Tabs are an effective way to organize information on a website page when there is a large amount of content that needs to be separated into distinct categories. Label your tabs with one or two words that define each category of information.

When styling your tabs, highlight the selected tab by giving it a color that differs from your unselected tabs, so that it's easy for your visitors to navigate.

A material advantage 

If it can be powderized and sintered, Holo can print it. Holo’s binder technology is compatible with a wide spectrum of materials including metals, complex alloys and ceramics. As a slurry, it requires no costly, time consuming powder handling. Material efficiency is very high, virtually all material is incorporated in printed parts.

Technology advantages 

Pure Copper RF Coils

99.9% material purity

Holo’s proprietary polymer is engineered to vaporize during part sintering. The result is highly pure parts with properties approaching bulk material. PureForm™ material purity exceeds that of other additive approaches.

As an example, Holo’s additive manufactured PureForm copper is 99.9% pure, achieving thermal and electrical conductivities comparable to bulk copper.



Finest resolution

With features down to 50 microns with 100 micron walls, the PureForm™ platform prints parts previously only possible with expensive Swiss CNC machining.

Unparalleled AM resolution allows complex internal geometries in spaces where tools won’t fit, delivers thinner walls than MIM, directly prints functional threads and provides superior gas and liquid flow characteristics with intricate, powder-free internal channels.

Copper Lattice 100um
Patented

Strong technology foundation

Holo has expertise in printer development, materials science, product design and algorithm development. The company has 22 patents and 34 patents pending covering a wide variety of subjects including additive manufacturing, design for additive, PureForm printer design, PureForm materials and thermal design.
