“None of this would have been feasible without 3D printing. We printed whatever parts we could because we didn’t want to send it to manufacturing and lose control over the timing and the quality. There’s a real benefit to having a part in your hand and evaluating it with very little effort or manpower.”
“GrabCAD Voxel Print has the potential to transform traditional product development. We are creating new design syntheses and automation paradigms to answer different questions and exploit this game-changing technology.”
“When you incorporate business partners into the educational environment, it raises the bar.”
"The big reason to do this is speed and uptime, and building the competency to get up and running more quickly and achieve better [AM] parts.”
"With [3D] printing, you just change the design, click print, and you’re good. It’s very adaptable.”
"With these lifelike 3D models, we can simulate rare and complex pathologies, offer ethical and reproducible training, and push surgical education to the next level.”
"The difference is enormous. What used to involve boiling, plaster, and brute force is now clean, fast, and digitally repeatable."
"This gives us the flexibility to expand our service, support more providers, and deliver repeatable results faster."
"3D printed models can reflect a patient's anatomy with remarkable accuracy. This creates new possibilities for safe, efficient training and planning in veterinary neurosurgery."
"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."
"But it was only with the advent of the Innovation Building dedicated to Roberto Rocca that the 3D Innovation Lab officially saw the light of day in its current form."
“We can now do in an afternoon what used to take us three days.”
"We save a lot of money on not making an injection molding tool by 3D printing the gaskets."
"Neurosurgery is one of the most technically demanding medical professions, warranting a high level of expertise. 3D printing has given medical simulation education a new dimension – to acquire and improve surgical skills and knowledge in a controlled environment with no risk to the real patient.”
"Hands-On Surgical Training (HOST) is the future of Medical Education, and Stratasys multimaterial, multi-color 3D printing technology has opened a wide arena for the development of high-fidelity patient-specific models to complement current neurosurgical training.”
