Nano Dimension Partners with Productivity Inc.; Expands Reseller Network
October 31, 2018 | Globe NewswireEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
Nano Dimension announced a new reseller agreement with Productivity Inc., significantly expanding the company’s North American channel partner ecosystem. Productivity Inc. will promote Nano Dimension’s award-winning DragonFly Pro additive manufacturing platform for printed electronics in the Upper Midwest region, while its related company, MMT, will cover the Rocky Mountain region. This new channel partnership follows multiple recent additions to Nano Dimension’s North American reseller network and represents significant growth of the company’s thriving partner ecosystem and sales reach.
As part of the reseller agreement, Productivity will purchase Nano Dimension’s award-winning DragonFly Pro 3D printer and make the technology available to its large customer base.
The resellers announced by Nano Dimension in recent weeks deepen and widen the company’s reach within the corporate and government sectors while strengthening its channel network to cover all U.S. regions. In addition, the channel partners help augment Nano Dimension’s growing global presence: since the commercial release of the DragonFly Pro eleven months ago, Nano Dimension has expanded its reseller network across Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America.
Nano Dimension’s DragonFly Pro 3D printer transforms electronics development by enabling companies to reinvent their products and how they create them. The high-resolution system lets designers and engineers 3D print metal and polymer simultaneously. The DragonFly technology enables IP-secure, in-house manufacturing or prototyping of HD functional electronics such as sensors, antennas, molded interconnect devices, printed circuit boards and another innovative circuitry.
“Nano Dimension continues to meet its milestones, which include expanding our global presence. The addition of these well respected, quality resellers gives us partner coverage in all U.S. regions, enabling us to better service local demand. It also provides more opportunities for product developers and electrical engineers to exploit the advantages of multi-material additive manufacturing for prototyping and short run manufacturing,” said Simon Fried, President of Nano Dimension USA Inc. “We see this as a significant milestone in our strategic growth plan as a global leader in precision additive manufacturing solutions for electronics.”
Productivity Inc., founded in 1968, is a leading machine tool distributor serving the Upper Midwest United States. The addition of the DragonFly Pro further boosts its existing additive manufacturing product portfolio to include the unique capability of combining conductive and dielectric materials in a single print, enabling time and cost savings as well as agile development processes. With more than 80 service employees, strong engineering and sales teams and long-term relationships with manufacturers, Productivity’s product portfolio includes more than 30 machine tool builders and over 250 tooling and accessory lines.
“We are excited to introduce this technology to our customers. It’s a truly game changing opportunity for manufacturers in our area to accelerate their productivity in printed electronics,” said Greg Buck, President of Productivity Inc.
