PCE Group Invest in Additive Manufacturing Technology

- High levels of detail and quality
- Cost and material effectiveness
- Creativity and customisation possibilities
- Limitless shapes and geometry
- Flexible material development
- Rapid turnaround times
The PCE GROUP are delighted to continue investing into emerging technologies and hope that its new additive manufacturing facilities will become a vital weapon in its arsenal, as they continue to grow within the pharmaceutical, ocular and medical sectors.
PCE GROUP Managing Director, James Cook, commented: “We have made tremendous strides in growing our market share within medical, ocular and pharmaceutical sectors, underpinned by our specialisms and in house capabilities. We look forward to unleashing the power of replicative technologies, as our automation becomes more intricate and bespoke in nature. This will undoubtedly have a positive effect on project lead times and contribute toward greater degrees of accuracy and quality, for which PCE is renowned.”
