Take a closer look at how Stratasys Additive Manufacturing is helping a company entrenched in Powersports vehicles drive innovation forward. Polaris is most commonly known for developing snowmobiles and off-road vehicles. With all the hands-on assembly work that the company does in the plant, they've begun to use 3D printing to change the way that they make tooling. Much of what the company does works around different styles of tooling. Polaris says the biggest benefit of partnering with Stratasys and their technology is the ability to iterate on new tooling designs.

Stratasys introduced a new work order management software solution for shops that provide centralized 3D printing services. GrabCAD Shop is designed to streamline work order management processes by improving the way engineers, designers and shop operators collaborate on 3D printing orders, the company says. According to Stratasys’ analysis, approximately 15% of work hours in a typical 3D print shop are wasted tracking down work order requirements and manually communicating status updates to engineers, designers and operators. GrabCAD Shop streamlines this process. Requiring no IT implementation support, the cloud-based software organizes print work requests, CAD files, and project specs all in…
