With one of our 3D printers or modelers, you have a real tool for the development of concept models early in the design process. You and your team can explore multiple concepts quickly and affordably to review with members of your design team – allowing for quality feedback, quickly and efficiently. 

The ability to eliminate days and weeks from the product design process means significant savings of resources and the ability to get your product to market faster. In fact, you can design and ‘print’ a new product concept in hours and have it in the hands of a ‘focus group’ the same day, allowing for rapid design improvements and immediate customer input. We call this creating with confidence!

With a wide variety of robust, thermally stable material options, 3D Systems Printing solutions generate models that are tough enough to be used as working parts. This enables you to perform testing for form, fit and function right from your office.

In fact, our 3D Printers offer the highest level of accuracy and precision than any other 3D printers on the market today. With an extremely smooth surface finish our models rarely need to be sanded but they can stand up to a variety of other secondary processes; they can be painted, drilled, tapped and machined. Go ahead – put them to the test! 

Our 3D Printers allow you to create and print real parts direct from your desktop or office. Don't let the fine feature detail and super smooth surface finish fool you - these parts are ready to go to work.

Your parts are custom made for end-use applications. Get out in front of your new product design, packaging or tooling requirements, and deliver real parts – real time - with a personal, professional or production 3D printer from 3D Systems!

Master patterns and molds are used as short term or disposable tools in low-volume production. Make 100% RealWax™ patterns that are designed to perform like injected wax patterns in lost-wax casting processes.

Or leverage our 3D printers to produce foundry casting patterns or molds. When your application calls for casting patterns or molds for anything from jewelry, medical instruments and devices to mechanical parts or forming operations, we have you covered with our Professional and Production 3D Printing Systems

The pace of new consumer product introductions is accelerating. Companies of all sizes recognize being first to market is critical in the battle for revenue. But a compelling form factor is also essential to creating a consumer experience that inspires rapid adoption.

3D printing has dramatically altered the product development landscape forever. Design and ‘print’ your product concept today – place it in the hands of a customer focus group tomorrow. Communicate, collaborate and deliver superior products – each created with confidence. 

In your class or lab, it’s not some ivory tower or esoteric theory. It’s practical and hands-on. It’s real world. And technical schools, colleges and educational institutes of all kinds are increasingly turning their students on to leading edge 3D printing technologies through 3D Systems.

Educators depend on our 3D Printers for an affordable way to ignite the imaginations of their students. Our easy-to-learn, maintain and use high definition printers take students far beyond the theory to designing and creating three dimensional models right before their eyes. 3D Printers are indispensible tools for learning.

Surgeons using plaster casts as models before operating are out of date. So are the dental practitioners still  pouring material into patients’ mouths to take impressions for the construction of crowns, bridges and implants.

Based on our track record of success in healthcare we are accelerating the pace of change in medicine and dentistry while improving the patient experience. At the forefront with practical and affordable solutions in digital fabrication, we’re proud to offer quality and precision unheard of less than five years ago. 

Architects have long understood that nothing beats an actual physical model when selling a project or making a presentation. So, when a well known architectural firm needed to meet an impossible deadline for an international client they turned to 3D Printing for an affordable, high quality solution.

The accuracy, speed, “fit and finish” of the physical parts our printers produce are only limited by the imagination of the designers. Perhaps that’s why demanding architectural firms large and small are producing models today using 3D Systems technologies and solutions.

Creativity and imagination are central to the jewelry craft. Which is why the industry has embraced our pioneering 3D printing technologies to reduce the time and labor required in the manufacturing process.

They’ve turned to our high-definition printers for an affordable, dependable and easy-to-use way to produce finely detailed jewelry patterns and models. Now, it’s easy to go from jewelry design CAD software directly to high-quality, production casting patterns or presentation models. And, with all that manual labor a thing of the past, there is more time to create new designs …. and grow your business!

The familiar creased brown hat. The unmistakable likeness of Indiana Jones so realistic the major toy maker approved the design on the spot. In fact, the models our 3D Printer created were so detailed they became the master mold for production of the action figures.

Across the nation and around the world -  from Philadelphia to Amsterdam, new works emerge from designers, professors and artists using 3D printing as the medium. Virtually every day we see new applications for the 3D Printing technologies we pioneered. And we continue to refine, improve and make our systems and solutions even more affordable and accessible.
