Ultimaker是专业3D打印领域的全球领导者，今天在国际妇女节宣布，通过与美国增材制造和3D打印技术研究、发现、创造和创新的领先组织America Makes新建立的合作伙伴关系，捐赠20多台3D打印机。这些打印机将被用于全国各地的高中，通过一个名为Additive Edge的新项目，提高年轻女性对3D打印技术的认识和创业机会。
添加剂边缘是一个国家外联计划，激励美国的高中生。探索添加剂制造（3D打印）和企业家精神。该计划将将Ultimaker打印机分发给中学，从而成功地招募女学生的添加剂制造课程。通过工程课程的每个学生都可以包括职业简历或大学申请的添加剂制造经验。
As the world celebrates International Women’s Day 2021, only 13 percent of engineers in the additive manufacturing industry are women[1] – a scenario unlikely to change in the next decade without a coordinated effort from companies, educational institutions and civic organizations to support young women pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
在田纳西州孟菲斯组装的可访问和可靠的Ultimaker打印机将使美国的年轻女性能够扩大与添加剂制造业的创新潜力，因为他们学习，实验和创新3D印刷。
“We’re passionate about making professional 3D printers, software, materials, and services that are versatile and easy to use for everyone,” said Greg Elfering, president of Ultimaker Americas, “But more importantly, we want to add sustainable value as a company and foster an environment of equity that enables the next generation of female engineers to leverage 3D printing and solve the world’s challenges with additive manufacturing. Together we can make it happen.”
“我们很高兴为Ultimaker提供了3D打印技术 - 我们需要在美国技术领域和工程中发展妇女的代表性的关键资源 - 特别是添加剂制造，”美国乔希克莱默队（Josh Cramer）表示，“美国乔希克莱默队”劳动力总监“表示。“我们相信追求这些类型的职业的女性人数不仅会使添加剂行业效益，而不是所有的制造业。”
Ultimaker对美国的捐款只有最新的承诺，公司已经提高了工程职业和添加剂制造业的女性代表性。过去，该公司捐赠了十几个3D打印机，以支持Makergirl的National #MakergirlGoesMobile运动，为农村，欠缺社区的年轻女孩进行3D打印会议。
