Rabo Innovation Loan
We are very proud to announce that AMSYSTEMS BV. has been granted the Rabo Innovation Loan, financing for startups & scale-ups aimed at innovation and development.
Michel Ziekman, Startup & Scale-up banker: "The technology that AMSYSTEMS provides has an impact on the performance of the 3D printing process. This manifests itself in the speed and quality of 3D printing. The entrepreneurs within the company are in the process of launching the first products and are ready to significantly broaden the integration of stereolithographic 3D printing within the manufacturing industry.”
About AMSYSTEMS: AMSYSTEMS is a development and delivery partner for industrial 3D printing technology, providing hardware and software solutions to printer builders and industrial end users. Amongst AMSYSTEMS innovations is, for example, a modular, multi-laser exposure module for high-resolution printing with high productivity, regardless of the size and number of products in the batch. In contrast to conventional subtractive forming technologies, due to the additive nature of the 3D printing process, the basic material is converted into a near finished product; minimising manufacturing waste streams. By industrially scaling up this digital production method, personalized and customer-specific products can be produced quickly and locally. Large-scale storage of stock and international storage is reduced to a USB stick and an internet connection.
Roeland Brugman, CEO & Founder of AMSYSTEMS: "I am convinced that our technology significantly improves the capabilities and quality of resin-based 3D printing processes and enables digital serial production. The Rabobank team is in agreement, and has made capital available with the Rabo Innovation Loan, with which we can take the necessary next steps. Speed and quality are needed in this industry to be able to scale up and deliver 3D printed products cheaper. The annual growth rate in industrial 3D printers is well above 20% and we are feeling the increasing market demand for higher printing speeds. A healthy position to capitalize on our previous technological developments and investments! "
