  • Testimonials

    • “im体育线上登录's best attribute is their attention to detail and customer service. Their willingness and desire to keep in touch with me is impressive, and physical walkthroughs ensure quality standards are being met.” — Todd Frick, Versatek
    • "The Carbon [Digital Light Synthesis] 3D printing process was the perfect half step between late-stage functional prototyping and production. Aesthetics were crucial, and unless told otherwise, no one was able to identify the product was 3D-printed. [The process] accelerated business development and helped reduce risk as we approached tooling." — Michael DiCanzio, independent
    • "As an emerging 3D modeling student at DeSales University, it was an incredibly valuable opportunity to learn more about the new innovations in 3D printing technology and how im体育线上登录 couples its technical expertise with artistic value such as custom finishing to deliver a final product that exceeds the client's expectations." — Austin Kaplan, Desales University
    • “im体育线上登录's turnaround times are exceptional, and their prices compared to others are always better. There's a lot more value added in working with im体育线上登录.” — Matthew Bellenoit, B. Braun Medical
    • "Our first experience with im体育线上登录 last month was excellent. Quoting was prompt, engineering emailed and we spoke on the phone about a potential issue with the geometry of the parts so there were no surprises, the service was fast and delivery quick, the printed parts were of excellent quality, and all of the staff I dealt with were courteous and professional. You guys knocked it out of the park!" — Chris Davenport, RPC
    • "im体育线上登录 has been most helpful in responding to our needs. Their knowledge of stereolithography and CAD, and their application of these technologies has helped us reshape our ideas to reality in the shortest possible time frame." — Kenneth Raines, B. Braun Medical

We’re celebrating 24 years in business by taking a look back at all we’ve accomplished over the years! Follow our timeline below, from im体育线上登录’s beginnings back in 1994 through the future!

1994

  • im体育线上登录 opens up their first facility in Northampton, PA in January under founders Ron Belknap and Ray Biery. Their first offerings include Stereolithography (SLA) , RTV molds, and urethane castings . The company operates well with these technologies, though Belknap and Biery keep up-to-date on the emerging technologies in 3D printing and additive manufacturing throughout the years.

2013

  • A fire in early March consumes im体育线上登录’s facility and most of its machinery. The im体育线上登录 team meets early the following morning and continues operations almost immediately, first operating out of a nearby diner and then at the residence of co-owner Biery until they are able to secure a new location. In place of their lost machinery, im体育线上登录 utilizes its various contacts and vendors to continue to provide services.
  • In October, a new facility is located in Allentown, PA, and the im体育线上登录 team sets up shop once more at their new location on Grant Way.
  • After nearly 20 years with im体育线上登录, Biery retires towards the end of 2013.

2014

  • PolyJet is added as a new 3D printing service at im体育线上登录.
  • im体育线上登录 undergoes a rebranding process, steering away from rapid prototyping more towards additive manufacturing. New, modern branding is introduced in the form of a new logo, specific brand colors, and more.

2016

  • Early in the year, Bob Holbrook is added in a new position at im体育线上登录 – sales and marketing manager. With 40+ years of experience working within the plastics injection molding industry, Holbrook adds significant value to the im体育线上登录 team as he promotes the future of additive manufacturing.

2017

  • A second member of the marketing team is added in January: Dale Bond, hired on as Marketing Coordinator . With ample experience in digital marketing and social media coordination, Bond rounds out the marketing team at im体育线上登录.
  • The new HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) technology is introduced into the facility in April; it is the first unit installed on the East Coast. The printer is installed in a back room that is a recent expansion of the facility space. Orders for parts printed with the MJF printer begin flowing in almost instantly as this new technology takes off.
  • Gary Mann, a veteran of im体育线上登录 who has been with the company from the beginning, retires . A retirement party with the whole im体育线上登录 family is held in August at Samuel Owens Restaurant & Bar in Coplay, PA.
  • Space at the Allentown facility is further expanded, adding an additional 2,000 sq ft, and im体育线上登录 adds two FDM printers and a smoothing station to its line-up.

2018

  • As we head into the new year, our focus turns to reaching out to the Lehigh Valley through our “Own the Valley Campaign.” We’re attending and participating in events right here in our backyard and making sure that everyone in the area knows the im体育线上登录 name. We’re also looking to automate post-processing of our MJF parts and optimize production of this new technology, while researching better ways to recycle materials within our facility. In the mean time, check out all our 2018 upcoming events and follow us into the new year!
