The Next Generation in Rapid Prototyping: 3D Printing

It’s finally a reality! Affordable 3D printing on your desk,
at your workbench or in your lab! The SD300 Pro is an affordable 3D model-building desktop printer that creates detailed functional plastic models from your CAD data. Now product prototype models can be designed and built right at your desktop in no time for a fraction of the cost, allowing for hands-on review and revision of CAD data earlier in the design cycle.

Eliminate the Hassle, Waste, and Time Costs

Until now, affordable, simple rapid prototyping has been neither affordable, simple,nor rapid. The SD300 Pro 3D printer changes all that,eliminating the hassle, the cost and the wait, optimizing your workflow with tangible results. Other solutions available on the market result in a time consuming process that produces dissolved waste, hinders your production and creative momentum, and involves a dedicated technical team. Worse still is the amount of time you have to wait for a service bureau or outside vendor to produce and deliver your prototype model.

Function, Form, Fit, and Feel, Early in the Design Cycle

The SD300 Pro’s printed parts are not just for show. They can be assembled and handled so engineers, designers, students, and other end users can get a better sense of function, form, fit and feel much earlier in the design cycle. Design collaboration with parts in hand facilitates discussion, and allows designers to identify ergonomic and technical flaws much earlier, keeping projects on target for deadlines and reducing time to market.

Raise Your Competitive Edge

With its low cost, ease of use, and flexible fast production capability, the SD300 Pro enables designers, engineers and manufacturers to go after new business with an added competitive edge. Small design, engineering and manufacturing companies can finally compete with larger firms equipped with rapid prototyping capability in house. Now you can eliminate shipping costs and the two to three week turn around time machine shops typically operate with. You no longer have to live with the risk of the wrong revision being manufactured and shipped back to you- just in time for your presentation to your client to be derailed.
