“Our production services for end-use parts have become much more flexible and tailored to our customers’ needs since we introduced the Fortus 900mc into our manufacturing process. Before we integrated 3D printing into production, we were limited to higher quantities of parts in order to make the project cost-effective. For small volume part demands from customers, we would store excess parts until they were used, discarded or became too outdated to use. With the Fortus 900mc, we can now create a design that is 100 percent customized to specific requirements and optimized several times before it is 3D printed. This takes our production time down from weeks to a matter of days, in a way that we can now produce a single customized part cost-effectively in low volumes.”
“The new face mask is convenient to fabricate, and effective in improving and treating facial hypertrophic scars thereby improving the quality of life for burn survivors.”
“The 3D printer has been a game-changer for us. The ability to 3D print curved production tools in robust materials made us realize the importance of having tools that perfectly fit the panels. Not only does it make the work of our operators much easier, it frees up resources and increases our overall productivity.”
“The new SUP706 support material is a game-changer for making medical models because it drastically reduces the time required to remove support from complex geometries and internal passageways.”
“3D printing technology helped us advance the design and development of the Altura Zenith drone far more quickly and at a much lower cost than would have been achievable with conventional methods.”
“With our Stratasys J750, we 3D printed the entire working prototype in one go with all the color specifications our customers required, while reducing the production time by 40%.”
“When evaluating products for design and functionality, this exceptional level of realism and multi-material capability at the prototyping stage is a major advantage for customers, aiding decision-making and accelerating time-to-market.”
“In founding Ambionics, it is my goal to ensure that limb deficient children like my son are not faced with the current constraints and delays of traditional prosthetic manufacturing. 3D printing enabled us to design and print a solution very quickly and cost-effectively.”
“We’ve had kids that were barely hanging in there in school and 3D printing is what really lit them up and got them to the point where they were on the path to a high-paying career.”
“3D printing injection molds enabled us to quickly produce functional prototypes that we could test in the field, dramatically reducing our time to market.”
"Additive manufacturing allowed us to overcome tooling and traditional manufacturing limitations and produce unusually shaped parts on demand, cost-effectively. We had the parts produced and in our hands within several days – something that would have been physically impossible without Stratasys’ 3D printers."
“It was clear that it would have been impossible to achieve the level of realism required in such a short time frame with conventional, hand model-making. This was always a job for 3D printing.”
“Our goal with this project was to show the aerospace industry how quickly you can go from designing and building to flying a 3D printed jet-powered aircraft.”
“FDM technology and ABS thermoplastics have been a great combination for us. They provide us with the efficient solution to help us optimize our design and improve market delivery time by 10 to 15 percent.”
“The efficient process allows us to do more iterations than we could with other processes. That results in better-designed components."
