The Trade War Is On. Is This 3-D Printing’s Moment?

What if, instead of buying your parts from abroad, there was a simpler way to manufacture at home without building a factory. That’s the solution seen by advocates of additive manufacturing, more colloquially known as 3-D printing. Instead of buying parts from a foreign country, additive enthusiasts ask, why not print them in the U.S.?

Boston Micro Fabrication Opens UltraThineer™ Lab; Seeks Laboratory Partners

Following FDA 510(k) clearance for its UltraThineer material last spring, Boston Micro Fabrication (BMF) has opened the UltraThineer Lab at its U.S. headquarters in Maynard, MA, to support testing, manufacturing and sales. The UltraThineer lab will house BMF's proprietary technology to 3D print zirconia veneers that are 0.08mm thick.

3D Printing and Dentistry: 2024’s Progress, 2025’s Promise

Boston Micro Fabrication’s CEO John Kawola explains: “There are new advances in resins and materials approved for dentistry, making additive manufacturing a more attractive, versatile, and realistic option. We’ve also seen 3D printing push new bounds in applications where there’s a need for higher precision and thinner materials, such as veneers.
