Stratasys Brings Enterprise Software Connectivity to 3D Printing to Scale up Manufacturing
Summary
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. & REHOVOT, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Stratasys Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSYS) announced today a new program to integrate its 3D printers in production environments with the factory floor via the GrabCAD® Software Development Kit (SDK). However, while good for collecting execution data, this standard does not support additional capabilities for sending and receiving printer commands and for remote monitoring. For 3D printing to achieve its full potential on the shop floor, companies need an easy, secure, scalable way for additive manufacturing systems to integrate into Industry 4.0 initiatives in production environments.” Improved API connectivity could open the door to new business models, such as enabling airlines to 3D print their own spare parts with license keys from aerospace company OEMs. The Stratasys 3D printing ecosystem of solutions and expertise includes 3D printers, materials, software, expert services, and on-demand parts production. Stratasys reserves the right to utilize any of the foregoing social media platforms, including the companys websites, to share material, non-public information pursuant to the SECs Regulation FD.
