3D Systems To Hold Live Webinar

3D Systems DDD announced today that it will hold its latest live webinar Thursday, June 5, with Wisconsin-based Turbine Technologies.

The purpose of the webinar is to demonstrate how Turbine Technologies was able to significantly reduce the time and cost of its R&D through the use of 3D Systems' ProJet(R) 3500 3D printer.

"If we used a traditional method for a wax injection tool, it could take up to five weeks and cost well in excess of $20,000," said Turbine Tech's vice president Toby Kutrieb. He went on to explain that the company can now set its 3D printer to build and investment wax cast overnight for a tenth of the cost.

"3D printing is a key component in streamlining traditional manufacturing processes and significantly reducing costs in the process," said Buddy Byrum, Vice President of Product and Channel Management at 3D Systems.

Byrum added, "Turbine Technologies is a perfect example of the progress and achievements that can be made when 3D printing dovetails into traditional processes like this."
