital dentistry offerings. Together, we can deliver comprehensive production support for dental professionals, covering everything from printing to post-processing,” said Nate Harris, VP of North American Sales at PostProcess Technologies.
