MORRIS TECHNOLOGIES BECOMES
EOS E-MANUFACTURING PARTNER

news!


Novi, Mich., August 14th, 2006: EOS, the world-leading manufacturer of laser-sintering systems, has named Morris Technologies as an e Manufacturing partner. e Manufacturing describes the fast, flexible and cost-efficient production directly from electronic data. In its partner role, Morris Technologies will support EOS's efforts in raising the level of acceptance for laser-sintering as a viable production method.

Morris Technologies brings a wealth of laser-sintering expertise into the program, which makes the company an ideal partner for the initiative. The product development firm based in Cincinnati, Ohio, operates four machines for Direct Metal Laser-Sintering (DMLS) and also acted as a pilot customer for the latest EOS material, CobaltChrome MP1.

Morris Technologies will contribute to the e-Manufacturing program by identifying and implementing suitable production applications as well as introducing the manufacturing industry to the opportunities and advantages. "We see EOS as the preferred supplier of layer-manufacturing technologies," explains Greg Morris, principal and COO of Morris Technologies. The firm, which was the first U.S. organization to install an EOSINT M system, has had tremendous demand for its DMLS-based services and is now the largest DMLS user world-wide. With its capacity of four systems, Morris can quickly react and deliver on opportunities that implement laser-sintering as manufacturing technology. The company sees great potential for e Manufacturing applications in industries such as aerospace and medical.

Morris, the first US-based e Manufacturing Partner, joins FKM (Biedenkopf-Wallau, Germany), Materialise (Leuven, Belgium) and the University of Wolverhampton (Wolverhampton, UK) in the e-Manufacturing partnership program.
