It’s always great to see the impact graduates of the UCF Business Incubation Program are having on their industries when they are showcased in the media.
On March 11, Orlando-based nScrypt was part of a larger article featured on AdvancedManufacturing.org
From the article:
It may sound improbable, but for Ken Church, it’s increasingly routine. “We’re not your typical 3D printer,” says Church, co-founder of research firm Sciperio Inc. and president of nScrypt Inc., both located in Orlando, Fla. “Our motion platform has nanometer resolution, 500-nanometer repeatability and one-micron accuracy.”
Unlike most 3D printers, which deposit, sinter or cure entire layers per pass, nScrypt’s “Factory in a Tool” (FiT) uses nozzles that deposit materials at line widths as fine as a few microns. It’s also modular. With automatic tool-changing capability and access to “a vast palette of over 10,000 commercially available materials,” some systems can not only print but also micromill, drill, polish, and laser-cure or sinter features in situ.
NScrypt has also integrated the placement of discrete electronic components. “It’s a manufacturing platform, not just a printer,” Church says. “Print what you can, place what you can’t.”
