Merit3D is on “the leading edge, if not the bleeding edge,” of 3D printing, according to Spencer Loveless, CEO and founder of the two-year-old company based in Price, Utah.
Merit3D has quite literally broken the mold on traditional manufacturing methods by providing a much more economical and agile process, Loveless says. Normally, a company looking to purchase a part would first buy a single, unalterable metal injection mold for $10,000, then have the parts manufactured (usually in China) using the mold.
