Stratasys is showcasing a unique 3D printed chair designed by the late Zaha Hadid, with Patrick Schumacher, at a retrospective of Hadid’s work in Venice. The 10-room exhibition, set to run until November 27 as part of the Venice Architecture Biennale, celebrates the life and works of the world-renowned architect, who passed away earlier this year. Since the development of the original 3D printed prototype in 2014, the chair has been featured in various exhibitions [...]

You can make functional prototypes much more economically by using 3D printed injection molds. One of the most dramatic impacts of 3D printing on design and manufacturing is with injection molding. Companies such as Seuffer, Unilever, Arad Group and Whale report significant savings in molding costs and production time by 3D printing injection molds to test designs before mass production and produce small quantities of custom parts. Learn more by viewing this 60-minute webinar as [...]

Art and design have certainly benefited from the 3D printing world and its liberating capabilities. Artists with 3D printers have been producing some unique geometries, seemingly “impossible” shapes, and unprecedented combinations of color and materials for many years. The release of the new Stratasys J750 multicolor3D printer has opened up even more new doors in the artistic worlds.  In this blog article we will showcase the work of one ground-breaking 3D artist named Jose Sanchez. “Polyomino” is [...]

The 32nd annual Space Symposium was recently held at the historic Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. New capabilities and markets are opening in the commercial space and there is renewed focus in the civil market – driving science and exploration to new heights. To achieve these lofty aims, there are new technologies being brought to bear – decreasing cost and increasing utility in the industry. 3D printing is one of the technologies supporting this period of [...]

The Objet Connex 3 by Stratasys is a renowned series of machines in the 3D printing industry. The Connex 3 first entered the market in 2014, functioning through PolyJet technology. Its release was monumental as it was the first 3D platform to offer multi-material, multi-color 3D printing. Since then, it has evolved into an industry standard, operating at an elite level of performance that designers and engineers around the world depend on. The Connex 3 [...]
