Phoenix Analysis & Design Technologies, Inc. (PADT), provider of numerical simulation, product development and 3-D printing services and products, has acquired the Stratasys reseller business of CADCAM Systems, based in Boulder, CO. "This move immediately boosts PADT's existing 3-D printer sales and support customer base by approximately 30%, adding clients in Colorado, Utah and New Mexico, making PADT the largest distributor of 3-D printing systems to commercial customers in the Four Corners region," said a company spokesperson.
CADCAM Systems has been providing 3-D printing sales and support, working with global manufacturer Stratasys, to help build usage in the Rocky Mountain States. As customers transition to PADT for system support, consumables and future machines, they will receive service now from PADT's offices in Littleton, CO, Murray, UT, and Albuquerque, NM. Additional support will come from PADT's headquarters in Tempe, AZ. Customers will have the added advantage of access to PADT's other products and services, including 3-D printing services, ANSYS simulation software, product development and simulation services.
"When we heard that CADCAM Systems was interested in selling its Stratasys business, we were immediately interested," said Rey Chu, Co-Owner at PADT. "We knew they took excellent care of their customers and had strong client bases in Colorado, New Mexico and Utah, three states in which we have been growing aggressively. It was an obvious fit for both companies."
The acquisition will have no impact on the number of people employed at either company.
During the transition, customers who purchased maintenance agreements from CADCAM Systems will be serviced by them until they expire, at which time they will have the option to renew with PADT. Some 3-D printing material supplies will be available from CADCAM Systems as well during the transition, with PADT taking over that service in the coming months.
