Production-Class Versatility
Only Stratasys 3D Printers and 3D Production Systems have the versatility to produce thermoplastic parts with the strength, durability, accuracy and functionality of traditionally manufactured parts—without machining or tooling. Our Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) systems transform 3D CAD files into functional prototypes, manufacturing tools, and end-use parts. Parts built with production-grade thermoplastics last for years, performing like traditional machined parts under real-world conditions.
More Possibilities with 3D Prototyping
Stratasys frees you from traditional design and manufacturing limitations. You can pursue dozens of design iterations, using 3D prototyping and functionally testing each one. Our printers produce durable end-use parts with geometries too complex to affordably produce using traditional means. We'll open new worlds of innovation while reducing costs, streamlining operations and accelerating time to market.
At the core: Advanced FDM Technology
Our systems are based on Stratasys' patented FDM Technology. As the industry's leading additive manufacturing technology, FDM is the only technology that uses production-grade thermoplastics. With a wide range of advanced materials and mechanical properties, FDM parts endure high heat, caustic chemicals, sterilization and intense mechanical stresses.
