From CAD files Fortus 3D Production Systems produce thermoplastic parts that are used for conceptual prototyping, design verification and functional testing. The benefits of using an additive fabrication system for prototyping include streamlining the development process, reducing costs, and getting to market faster. Why manufacture prototypes with Fortus 3D Production Systems? Reduce Time  Accelerates product development by bringing ideas to life faster and less expensively Enables you to correct errors early in the design process and before the tooling stage  Reduces time-to-market  Reduce Cost

• Better-predict end product performance and gain certification confidence with high-tolerance parts
• Find problems early in design cycle, before the cost to correct them rises
• Eliminate one or more rounds of tooling by proving out the product's design before it reaches tooling

Other Benefits 

• Multiple iterations of design produce better end product
• Gain early approvals for required testing such as UL and CE certification 
• Easy to use system with no messy liquid vats or powder containers to maintain 
• The Fortus technology process is simple, safe and produces thermoplastic parts in hours, not weeks
