The acquisition of Cubicure is a strategic investment to vertically integrate and scale manufacturing to millions of custom devices per day. This shift to 'direct fabrication' aims to materially reduce resin usage and enable more complex appliance designs, creating needs for new manufacturing software, process monitoring, and supply chain integration.
Filing excerpt
In January 2024, we completed the acquisition of Cubicure GmbH (“Cubicure”), a company that develops, produces and distributes proprietary direct 3D printing technologies that enable us to efficiently and sustainably manufacture our devices without the added step of first creating a mold.
