Join Stratasys Direct at MMTS in Montréal, Canada, to explore how additive manufacturing is helping companies move from prototype parts to reliable production.
Visit us at Booth #2223 to see real production parts, learn about scalable AM workflows, and talk with our experts about your next project.
MMTS brings together some of the most advanced manufacturing companies in North America—and we’re excited to be part of the conversation in Montréal.
Visit our booth to see real-world additive manufacturing applications and explore how companies are moving from prototype to production. Our team will be on hand to show production parts, discuss high-performance materials, and share insights on scalable AM workflows—including post-processing and finishing that enable production-quality results. Stop by to talk with our manufacturing experts about your next project and where additive manufacturing fits in your development or production strategy.
Whether you're exploring additive for aerospace, industrial applications, or complex low-volume production, our team can help you evaluate where AM fits.

Stephane Lobbe, On Demand Parts Manager
Additive manufacturing has become incredibly effective at prototyping—but turning those prototypes into reliable production parts is where many programs stall.
In this session, Stratasys Direct will walk through what companies learn as they transition additive manufacturing from prototypes into real production programs, including how to identify strong production candidates, establish consistent workflows, and scale post-processing while maintaining quality and repeatability.
Stéphane Lobbe is an On-Demand Parts Manager at Stratasys Direct Manufacturing, where he works with companies across multiple industries to adopt additive manufacturing (AM) and accelerate product development from early prototyping through production. With more than 20 years of experience in additive manufacturing and digital design technologies, Stéphane collaborates with engineering and manufacturing teams to identify opportunities where AM can enable complex designs, speed development cycles, and support scalable production workflows. He began working with additive manufacturing technologies in 2004, helping customers adopt Stratasys 3D printing systems and integrate AM into their design and manufacturing processes. Prior to joining Stratasys Direct, he spent more than a decade in the CAD software industry and several years in entertainment software.
