Additionally, DMP Monitoring facilitates real-time process monitoring to enable informed decisions on product quality. Combining 3D Systems' and GF Machining Solutions' sales and support networks, DMP Factory 500 customers will have access to a distribution network operating in more than 50 countries. In addition to local technical support, customers will have access to metals manufacturing applications experts at Customer Innovation Centers (CICs) in Leuven, Belgium; Denver, Colorado and Stabio, Switzerland.
