SINTERIZE service launched in the USA by THINK3D

THINK3D, one of India’s largest rapid prototyping facilities (offering both 3D Printing and traditional manufacturing services), has announced the launch of ‘SINTERIZE’, THINK3D’s satellite leg of the business, in the USA – offering 3D printing services to companies in the United States, and Europe, looking to outsource manufacturing work to India. Currently, all orders submitted on the SINTERIZE website will be fulfilled by THINK3D in India. However, THINK3D intends to bring on numerous service providers from across South East Asia to meet the diverse needs of its consumers.

During the past two years, THINK3D has received an upsurge in inquiries and orders from companies based in the United States and Europe. These are inquiries that would have otherwise been supplied by Chinese manufacturing enterprises. However, as a result of COVID, geopolitical difficulties, and supply chain disruptions, several corporations have begun to deploy a ‘China + 1’ strategy for their outsourcing needs. THINK3D developed SINTERIZE in the United States to address this shift in market dynamics and deliver superior customer support to clients in the United States and Europe.

“We are delighted to launch our service in the USA under the SINTERIZE brand. We got this idea to launch our services in the USA market in late 2019 but, with the onslaught of pandemic, our launch plan took a back seat and we shifted our focus towards manufacturing RT-PCR devices, cartridges and SWABs. With things getting back to normal now, we felt the time was right to launch the service. Having a one-stop shop offering 3D Printing, CNC Machining, Injection Molding services all under one roof, we are confident of delivering high quality service to the customers in the USA”, said Raja Sekhar Upputuri, co-founder and CEO of THINK3D.

Until SINTERIZE has numerous global manufacturing partners across Asia, all projects accepted by SINTERIZE will be performed by THINK3D at its location in India. THINK3D also intends to install industrial 3D printers in the United States in order to meet the expanding 3D printing needs of local customers.

“I have been observing THINK3D over the last 7 years and what they have achieved in the digital manufacturing space in India in such a short span is phenomenal. Given the expertise THINK3D team gained in this space, we felt it natural to partner with them to launch digital manufacturing services in the USA. We also have plans to roll out an online ordering process and a custom ERP to automate the entire end-to-end workflow. Our goal is to reach $100 million in revenue in the next 3-5 years”, said Kishore Karlapudi, co-founder and CEO of SINTERIZE.

“With a dedicated team of product developers, we helped around 2000 innovators till date translate their ideas into functional products. In many cases, we are also their manufacturing partner for their batch production and mass production needs. With NPD, 3D Scanning, 3D Designing, 3D Printing, CNC Machining, all under one roof, we could provide seamless experience to product innovators and could reduce their time to market drastically”, added Raja Sekhar Upputuri.
