ABOUT QUICKPARTS
Quickparts is considered the originator and pioneer of a full digital manufacturing platform that delivers on-demand additive and traditional manufacturing services across a wide range of capabilities from rapid prototypes to volume production for customers in a wide range of industry, including aerospace, motorsport and medical sectors.
Using our Direct Metal Printing (DMP) technology, we build metal material in layers using a high intensity laser until it becomes a solid product. Unlike conventional production techniques, this process does not render any material loss, nor does it require any tooling. It does however, enable designers to manufacture very complex geometries, which are not producible using the traditional techniques.
