“The products we produce haven’t just got to look good, they have to perform really well as well. When I came into the company and looked at how much we were outsourcing, one of the things I looked at was cost for things like tooling, but also the flexibility that if we have an idea, how we can change it and how to change it quickly.”
"[With 3D printing], we are raising the standard of care and doing it quicker and more accurately than they did before."
“There’s no end in sight to what we think 3D printing can do for us. We plan to incorporate it into our production facility as much as we can going forward. The balance of strength and surface finish is unique to Stratasys equipment and materials.”
“We decided to 3D print the TransRoPorter prototype, which offered us the least expensive, fastest and most elegant solution. Everyone involved in the project is delighted with the outcome.”
“The 3D Printer offers us the enhanced geometric freedom to create previously unthought-of 3D printed tools, which then enable us to manufacture extremely complex parts that would be uneconomical or just physically impossible to create by any other means.”
"This technology enhances and aids our decision making process, both during pre-surgical planning and in the operating room, and, therefore, can help in minimizing risks in a very complex operation.”
“3D printing is transforming our product development cycle. 3D printed parts are produced in just a few hours, and enables us to modify the design by creating concept models at minimal cost. The benefits were beyond our initial expectations.”
“The Stratasys 3D Printer not only offers quality prototypes with fine details, it also enables our company to enhance customer satisfaction by synchronizing the development cycle of both the vehicle and the OEM accessories we create. Its user-friendliness further allows our designers to be more creative.”
“We’re interested in a share of that market and hopefully we can help people get their parts quicker for testing fit, form and function.”
“We can run all nine print engines on one part to speed throughput or we can run them individually. It gives us greater flexibility to meet the customer’s needs."
“The Stratasys J750 truly amazes everyone on the team, and boosts energy for designers to keep thinking out of the box for more and better ideas. We look forward to opening up a whole new world full of colorful and new designs together with Stratasys.”
“Using the Dimension and the Objet 3D Printers for distinct purposes, we can respond to any design requirements with accuracy and speed.”
“Soluble support SUP706 has greatly reduced time and labor in our workflow process. We can build more prototypes faster, which helps us reduce the time required to bring innovative products to market.”
“Our strategy is to fail fast, learn and then quickly succeed. Marketers, designers and engineers continually propose product improvements. The mechanical engineering team builds and tests prototypes to evaluate the ideas. While many prototypes don’t succeed, the lessons learned lead to new ideas and new prototypes, and eventually new products.”
“The models that we were outsourcing were not as accurate as what we are getting from our Stratasys printers.”
