“Its range of unique products are tailor-made to meet the needs of customers seeking high performance yet cost-effective 3D solutions. ArtSystems is the longest established specialist distributor in the additive manufacturing sector, and the SHINING 3D range is the perfect fit to further enhance our 3D portfolio.”

The market leader in its field in China, SHINING 3D is focused on the connection between 3D printing and 3D scanning, and provides 3D solutions for industrial manufacturing, education and bio-medical treatment.

SHINING 3D vice president of global sales Oscar Meza says: “As the demand for 3D digitising and 3D printing technology continues to increase, we are excited to partner with ArtSystems to bring our comprehensive range of 3D solutions to British customers.

“To date we have opened two oversea offices to support our steady increase in global business and provide a better service for our customers. One is in Stuttgart, Germany, and the other in San Francisco, USA. Engaging with ArtSystems brings us fully into the UK. This September we also exhibited at the TCT Show 2018 at the NEC, Birmingham, in recognition of the UK’s huge market potential.”
