3D Systems to Introduce sPro 140, 230 SLS Sintering Systems
 ROCK
HILL, SC, Oct 20, 2008 - 3D Systems Corporation (NASDAQ: TDSC), a
leading provider of 3D Printing, Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing
solutions, unveiled today its plans to introduce a next-generation
family of high-speed sintering systems – the sPro 140 and 230 SLS
Centers that are designed to provide best-in-class part quality and
accuracy for the most demanding functional prototyping and end-use
applications. The company expects to begin taking orders for its new
family of sPro Centers starting in the fourth quarter of this year for
delivery to commence during the first quarter of 2009.
 The sPro 140 and 230 SLS Centers are designed to deliver tough, durable
parts up to 30 inches long with excellent feature detail and smooth
surfaces, built from a comprehensive portfolio of integrated DuraForm
Materials. This new generation of SLS Centers is designed to provide
large-part manufacturing capability ideal for aerospace, automotive,
consumer goods, motorsports and other applications for which rugged plastic
parts are required.
This new family of sPro SLS Centers is designed to be configured and
delivered with a variety of performance and speed enhancement packages,
including the new ProScan GX digital imaging system, TruTemp thermal system
and CleanSweep control technology. When equipped with these performance
packages, sPro Centers should build parts at as much as twice the speed of
current sintering systems, while dramatically reducing part-to-part and
build-to-build variability.
"We are excited to announce the development of our next-generation
professional sintering systems and our planned introduction of the sPro 140
and 230 SLS Centers," said Kevin McAlea, Vice-President and General Manager
of 3D Systems' Sintering Products. "By offering significantly improved
system throughput as well as the consistency and reliability demanded by
manufacturers, we expect to take sintering part production to a new, higher
performance level."
McAlea plans to unveil the sPro 140 and 230 Systems at 2 p.m. tomorrow in
a presentation titled "Go Big, Go Strong, Go Pro! Direct Manufacturing with
the Latest Sintering Solutions" at the
3D Systems World Conference in
Charlotte, NC.
