Hear from Connecticut manufacturers who’ve experienced the benefits of additive manufacturing firsthand

“Our new 3D printer, tested using QSP and funded by the Additive Voucher Program, has given Leaps & Bones a distinct marketing edge and improved sales over the past three months. Connecticut's investment in manufacturing has allowed us to leverage additive technology to quickly bring unique products to market. We are excited about the future of additive technology and its benefits for our small business."

–Leaps & Bones, South Windsor

“Thanks to QSP and the Additive Voucher Program, we were able to assess our needs, select the right 3D printer, and seamlessly integrate it into our operations. Our team has quickly adapted, gaining valuable skills. The printer has improved efficiency and enables us to produce custom tools in hours—tasks that previously required our machine shop. This transformation has been remarkable.”

–Quality Engineering Services, Wallingford

“QSP allowed us to demonstrate the value of 3D printing to our leadership, proving it’s essential for a modern machine shop. The Markforged printer was easy to use and highly accurate, making it perfect for prototyping and fixture creation at a fraction of the cost of traditional methods. CCAT’s selection of reliable equipment and support made this an invaluable opportunity without the capital risk.”

–New England Airfoil Products Inc., Farmington
