3D Systems Plans to Resume V-Flash Rollout Activities
ROCK
HILL, SC, Oct 20, 2008 - 3D Systems Corporation (NASDAQ: TDSC), a
leading provider of 3D Printing, Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing
solutions, announced today that it plans to resume its managed phased
rollout of its V-Flash FTI 230 Desktop Modeler following its
World
Conference this week. The company previously halted shipments of this
modeler earlier this year pending resolution of several technical
difficulties that affected the modeler's performance. The company plans
to continue with its carefully managed phased rollout plans through the
first quarter of 2009 and, pending the successful outcome of this phase,
commence full commercial activities for the V-Flash FTI 230 Desktop
Modeler.
The company also plans to unveil during its World Conference its plans to
commercialize a high-definition V-Flash HD 230 Desktop 3D Printer that will
use the company's patented Film Transfer Imaging (FTI) technology. 3D
Systems expects to introduce this compact, office-friendly, high-definition
3D Printer in 2009.
The V-Flash HD 230 Desktop Modeler is being designed to enable the quick,
accurate build of models from 3D CAD in any office environment. Intended for
producing extremely detailed parts at low-cost, this easy-to-use 3D Printer
should be ideal for design, engineering and medical applications requiring
accuracy, smooth surface finish, and form and fit capability. The V-Flash HD
230 Desktop Modeler is expected to be mid-range in price, with the
capability of building exceptionally thin walls.
"We are pleased to be able to resume the phased rollout of our V-Flash
FTI 230 Desktop Modeler as well as to share our plans to expand the range of
our FTI technology and announce the development of our new, high-definition
V-Flash HD 230 Desktop Modeler," said Brian Fraser, Vice-President and
General Manager of 3D Systems' 3D Printing products.
