Stratasys speeds up FDM rapid prototyping and manufacturing: increasing throughput up to 50 percent
‘13 Slice’ layer thickness adds flexibility to FDM T-class systems
(NASDAQ: SSYS) Stratasys today announced a new build option that increases throughput up to 50 percent compared with previously available options.
The enhancement affects the FDM Titan and FDM Vantage systems using ABS plastic. The exact throughput improvement will depend on part geometry, and average speed improvement is 40 percent.
构建选项使用a new layer thickness, measuring 0.013 inch (0.330 mm), which is best suited to larger geometry, where the highest resolution is not required or when faster speed is needed. FDM layer thickness options now include 0.005, 0.007, 0.010, and 0.013 in. (0.127, 0.178, 0.254, and 0.330 mm).
“Users can select layer-thickness options to tailor their part’s surface finish, feature detail, and build speed to the job at hand,” says product marketing manager Fred Fischer. “The new ‘13 slice’ option gives you more flexibility. With one system, you can build anything from very fine, intricate parts like cell-phone pieces to a large engine block. These options will also give more choice for those doing direct digital manufacturing.”
The new build option covers the following T-Class systems: Titan, Titan Ti, Vantage i-a, Vantage X, Vantage S, and Vantage SE.
This enhancement is available at no charge to users on maintenance/warranty contract via a software update. Users wishing to receive the update should contact their customer service representative.
