Keystone Industries and Nexa3D join forces to deliver higher productivity and performance 3D printing solutions for the dental industry

Nexa3D, the maker of ultrafast polymer production 3D printers, and Keystone Industries, a trusted dental manufacturer of biocompatible, cutting-edge, patented photopolymer resins, announced on January 19th 2021 a collaboration to make all Keystone KeyPrint® 3D printing dental resins available worldwide on Nexa3D’s ultrafast NXE 400 3D printers. Under this agreement, both companies will combine their extensive dental, photopolymer and 3D printing capabilities to deliver the highest productivity, precision and performance 3D printing solutions to the dental market.

"We are thrilled to tailor our entire portfolio of KeyPrint resins for Nexa3D, a company that is fast emerging as an additive polymer market leader"

 

KeyPrint resins create innovative high quality products for the lab and clinic.

This powerful new combination comes with Keystone’s best-in-class, FDA-cleared night guard resin. By responding to market needs, focusing on product quality, and rigorously ensuring that all KeyPrint products are safe, effective, and compliant with international standards, Keystone is fast becoming the leading choice for dental labs and clinics everywhere.  All Keystone precision dental resins are manufactured in the USA, and a large selection of the range is available through DB Lab Supplies in the UK and EIRE.

“We are thrilled to tailor our entire portfolio of KeyPrint resins for Nexa3D, a company that is fast emerging as an additive polymer market leader,” said Keystone Dental President Ira Rosenau. “During our extensive internal optimisation and validation testing, we confirmed that the NXE 400 produces outstanding quality prints at high volumes, making it an ideal additive manufacturing partner for the dental industry. We expect Nexa3D users to have an outstanding experience with our growing line of KeyPrint resins.”

Nexa3D’s ultrafast and high-resolution NXE 400 3D printer features revolutionary patented technology that combines superior build volume, extreme print uniformity, advanced process algorithms, modular design for onsite automation, and intelligent optimisation. Offering an unprecedented 16-litre build volume and up to 20X productivity gains, the NXE 400 is transforming the 3D printing industry in the same way broadband internet opened new possibilities compared to dial-up access.

 

KeySplint Soft is the first flexible 3D printed resin.

The printer yields orders of magnitude part-throughput gains while offering the lowest cost of ownership in its class on the market. Nexa3D enters the lucrative dental market armed with all of Keystone’s game changing KeyPrint resins, including KeySplint Soft, a material that delivers a unique combination of the strength needed to protect teeth with added flexibility for improved patient comfort, all with a transparent and aesthetic appearance.

The printer is also fully interoperable with all leading digital dental workflows and providers.

Working together

Keystone Industries and Nexa3D are working together to apply circular economy principles into every phase of their material formulation and printing process. Through the implementation of end-to-end validated workflows, both companies are rigorously measuring and improving on what matters: minimising process waste, reducing energy consumption per part, and working with customers around the world to reduce their overall carbon footprint.
