About Company
OVERVIEW
Stratasys Ltd. was formed in 2012 by the merger of Stratasys Inc. and Objet Ltd. We manufacture 3D printers and materials that create prototypes and manufactured goods directly from 3D CAD files or other 3D content. The 3D printers are based on patented FDM® and PolyJet® inkjet-based technologies.
Stratasys systems are used by manufacturers to create models and prototypes to aid in the new product design process. And they are becoming widely used for production of finished goods in low-volume manufacturing. Systems range from affordable desktop 3D printers to large production systems for direct digital manufacturing.
The FDM process creates parts by extruding molten thermoplastic in fine layers to build the part layer by layer. The PolyJet process also creates parts by building in layers but employs an ink jet style jetting process to apply photopolymers in fine layers and simultaneously cures them with ultraviolet light.
Stratasys also manufacturers Solidscape 3D Printers and operates the RedEye On Demand digital manufacturing service. We have over 1000 employees and hold over 500 granted or pending additive manufacturing patents globally. Our range of 120 3D printing materials is the widest in the industry and includes over 100 proprietary inkjet-based photopolymer materials and 10 proprietary FDM-based thermoplastic materials.
Through our network of certified, value added resellers and distributors, Stratasys delivers responsive, regional support around the globe. Stratasys maintains dual headquarters in Minneapolis, Minnesota and Rehovot, Israel. Stratasys is a public company that trades on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the symbol SSYS.
OUR TECHNOLGIES
Our 3D printing technologies are additive manufacturing at its best.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM®)
Prototypes, tools and production parts made with FDM Technology are tough enough to not only test functionality, but hold up under everyday use. Uniquely, FDM uses real thermoplastics like ABS, polycarbonate and ULTEM 9085. The ability to print in these end-use manufacturing materials is the main reason FDM is a highly sought-after 3D printing technology.
PolyJet®
3D printing technology builds precise prototypes and concept models that best mimic how a product will look and feel. Only our PolyJet 3D printers can print multiple digital materials in a single build. That means closer simulation of products and a boost in creativity.
Drop-On-Demand & Smooth Curvature Printing
Most consumer inkjet printers use drop-on-demand technology. Our drop-on-demand 3D printing technology works by depositing up to 12000 droplets per second of a wax-like material onto a build plate in a layer-by-layer fashion to produce wax-like patterns ready for direct casting and other mold making methods of small precision part manufacturing. At 5000 drops-per-inch our proprietary Smooth Curvature Printing (SCP) technology is a jewelry industry favorite. These high precision printers give jewelry designers the freedom to produce creations of the finest feature detail with perfect symmetry and a precise surface finish.
MISSION & VISION
3D printing is bringing about the next industrial revolution. And we’re here to lead it. We’re here to help designers perfect their ideas. We’re here to help manufacturers remake the way they make things. We’re here to give individuals, teams and entire organizations 3D printing systems, services and solutions that transform the way they work.
We see the design process liberated, becoming more iterative and more creative. We see the manufacturing process transformed, becoming more agile and more efficient. We see more communication and collaboration bringing better products to market faster. We see Stratasys 3D Printers in every office, plant, lab and school on earth.
