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

"After we did our evaluation, we found nothing that could beat what was offered by Cimatron. It’s fast and easy to operate. There is other software out there, but Cimatron is the only one that is made specifically for tool and mold shops."

“In this business, time is money. Something that used to take us 16 weeks to build, we can now build in 10–12 weeks using Cimatron.”

"Students are learning to use the very latest 3D printing technology even before some of their future employers have it. And they're emerging from the process inspired, and with artifacts that can make a profound impact on admissions and hiring decisions."

“Since working with 3D Systems we have really honed our design protocol in-house. 3D Systems has brought new perspective and knowledge about optimizing our designs for high volume 3D printing, improving post-processing methods, and increasing the yield of high precision components from each build plate.”

“Instead of going through pattern-making, casting and machining—a 16-week process—we can have prototype impellers and volutes made in a couple of days."

“We have several critical flatness and parallelism requirements, and we need to make sure we are delivering on our commitment to quality at every turn.”

“That’s the magic of in-house 3D printing. I am less stressed in my design and am able to achieve goals that are impossible using a traditional approach.”

“By stacking parts we are able to print in batches of 100, and have reduced the time it takes to prepare a build from 30-60 minutes to just 6-10 minutes. The combination of stacking and production-grade materials makes Figure 4 ready for production.”

"3D Systems’ technology transfer and consulting approach has enabled us to support our customers with their design and engineering challenges. We can better help our customers scale their ideas down to keep them printable and bring the benefits of additive manufacturing to their application."

“I think our drive to help others is one of the reasons Rapid Application Group is growing so quickly. I’ve never believed in wishing things were different, but I will absolutely put in the work that’s required for change.”

“Making these segmented patterns worked pretty well for us. At first we were concerned that the DuraForm parts might fracture since the patterns undergo a lot of pressure and abrasion from the sand. But it worked very successfully.”

“That’s the great thing about this kind of technology. Parts are no longer lost to time. We’re ready to go for another hundred years.”

“Since fixing the original valve cover was not a realistic option for us, my approach was to enhance the original part with help from some new technologies.”

“When this project is finished, you will be able to take any portion of the statue and replicate it, This is significant because it means the statue as a symbol of freedom will always be safe for future generations.”
