“Every feature is more or less conventional, but putting them together in a single compact and competitive mechanism is really a challenge.”

"The personalized wrist rehabilitation brace manufactured by 3D Systems’ SLS technology not only guaranteed safety and effectiveness but also showed the unparalleled matching degree while maintaining comfort of a traditional brace."

"3D printing has allowed us to remove most of the limitations of traditional manufacturing methods and focus solely on how we should best solve the problem at hand and design exactly for that solution. It allows us to be 100-percent custom with our insoles. Otherwise we would have to cut …

"Using a combination of FreeForm and rapid prototyping enables us to design and physically produce a high-quality model which as a result, greatly speeds the approval process."

“We use clay or foam for scale models because these materials are easy to modify When changes are requested by the customer or result from an internal design review, we manually reshape the model.”

"Both our competitors and judges were impressed with the quality of our intake system, and many spy shots were taken. Due to the final design from 3D Systems, our engine was able to start dependably and make more efficient use of both fuel and air, which provided consistent performance as …

“It works great. This information is critical, and we obtain it straight from GibbsCAM without the need for additional operations or time studies on the floor.”

"We chose Cimatron because it offered a complete integrated package with logical, menu driven progression through the various modules, enabling us to rapidly implement engineering changes and updates."

"The ProJet 660Pro has allowed us to raise the bar on precision to a new height. The costs of its purchase were quickly recouped, thanks to the cost reductions it provides in product development and the emergence of new capabilities."

“Not only were we able to create a much more intricate intake mount that interfaced with the engine."

“The moment of critical mass, the threshold, the boiling point.”

“Race after race, new components made of complex composites and aerospace alloys see the light after surviving a harsh selection in the R/D and simulation labs.”

“Once the team got their 3D Systems machine, they began using it to develop component prototypes with a size-fit function. The use of solid imaging technology then gradually expanded from rapid prototyping to wind tunnel model manufacturing, allowing our Aero Department to grow from 11 to 80 employees. In Wind …

“The first SLA System parts were installed in a racecar in 2001 and following their success, we have continued to explore the boundaries of these materials. Since the launch of our Advanced Digital Manufacturing (ADM) Centre in 2002, 3D Systems’ technologies have become an effective new manufacturing process that enabled …

“Through use of GibbsCAM solids machining and simulation, we have greatly reduced new process and tooling turn-around time with the ability to verify and simulate feasibility; improved accuracy by replacing drawings with solid models; increased shopfloor confidence; improved safety and quality; and greatly reduced programming, setup, and cycle times. For …
