This case study explores how Stratasys Direct used the Stratasys Neo800+ industrial SLA printer to increase production capacity, improve turnaround times, and pursue new quick-turn manufacturing opportunities. The Neo800+ combines a large 31.5 × 31.5-inch build area with print speeds up to 50% faster than the Neo800, allowing the service bureau to produce large components without joining sections and complete high-volume builds more efficiently.
The case study also examines the company’s broader SLA workflow, including its use of automated resin-removal equipment from a third-party supplier. Together, faster printing and automated post-processing helped Stratasys Direct increase SLA throughput and revenue by 54% without adding personnel.
