MINNEAPOLIS and REHOVOT,
Israel, May
29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Stratasys Booth Hall 3, Stand E30,
June 15-21, 2015
This year's Paris Air Show (15th to 21st
June, Le Bourget Exhibition Centre, France) will see leading additive
manufacturing and 3D printing provider, Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq:
SSYS), demonstrate how its technology helps aerospace companies
increase supply chain efficiency, produce lighter weight flight
parts and improve buy-to-fly ratios.
Recent Stratasys customer announcements highlight the growing
impact of the company's market-leading solutions for aerospace
design, testing, tooling and part production: United Launch
Alliance (ULA) saves $1m a year by 3D printing durable flight-ready
rocket components from ULTEM 9085, a high performance thermoplastic
(International Business Times, April 17,
2015), while Airbus' use of over 1000 FDM 3D printed flight
parts for its A350 XWB program (Stratasys blog, May 6, 2015) enabled the company to increase
supply chain flexibility and meet delivery commitments on-time.
Stratasys (Hall 3, Stand E30) will use the Paris Air Show to
demonstrate how its 3D printing and additive manufacturing
technologies respond directly to the specific requirements
of these and other aerospace manufacturers and suppliers. This
includes the ability to produce lighter parts with enhanced
functionality using high-performance FST-certified and FAA-approved
thermoplastic materials, as well as the fast, economic creation of
full design prototypes, ergonomic jigs & fixtures and injection
molds.
Visitors are invited to explore the latest 3D printing
advancements and solutions for aerospace in a two-day series of
informative Stratasys speaking sessions:
- Frederick Claus, Business
Development Manager, Aerospace and Defense, Stratasys Direct
Manufacturing, will discuss Qualification of Additive
Manufactured Flight Rated Components for Military and Commercial
Aerospace Applications on Monday
15th at 3:30pm in the Conference Room, Hall 2C. This
session will explain how Stratasys' additive manufacturing
technologies support customers and partners by providing traceable,
certified material and part qualifications to unique specifications
- thereby upholding the high confidence required of flight
hardware.
- Alissa Wild, Senior
Additive Manufacturing Research Engineer for the Vertical Solutions
Business Unit at Stratasys, will be speaking live about the
latest advancements in FDM 3D printing materials on Monday
15th at 4:45pm in the Conference Room, Hall 2C. This
presentation will explain how use of FDM 3D printing materials can
shorten lead times, cut production costs and minimize waste.
Attendees will learn how such benefits can be achieved by 3D
printing manufacturing tools that support product assemblies, such
as jigs and fixtures, as well as the production of mold cavities
for low-volume production of final end-use parts.
- Scott Sevcik, Aerospace
and Defense Business Development Manager, Vertical Solutions at
Stratasys, will present Additive
Manufacturing Impact in Aerospace on
Tuesday 16th at
3:30pm in the Conference Room, Hall
2C. Attendees will hear how use of additive manufacturing by
Stratasys aerospace customers can lead to significant cost savings,
improved supply chain efficiencies, better fly-to-buy ratios and
less waste.
- Concluding the speaker line-up is Tim Schniepp, Senior Additive Manufacturing
Research Engineer for the Vertical Solutions Business Unit at
Stratasys, who will discuss Additive Manufacturing of Composite
Tooling using FDM 3D printing technology on
Tuesday
16th at 4:45pm in the Conference Room, Hall
2C. Visitors will learn about the time efficiencies and cost
savings involved when integrating Stratasys FDM 3D printing
technology within the composite tooling process.
"Aerospace companies are leveraging additive manufacturing
solutions to enhance buy-to-fly ratios and simplify the manufacture
and assembly of complex part geometries. This simplifies
customers' structured bills of material on aircraft and leads to
increased supply chain efficiencies and reduced overhead costs
associated with maintaining and executing contracts for each part.
Our additive manufacturing solutions produce complex parts
on-demand, ensuring on-time delivery at the point of use. We
encourage interested aerospace customers to visit the Stratasys
booth during the show to speak with a Vertical Solutions technical
expert," said Andy Storm, General
Manager of Aerospace, Automotive, & Defense Vertical Solutions.
