Success is... connecting with innovators and entrepreneurs creating new company chances within the rising, high-impact self-discipline of additive production, which is particularly valuable in low volume, large value applications like rapid prototypes, customized end products,
Windows 7 X86, and replacement parts. Specific market focuses include industrial equipment,
Office 2007 Serial, automotive, aerospace,
Office Standard 2010, consumer products, and medical devices. The Southeastern Institute of Manufacturing and Technological innovation is a recognized leader in additive production. The SiMT’s goal is to grow a community of individuals and organizations that can benefit from additive production around its start-of-the-art manufacturing facility and start-up incubator in Florence, SC.
Community members are... product designers and manufacturers of low volume, high value end products; production managers needing higher quality, cost effective replacement parts for production equipment; and financial and service providers as well as vendors to substantial growth organizations involved in additive production.
