As the global manufacturing market shifts with increased demand for personalized products and on-demand production, 3D printing finds an ever-growing range of applications. 3D printing is the process of creating a 3D object from a digital file. Since its inception with Stereolithography and FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) in the 1980s, 3D printing has evolved into a whole portfolio of technologies, becoming ever more accessible and affordable for businesses of all sizes.
GoEngineer's latest Community Design Contest challenged SOLIDWORKS designers to produce their dream desk accessory. Entries ranged from pen cups to headphone stands, but the winning design was a striking and hyper-personalized desk organizer from Mitchell Sherry titled, the "Bring Back the Cool" desk organizer.

There's no doubt that 3D printing has changed the way products are developed, tested, and manufactured but do we fully understand how a part goes from concept to production? In this article, we'll look at how a company can utilize 3D printing, from prototyping to design validation and even tooling. While this is a hypothetical story, it is a scenario we've seen repeatedly in the real world, and if you develop products, it's likely relatable.
Stratasys recently announced that beginning with the Fortus 450, a 3D printer designed for rigorous 24/7 production, users will have the option to bring new materials to the platform, and access to previously untouchable print parameters.
The new Stratasys J35 Pro PolyJet 3D printer was introduced to the world earlier this year, and it is quickly becoming one of the most talked about professional-grade, multi-material 3D printers today. One hot topic of discussion surrounds material options, specifically what materials the system can run and how can they be mixed and matched to provide different results. This article will attempt to bring the J35 Pro material configurations into clearer focus.
