Company Info
- Company Description
- Nowadays, the majority of the high performance composite companies face problems such as high time to market and lead time, use of moluds for parts production with a related increase of fabrication costs and limited repeatability due to the low automation of the process. SphereCube is developing a system to solve these issues for high performance composites, combining 3D printing, laser sources and high strenght composite materials. Currently, there are start-ups on the market already involved in composites 3D printing but the difference between SphereCube and every other startup can be found in the matrix material (thermosetting resin) and/or in the curing method. SphereCube has indeed developed and patented a laser-based system to thermally cure thermosets, in order to increase the mechanical performances of the final composite material and to allow the use of traditional and bio-based resins
