Stratasys Introduces Latest Advancements to Accelerate Additive Manufacturing Productivity
The world of additive manufacturing (AM) continues to evolve rapidly, and Stratasys, a global leader in polymer 3D printing solutions, once again sets the benchmark for innovation. In its latest announcement, Stratasys unveiled new advanced materials, cutting-edge features, and enhanced software - empowering manufacturers, designers, and engineers to achieve higher performance and efficiency in 3D printing applications.
These new advancements are tailored for a wide range of industries from aerospace and healthcare to consumer goods and automotive manufacturing. For Singapore-based companies embracing smart factory solutions and Industry 4.0, these innovations provide a competitive advantage that offers greater efficiency, repeatability, and reliability in print performance.
How Can 3D Printing Help Your Business Objective?
In recent years, global disruptions have highlighted the importance of supply chain resilience. 3D printing offers businesses a powerful safety net, turning digital designs into physical parts at the moment they’re needed. Instead of relying on overseas suppliers or large inventories, companies can maintain digital inventories and produce parts on demand - ensuring business continuity even when global logistics are disrupted.
In Singapore, where industries thrive on precision, innovation, and reliability, this capability creates a distinct competitive edge. For sectors like aerospace MRO, precision engineering, and medical technology, local additive manufacturing means faster turnaround, reduced downtime, and greater operational independence.
But 3D printing isn’t just another manufacturing tool - it’s a strategic enabler. It empowers both SMEs and MNCs to innovate freely, customize products efficiently, and adapt swiftly to market needs. As demand for agility, personalization, and sustainable production continues to grow, 3D printing positions Singapore businesses to not only respond to change but to lead it.
1. Latest FDM Highlights
- New CoatReady™ print mode for ULTEM™ 9085 resin on the F900
The F900 now includes a software-enabled print mode called CoatReady™, designed to improve surface quality when printing with ULTEM™ 9085 resin. It delivers smoother surfaces that require less sanding and priming before painting – reducing manual finishing time, accelerating production, and increasing overall throughput. - ULTEM™ 9085 Filament CG for F3300: Aerospace-grade performance with full traceability and tighter diameter tolerance for strong, repeatable parts.
- Nylon 12CF T40 Tip for Fortus 450mc: Nearly doubles build speed for large, high-strength parts with a 0.020-inch slice thickness, ideal for bulky solid components. This capability will be available with the software update of November 18.
- XTEND 250 Spools for Fortus FDC™: New ULTEM™ 9085 resin in Aircraft Gray and ASA Black are now available for the Fortus FDC. These additional material options allow manufacturers to produce larger, stronger parts - benefiting from the FDC’s uninterrupted print times and reduced moisture-related defects.
- ABS Fortus® PLUS TrueRefill™: Sustainable, cost-effective filament refill solution for ABS Black, ABS Ivory, and SR-35, cutting material costs by over 35% and packaging consumption by more than 30%
2. Latest P3 / DLP Innovations
- Ultracur3D® RG 3280 by Forward AM: Ceramic-filled material validated for Origin printers can produce 3D printing mold tools, extrusion dies, and vacuum forming tools for spare part production, small batches or prototyping. With its high stiffness (~10 GPa) and heat deflection above 280°C it withstands the high temperature and pressures of the molding process.
- Origin Accessories: New tools simplify part handling, controlled curing, and improved part transparency, enhancing safety and efficiency in production workflows.
