“Every time we avoid cutting a tool, we save 8 to 12 weeks.”

"With SAF we have gained multiple new customers that were previously out of our reach, either due to cost, turnaround times, or the inability to mass produce parts. The largest orders from these have exceeded 1000 pcs."

“Vibration affects filter efficiency, so it was important to mount the prototype directly on the engine for accurate testing.”

“We’ve used [3D printing] for tooling new and replacement parts, improving the factory line, and creating custom-made parts and functional prototypes to accelerate the decision-making process. Its immediate and positive impact is reflected in the fact that in the first year of integrating the machine, we more than made a …

“Athletes are not engineers. So I needed to translate their words into several prototypes as quickly as I could. Without 3D printing, it would not have been possible.”

“We do not want to compromise accuracy for speed. Stratasys’ 3D Printers assure us that we can have both.”

“We expect that the study will show that the neural triage device will protect student athletes from injury and make contact sports safer.”

“3D printing definitely offered us a huge advantage over other labs when it comes to being able to print models from intra-oral scanners. It definitely brought us new customers.”

“[Students] love to see what’s on the screen come to life, and because of the iterative nature of the 3D printing process, they can design and build again, which gives them motivation to understand analysis techniques.”

“We tried to understand why nature came up with these designs, which we are testing with 3D printed prototypes. We call these biomimetic composites, and while this is an ongoing investigation, we have already identified many different applications.”

“Having this array of 3D printers is immensely helpful for verifying designs and testing out early prototypes in order to arrive at the design we want to move forward with. Four design iterations can amount to several months of time without 3D printing. Now, we can have the part in …

“They’re the internal mounting fixtures inside the housing. Think of a post of a C-clamp you would put on the edge of something and screw it down to hold it in place to be used as a guide so that the wires travel a certain path.”

“The ability to produce life-like medical models in-house on our Stratasys 3D printer saves three to four hours in OR time per surgery, which at a cost of £5,000 an hour, is a substantial cost saving.”

“To maximize our budget and impact we focused on the most sophisticated 3D printers possible. If we don’t have state-of-the-art equipment, there’s no reason for businesses to come to us.”

“We can now make nylon prototypes with nearly the exact same properties as production parts.”
