“It’s extremely important for us to show the world what our technology is capable of.” This is the conclusion Tyler Alvarado, the CEO of Continuous Composites, made when carrying a complex carbon fiber 3D printed sample part across the RAPID + TCT trade show floor in 2017. He was met with a tonne of questions about a technology, Continuous Fiber 3D Printing (CF3D), that was still in development, still operating behind the curtain, and perhaps better demonstrated than explained.

Continuous Composites is opening a 7,500 square foot facility for research, development, and additive manufacturing in Idaho. The new building demonstrates their patented Continuous Fiber 3D Printing (CF3D) technology at the largest scale to date, increasing their previous build volume by 25 times.

On the international stage of JEC World, JEC Innovation Awards have brought in 1,800 companies worldwide. JEC Innovation Awards reward composites champions, based on criteria such as partner involvement in the value chain, technicality or commercial applications of innovations.

JEC World, the world’s largest composites exhibition and conference, recognized organizations that have developed “outstanding” products and technology. These Innovation Awards were divided into 10 different categories with 30 finalists selected from more than 100 nominees. The winner of the new 3D Printing category was Continuous Composites, in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

CF3D patented technology has been selected as a finalist for the JEC Innovation Awards 2019 in the 3D Printing category. CF3D is a revolutionary composites manufacturing process with a rapid curing thermoset inside the print head.

The goal is to revolutionize the manufacturing industry with continuous fiber 3D printing, which uses robotics to print in free space. "It completely changes the way you can use composite materials," said Continuous Composites CEO Tyler Alvarado. And this groundbreaking technology is being developed at the company's facility in Coeur d'Alene...

Continuous Composites got its start with a stab wound. When a strand of fiberglass punctured Ken Tyler’s skin, the North Idaho inventor started thinking about the strength of the lightweight material. “It’s an amazing technology, and it’s going to change how things are built,” said Tyler Alvarado, the company’s Chief Executive Officer.

Coeur d'Alene is widely known for its resort atmosphere, beautiful beaches, and outdoor living. However, less than one block from its historic and touristy main street, and a stone's throw from the lake, is something few would expect to see - Continuous Composites, one of the world's top innovators in Continuous Fiber 3D Printing (CF3D)

As the state’s premier business innovation awards program, the Idaho Innovation Awards recognize groundbreaking accomplishments in five categories. Five winners and 10 finalists were recognized at the awards ceremony, a segment of the ITC’s ninth annual Hall of Fame celebration, held at Boise Centre.
