ing up with the desired shape, 3D printers build up objects by applying material in layers. The additive process of 3D printing enables “free” fabrication of complex geometries, without the need for fixtures or molds. PPI’s additive manufacturing technology can quickly create tangi- ble parts for customers to fit to their designs within hours of printing. Throughout the assembly and test processes, 3D printing is a key advantage, especially for aerospace, defense and medical device manufac- turing. PPI’s additive manufacturing can transform 3D CAD renderings into functional precision plastic and elastomeric components on a quick- turn schedule. The company can de- liver high-resolution models, proto- types and injection-molded parts on demand. This reduces costs, stream- lines operations and accelerates time to market.
The company’s 3D printing serv- ices offer a high level of accuracy, mul- tiple form factors, surface finish, strength, and part quality to support complex manufacturing requirements.

botic applications. Everything new we develop is for mobile applica- tions. Our customers can monitor the entire plant’s operation and board-by-board production on each line on their mobile devices.”
Global Expansion
Optimal Electronics is also in the midst of an international expan- sion. The company signed a reseller agreement with ETEK-Europe for sales in Europe. Optimal will open a support and development office in the Republic of Montenegro in early 2018. Optimal also signed distribu- tion agreements for Southeast Asia and China, and it will open its first office in the Shanghai Free Trade Zone by the end of 2017. “We are very excited about our expansion in Europe and Asia. We have cus- tomers in Europe, Malaysia, Singa- pore, and China and want to use those references to expand our cus- tomer base,” says Vujosevic. “We are also increasing our marketing reach to enhance our brand recognition. There is much interest in Industry 4.0 Software solutions in Europe and Asia that we currently do not find in the United States.” Optimal will con- tinue aggressive direct sales in the U.S. and Mexico, and plans to open an office in Monterrey, Mexico, in 2018, supporting new customers and increasing sales efforts throughout the country. With companies like Optimal in the marketplace, the smart factory is closer and easier to implement than ever.
