Case Studies

 

Glassimetal has validated its technology through extensive testing and collaboration with market leading companies in several key product sectors including orthodontics, consumer electronics, luxury goods, surgical hardware and robotics.

 

Orthodontic Brackets

Taking advantage of the unique properties of its proprietary materials, Glassimetal produced a next-generation orthodontic bracket

  • The high strength and elasticity of Glassimetal materials enable access to miniaturized designs providing enhanced patient comfort and improved aesthetics

  • The lack of solidification shrinkage in Glassimetal materials enables unparalleled precision with ultra-tight tolerances, enhanced complexity, and improved control

  • Glassimetal materials passed all biological evaluation tests required to qualify as medical device materials

Using its proprietary manufacturing, Glassimetal conducted a pilot production of more than 15,000 orthodontic brackets for evaluation

  • The production yield driven by superb precision far exceeds that of conventional MIM production of stainless steel brackets

  • The ability to mold into net-shape negates the need for post-processing and promotes a streamlined manufacturing process with unparalleled throughput

  • Robotic automation significantly reduces labor requirements, machine infrastructure requirements, and inventory requirements

“Glassimetal's orthodontic bracket represents the first major innovation in conventional bracket technology in decades.”
