Dec. 28, 2017

Nano Dimension Ltd. announced this week that it has sold a a DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D printer to a leading European technology research institution and to a leading European aerospace and defense supplier.

The research institution chose the DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D printer to enhance its research and development of autonomous systems. “We see a great potential to expand the use of 3D printing to developing fields such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, and automation,” said Amit Dror, CEO of Nano Dimension. “From rapid prototyping of functional circuits to testing and custom manufacturing, 3D-printed electronics opens a whole new world of possibilities in design and engineering, and we’re honored to be a part of this institute’s research to develop future autonomous systems for a wide range of industries. This is now the second DragonFly 2020 Pro going to a leading global technology research institution. This bears testimony to Nano Dimension’s belief that its advanced 3D printed electronics systems are an indispensable tool for cutting-edge research institutions looking into robotics, electrical components, sensors, arrays, antennas, as well as other sophisticated circuitry and electronics.”

The aerospace and defense supplier has purchased the DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D Printer for professional electronics manufacturing. The international tier 1 supplier of systems and components will take delivery of the DragonFly 2020 Pro at its corporate research and technology center.

“We are thrilled to announce the sale of our ground-breaking commercial DragonFly 2020 Pro to a leading European aerospace and defense supplier,” said Dror. “The printer was officially presented for the first time at IDtechEx and productronica, in November 2017….” He added that the company has been working with additive manufacturing technologies for several years and will now “…be able to produce functional electronic circuit prototypes overnight to enable true-part validation testing and explore new opportunities for product performance.”
