Stratasys Just Unlocked a Massive Material Upgrade for FDM, PolyJet & SLA
From aerospace-grade ULTEM to high-heat resins, five new material additions and AI-driven software aim to eliminate warping and scale industrial production.
Stratasys Ltd. has expanded its additive manufacturing platform through the introduction of new materials and a software update designed to scale production workflows. The release includes the addition of ULTEM 1010 filament for the F3300 printer, new materials for PolyJet, P3, and SLA platforms, and a measurement-based warping correction tool for GrabCAD Print Pro.
The company introduced several materials targeting aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications.
- FDM Technology: ULTEM 1010 resin is now available as a filament for the F3300 printer. Stratasys stated this material enables the production of high-temperature, aerospace-grade parts and has the lowest coefficient of thermal expansion in its FDM technology portfolio.
- PolyJet Systems: J3 and J5 printers now support PolyJet ToughOne White and ToughOne Black. According to the company, these materials enable durable prototypes that can withstand flexing, snapping, and repeated testing.
- SLA and P3 Platforms: Somos WaterShed White has been added to the SLA material family for Neo printers, including the Neo800+. For the Origin P3 platform, Stratasys introduced P3 Deflect 110 resin for parts exposed to elevated temperatures and mechanical loads, such as connectors, brackets, jigs, and fixtures. The company also introduced Loctite 3D IND3785 Low Migration material for Origin printers, intended for regulated environments such as food and pharmaceutical production.
Software Update
Stratasys integrated Measurement-Based WAM (Warped Adaptive Modeling) into GrabCAD Print Pro. The company stated the feature uses measured dimensional data to automatically correct warping, enabling the production of complex parts, including electrical connectors, precision jigs, and industrial fixtures, on the Origin P3 platform with improved accuracy and reduced iteration.
Workflow and Production Capabilities
Stratasys stated that ULTEM 1010 filament will be available in larger spool sizes for extended production runs through the Fortus FDC filament dryer. The company said the dryer supports longer, uninterrupted builds with integrated material drying and is compatible with the F900 and Fortus 450mc Gen III printers.
According to Rich Garrity, chief business unit officer at Stratasys, the updates are intended to address challenges manufacturers face when adopting or scaling additive manufacturing. The company stated the developments aim to reduce barriers to adoption and improve accuracy across production workflows.
Stratasys said it will demonstrate the materials and software at the Rapid + TCT Conference, scheduled for April 14–16, at booth #1601.
