Summary
We manufacture all of our printers and filaments in our 68,000 ft² manufacturing facility (located in Grand Rapids, Michigan) using state-of-the-art equipment and processes. Our goal continues to be to make the most innovative filaments on the market – targeting difficult end-use applications where functionality is king.
Fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used for defense, aerospace, and commercial applications that require long-range, efficient flight. As mission requirements evolve and production timelines shrink, manufacturers need faster ways to design,...
3D printing in aerospace is not only used to make rapid prototypes, but also production tooling, inspection fixtures, replacement parts, cabin components, and critical flight-ready parts. It is particularly valuable when manufacturers need low-volume components,...
In high-performance automotive engineering, speed and precision are everything. Whether you are dialing in a race car’s aerodynamics for the weekend, fabricating a custom titanium exhaust for a 1,000-horsepower supercar, or building heavy-duty off-road armor, your...
Stratasys explores how industrial 3D printing is transforming fixed-wing drone manufacturing by enabling lighter, customizable airframes, faster design iterations, reduced tooling costs, and more flexible production for aerospace, defense, and commercial applications.
Aerospace 3D printing is moving from prototyping toward mission-critical production, enabling lighter, more complex aircraft and spacecraft components while reducing material waste, lead times, part counts, and supply-chain dependencies, though cost and certification remain key barriers.
High-performance automotive shops are using Markforged continuous fiber and metal 3D printing to produce custom fixtures in under 24 hours, replacing labor-intensive fabrication and weeks-long machine-shop lead times.
