Merrimack, NH, March 23, 2011 — Solidscape®, Inc., the leading manufacturer of 3D high precision printers for lost wax casting and mold making applications, announces the hiring of Artsupport GmbH, as its representative in Switzerland that will be marketing Solidscape 3D wax printers to jewelry manufacturers and designers.
Artsupport has been a supplier of tools and equipment to the jewelry and watch-making industry since 1999. As an involved member of this community, the company has consistently worked to bolster Swiss manufacturing by supporting schools and student advocate programs as well as large manufacturers.

The Solidscape T76®plus and R66®plus printers for producing fully castable, high-resolution wax models use an additive technology called drop-on-demand (DoD™) and employ the SCP™ (Smooth Curvature Printing) technology that provides high-precision and accuracy. Both printers use the fully castable, proprietary Indura®Cast and Indura®Fill materials that leave no residual ash, resulting in no shrinkage during the burnout process.
