What happens when a materials company wants to jailbreak an entire industry? Triton3D sought to find out when it became a manufacturer of 3rd party Stratasys compatible filaments. Triton3D has engineered an entire portfolio of materials to run on the Stratasys’s fused deposition modeling (FDM) machines, freeing Stratasys customers to break out of the high-priced filaments offered by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and start printing at a serious discount.
Triton3D was started in 2016 as an offshoot of well-known materials supplier 3DXTECH. Both companies were acquired by private equity firm CORE Industrial Partners in 2021 and have benefited greatly from the resources of the much larger parent company. To learn more about this journey and how Triton3D threw a wrench into the world of FDM, we spoke to their Sales Manager, Brandon Funke.
