3D Systems Announces Accura Xtreme Plastic
 ROCK
HILL,
South Carolina, July 24, 2007 - 3D Systems Corporation (NASDAQ: TDSC), a
leading provider of 3-D Modeling, Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing
solutions, announced today Accura Xtreme Plastic, a revolutionary new
material for stereolithography systems.
This addition to the company’s family of proven and dependable Accura
Materials facilitates the efficient design, development and manufacturing of
products by enabling production of early prototypes having improved
durability and functionality. Accura Xtreme Plastic is now available for
beta testing by qualified customers.
An extremely tough and versatile material, Accura Xtreme Plastic is
designed for functional assemblies that demand durability. Due to its high
elongation and moderate modulus, Accura Xtreme Plastic is ideally suited for
many Rapid Prototyping and Rapid Manufacturing applications. Accura Xtreme
Plastic’s properties closely mimic those found in molded ABS and
polypropylene, which are major production plastics.
In addition to its outstanding mechanical properties, Accura Xtreme
Plastic features lower viscosity and higher processing speeds than other
materials in the marketplace, resulting in easy operation, fast part
creation, and quick cleaning and finishing with less waste, making it a more
cost effective solution.
“With Accura Xtreme Plastic, we have created a strong, yet flexible
material that resists breakage and produces a high quality part,” said Abe
Reichental, 3D Systems’ president and chief executive officer. “Consistent
with our commitment to lead through technology, 3D Systems is defining the
future of the Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing industry with solutions
like Accura Xtreme Plastic that enable durable prototyping and quick
turnaround times for efficient designing, developing and manufacturing. We
believe that the availability of materials like our new Accura Xtreme
Plastic will open the door to new applications and enhance our customers’
bottom lines.”
