“China Eastern Airlines plans to introduce the new Airbus 350 which is equipped with over 1,000 3D-printed flying parts. As a complementary method to the traditional manufacturing, 3D printing will become more widely adopted in the future. It’s critical to gain the expertise and be well-prepared for future challenges.”

"Additive manufacturing offers significant opportunities to decrease spare-part inventory, reduce the supply chain and slash costs. The ability to print a spare parts ondemand offers manufacturers a rapid solution that ensures production continuity and, most importantly, help safeguard revenues.”

"This is an excellent example of the capabilities we can achieve by combining supercomputing and 3D printing at KAUST."

"With 3D printing, we can deliver exactly what our customers want on time.”

“To be a part of that little special moment for someone else, can’t help but tug at your heartstrings.”

“You always want it to be as light as possible, but you also want it to be strong enough that it’s got your safety factors, that nobody’s going to get hurt.”

“The ability to try a design idea, test it and redesign it accordingly in a matter of hours, rather than weeks, has seen us improve work holding and reduce the occurrence of manual handling damage throughout the production processes.”

“Creating a new motorcycle from scratch is a massive, multifaceted undertaking. 3D printing played a crucial role by giving us the ability to formulate new ideas and test them the next day.”

“My team could visualize the operation before we started. We knew the safest approach, and confidently made a smaller incision.”

“The ability to quickly 3D print high quality parts that require no post-processing has proven instrumental in cutting our iterations and directly reducing our product development cycle. In fact, since introducing Stratasys 3D printing, we have slashed our prototyping costs by 75% and accelerated our development time by 50%.”

“3D printing is the solution to many challenges in this market.”

“The introduction of 3D printing to our operations has revolutionized the way we work. We have a better workflow, higher productivity and can produce products that look more professional. In fact, the benefits of 3D printing go far beyond the models themselves.”

“Other teams have to look around to all these different suppliers for off-the-shelf-parts that do sort of what they want. Not us. We can custom build things for our exact need.”

“I am continually amazed by the ability of additive manufacturing to transform my most complex designs into real life.”

“With some traditional fixture projects costing over $100,000, the savings can be substantial.”
