Stratasys Releases New GrabCAD Packages

Stratasys Ltd. is launching two new software packages, GrabCAD Streamline Pro and a new version of GrabCAD Print Pro for PolyJet. 

The first version of GrabCAD Print Pro for FDM (fused deposition modeling) and SAF has increased hardware usage among some customers by 30% to 50%. Customers can better organize the front and backend of moving and processing parts, enabling the scale-up of additive manufacturing capabilities.

Users can also accelerate time to market by facilitating rapid design iterations and reducing dependency on physical prototyping; reduce costs by eliminating expensive tooling and molds needed for traditional manufacturing; and remove geometric complexities that are not feasible with conventional methods.

“Our software provides essential capabilities for scaling up additive manufacturing workflows,” says Victor Gerdes, vice president, Software, Stratasys. “We are connecting users with a centralized platform, giving them more information to make data-driven decisions and providing them with the precision and detailing that can only come from additive manufacturing. Throughput, efficiency and applications are key to manufacturing, and these GrabCAD software packages will further advance adoption of additive manufacturing by delivering measurable results that display real business value.”

GrabCAD Streamline Pro

The new GrabCAD Streamline Pro is a comprehensive workgroup software suite, powered by GrabCAD Print. Designed to connect people, parts and printers, GrabCAD Streamline Pro reduces the effort in managing a company’s entire fleet of Stratasys 3D printers from one platform. It creates the opportunity for secure, centralized software workflows for part production at any scale, regardless of the number of printers or types of parts printed.

In addition, GrabCAD Streamline Pro enables integration of Stratasys printers and GrabCAD Print with GrabCAD software partners, and a company’s business systems. This leads to higher efficiency, reduced cost and business process automation.

Some of the key features of GrabCAD Streamline Pro include:

• Advanced dashboards and analytics for AM Managers to have insights into printer and material use
• Real-time monitoring and customizable alerts for shop operators to stay informed about printer events
• Simplified tools for submitting, tracking and consolidating 3D printing requests
• Automatic estimation and build preparation to minimize operator effort and help engineers and designers get their parts faster
• Cyber protection capabilities to shield Stratasys printers against network vulnerabilities, cyberattacks and potential business disruptions
• Open APIs and a flexible platform to integrate with other business systems, enhancing interoperability and scalability

GrabCAD Streamline Pro maximizes productivity, increases cybersecurity and optimizes software workflows, making it essential for scaling 3D printing. Learn more about GrabCAD Streamline Pro here.
