Why Consumer Products Companies Use 3D Printing

With the ability to test and revise designs at will, 3D printing for consumer products has opened new doors to innovation.

An array of technologies and materials for every step of the product development life cycle allows you to bring your product to market faster than ever before.

Open up new possibilities for your business by changing the way you think about developing products. Compared to traditional methods, 3D printing offers significant advantages for better products with optimized designs.

Faster to Market

Consumer product additive manufacturing allows for better results by removing steps and complexity in your workflow, and get real-time, hands-on customer feedback from close-to-production prototypes. Then, get parts on the shelves with low-volume production using our robust technologies.

Custom Consumer Products

Discover what’s possible for your consumer products with our wide variety of technologies and specially formulated materials.

“Working with Stratasys Direct Manufacturing gave me access to multiple technologies to ensure we got the fit and function of the prototypes right.”

Technologies

At Stratasys Direct we offer a range of 3D printing and conventional technologies to serve a variety of application needs.

PolyJet

PolyJet offers unprecedented detail and a cosmetic finish with the finest resolution in 3D printing.

With the ability to combine flexible and hard materials and incorporate full CMYK color and transparencies, PolyJet is ideal for custom models and prototypes.

Stereolithography (SLA)

SLA builds lightweight, detailed parts with the smoothest surface finish. Our proprietary offerings include near-hollow builds for extremely lightweight parts.
