As additive manufacturing continues to emerge in the medical sector, companies like Stratasys have developed advanced 3D printers and digital anatomy materials that replicate human bone and tissue characteristics. Surgeons use this technology for patient-specific pre-surgical practice—raising concerns about validating the accuracy of 3D printed anatomical models.
With the release of Formlabs PreForm 3.43, GoEngineer’s suite of tools for advanced design and manufacturing has upgraded massively. The Form series of SLA printers are best-in-class additive manufacturing solutions serving industries from tailored dental solutions, to prototyping, and end-use production parts. PreForm is the free job preparation (or slicing) software for Formlabs 3D printers, and works on Windows and macOS. With just a few button clicks, default settings and first-party resins produce reliable results.
On December 2, 2024, GoEngineer announced its partnership with Formlabs, a leader in 3D printing, to deliver the latest commercial and dental solutions in desktop SLA and SLS 3D printing across the U.S. and Canada.
Stratasys has announced an expanded, long-term partnership with NASCAR, becoming the exclusive provider of 3D printing solutions for the racing organization. NASCAR will now exclusively use Stratasys technology for creating parts and tools, replacing previously used systems.
The GoEngineer Customer Portal is a great tool for managing your users, training, assets, and other resources that GoEngineer has to offer. Two of the strongest assets available are the ability to manage users and then assign/access training from either your success plan or the classes you have purchased. This article is a guide for users with Professional admin-level access (typically CAD admin or IT) to utilize these assets fully. Let's start with how to add users to the customer portal.
GoEngineer's 3D printing division has been helping companies solve problems for longer than many people realize 3D printing has even existed. As a result, it's not uncommon to find people with 10, 15, or even 20+ years of 3D printing experience. This experience includes working with elementary schools and universities, hobbyists, and startups to the world's largest corporations.
This guide will show you step by step how to properly load a material canister into your Stratasys Fortus 3D printer. It will help reduce the risk of losing the filament inside a canister and also make it easier to roll the wheel down when getting the material ready to load.
3D printing technologies have come a long way, with a proven ability to provide small features with high-quality detail. This has led gaming communities like Dungeons & Dragons and War Hammer 40K players, to start adopting 3D printing to create personalized pieces.
Stratasys FDM 3D printers provide exceptional design freedom and flexibility regarding materials, build volumes, slice heights, and even soluble support materials when dealing with complex internal channels. However, it's important to consider the relationship between slice height and fine features. Depending on the nozzle diameter and available slice heights, certain wall thicknesses can be difficult (or impossible) to print reliably. To combat this, we need to understand the limitations of our machines and use that information when designing parts to print.
