Alpha Precision Group (APG), a divison of Nicholas Portland Inc., now offers industrial production on its Tritone Dominant system at its Ridgway, Pennsylvania, facility. Tritone Technologies is a provider of metal and ceramic additive manufacturing (AM) technology for industrial production.
APG provides highly engineered powder metal, metal injection molding (MIM) and AM components serving a diverse customer base with a range of high-performance applications.
“We believe that APG is a technology leader and is committed to investing into that position. Adding the Tritone Dominant with its MoldJet technology is a strong sign of our commitment to offer advanced technology to the marketplace and our customers,” says Stephen P. Madill, APG executive vice president of sales & marketing. “This new approach to additive manufacturing (aka 3D Metal Printing) offers a new tool that will be beneficial for our customers as we satisfy their total needs for the technology.”
The Dominant system is based on Tritone’s MoldJet technology, a “powder-free” AM system that enables industrial production of high-quality metal and ceramic parts at an industrial speed. Built for producing a large quantity of high-density parts with complex geometries and a variety of metal and ceramic materials, the technology enables parallel manufacturing of parts of various sizes, shapes and applications. With this technology it’s easy to choose between a variety of metal and ceramic materials, and it offers the speed and simplicity of the switchover between materials.
“We are extremely excited to see Alpha Precision Group’s commitment to invest in our Dominant system and offer this advanced technology to their customers,” says Omer Sagi, Tritone vice president, products and business development. “Partnering with this technology leader marks a significant and strategic milestone for Tritone as we enter the North American market. We look forward to collaborating with APG to expand access to our technology and suite of applications and materials.”
