“This acquisition marks an exciting time for our company as we look forward to continued growth in the rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing marketplace,” said In’Tech vice president of sales and marketing Roger Neilson. “With an intense focus on quality, speed and customer service, we have experienced great success in the manufacturing sector, and we are delighted to welcome VistaTek’s employees and customers to our growing organization.”

VistaTek is currently one of the world’s largest Objet-centric service bureaus in the world, according to the company.
