3D Systems Releases LS 3.44, OptiScan for SLS Systems
 ROCK
HILL,
SC, Sep 27, 2007 - 3D Systems Corporation (NASDAQ: TDSC), a leading provider of
3-D Modeling, Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing solutions, announced today
the release of LS 3.44 and OptiScan Software for use with its mid-frame
Sinterstation SLS Systems.
LS Software drives the company’s Sinterstation HiQ, Vanguard, and 2500
plus SLS Systems. These systems use a CO2 laser to selectively melt and fuse
powered plastics or metals into solid cross-sections, layer by layer, to
form a solid object. This latest version of the LS software, which will be
available by the end of October, has a number of enhancements, including the
new OptiScan module.
OptiScan Software, optional software available for use with LS 3.44 for
HiQ and HiQ-HS system users, improves the performance of Sinterstation HiQ
SLS Systems by reducing laser scan times, resulting in build speed increases
of up to 43 percent. The improvements depend on geometry, layout and number
of parts, but the company expects that users can expect a build speed
increase of about 10 percent for typical geometries and layouts.
One other key feature of the LS 3.44 software is the enhancement of the
log file management in the RealMonitor utility. This new LogManager utility
software consolidates various log file handling utilities into one,
easy-to-use software module. The advanced graphical display mode of the
LogManager software, available as an option, enables users to conveniently
analyze each build session or a series of historical build sessions in one
graphical display, further enhancing the value to users.
“We are pleased to continuously enhance the productivity of our systems,”
said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems’ president and chief executive officer. “3D
Systems is continually working to develop solutions that save our customers
time and money. LS 3.44 and OptiScan Software are among the products that
are designed to meet those objectives.”
