Anisoprint (Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg), a manufacturer of continuous fiber 3D printing systems, and Systemcreate (Tokyo, Japan) have announced an exclusive distribution partnership that will accelerate the adoption of 3D-printed continuous fiber-reinforced composites in the Japanese market. As part of the deal, Systemcreate will exclusively distribute Anisoprint’s proprietary continuous fiber coextrusion (CFC) technology and the Composer 3D printing system in Japan.
As seen in the recent deals in China, India and now Japan, exclusive distributor agreements have become Anisoprint’s main method for establishing stable and strong business relationships that encourages dedicated and committed work.
“Exclusive agreements are a cornerstone to building trust, close business relationships, and high productivity,” Takafumi Sakamoto, director of Asia and Pacific at Anisoprint, says. “We value the efforts and commitment that Systemcreate offers us and are eager to start working with such a strong and experienced partner.”
Systemcreate plans to invest more resources in marketing to promote the Composer systems, establish a team of engineers with in-depth understanding of the CFC 3D printing technology and provide outstanding customer support service.
“I am convinced that signing an exclusive distribution agreement for Anisoprint Composers will lead to our further growth,” Masayoshi Kawakami, president at Systemcreate, contends. “It is also my great pleasure that we can contribute and help Japanese engineers develop innovative products by using continuous carbon fiber 3D printers. We will now start collaborating closely with Anisoprint to accelerate cultivating the Japanese market.”
Anisoprint has also recently entered the North American market.
