In-House 3D Printer Pays for Itself Within 3 Months

Typically, it used to take Black & Decker three to five days to get a prototype back from an outside service bureau and it would cost money each time a part was sent.

The Black & Decker design team decided to purchase a Stratasys Dimension 3D printer. Now they are able to produce more prototypes in-house and shorten their development cycles.


Parts that previously took three days can now be ready in just a few hours and Black & Decker saw the Dimension 3D Printer pay for itself within three months.
