3D Systems Corporation provides solid imaging solutions and services that enable product designers and manufacturers to move quickly and cost-effectively from three-dimensional computer designs to finished parts, at a significantly lower cost and higher quality than traditional handcrafting or machining methods. 3D Systems invented the solid imaging technology that is now used worldwide to generate product concept models, functional prototypes, and master patterns for tooling and production--directly from CAD input. The company's systems utilize patented stereolithography (SLA) and 3D printing processes to fabricate solid physical objects from digital input, substantially cutting the time and cost required to bring new products to market. Based in Valencia, Calif., 3D Systems (Nasdaq-NMS: TDSC) was founded in 1986 by Charles Hull, the father of stereolithography. The company is recognized as the world market and technology leader in solid imaging solutions. |
