Reinforce3D (Amposta, Spain), a technology company pioneering its continuous fiber injection process (CFIP) for internal structural reinforcement, has announced the installation of a Delta system at (Barcelona), a Spanish service bureau specializing in additive manufacturing (AM) and industrial production. Through Pantur, Reinforce3D expands the reach of its technology across European manufacturing hubs.
The integration combines the CFIP process — capable of injecting continuous fiber through predefined internal cavities — with Pantur’s expertise in AM, design optimization and end-use part production. Through this implementation, Pantur will expand its production capabilities, exploring new opportunities to enhance mechanical performance, durability and weight reduction for high-demand sectors such as automotive, aerospace, electronics and medical devices. Furthermore, both teams will validate reinforced geometries, study material compatibility and optimize parameters for short- and long-run manufacturing environments.
“We are transforming reinforcement from a manual step into an integrated, automated process,” explains Blanca Garro, CEO of Reinforce3D. “This installation at Pantur reflects our continued momentum in bringing CFIP to real industrial production, making high-performance reinforcement accessible to manufacturers across Europe.”
Building on Reinforce3D’s CFIP technology, Pantur will leverage the system to produce pilot components and functional parts that demonstrate the full mechanical and structural benefits of continuous fiber reinforcement. “Integrating CFIP into our workflow allows us to move beyond conventional 3D printing, offering structural-grade components with enhanced stiffness and durability,” says Carles Martínez, Pantur CEO.
