3 Direct Digital Manufacturing Introduction Materials Additive Fabrication Applications Cost difference: traditional tooling vs. DDM Niche markets Case Studies

4 Additive Fabrication SSYS Additive Fabrication - Part construction through an additive process directly from a computer aided design (CAD) file. Additive Process Also known as Rapid Prototyping (RP) 3D Printing (3DP) Direct Digital Manufacturing (DDM)

5 Stratasys Technology SSYS Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) - Our patented process constructs a part through the deposition of multiple layers of molten plastic. Liquefier Production grade plastic parts Extrusion Plastic Filament Material Cartridge Highly accurate Office friendly Core technology behind all Stratasys systems Strong Inexpensive vs. competition IP: 180+ patents worldwide

7 Product Trends Quicker product release More niche products More custom products Lower volume and higher margin products Quicker iterations

8 DDM is growing DDM % of Total RP Est 2009 Est 20% of FDM system users have produced parts for end use (DDM) on their system in some frequency(2008).

9 Traditional Manufacturing Rapid Prototyping Bridge Tooling & Pre- Production Production

10 Revolution in Manufacturing Rapid Prototyping Bridge Tooling & Pre- Production DDM Production

11 Attributes of a DDM application On demand parts - anytime Low production volume High probability for design iterations Complex geometries, internal features Low demand on tolerances (< +/-.005 ), Low demand on surface finish

12 Rapid Tooling Today High-speed mill (42,000 rpm s) 7075 T-6 aluminum mold inserts Controlled cooling / heating Full ejection Small cutters/deeper cuts Family tools Automatic pick outs

13 Advantages of Rapid Tooling Wide range of material selections High geometry tolerances Superior surface finish Lower cost at higher volumes

14 Disadvantages of Rapid Tooling Capital Investment required Cost and time penalties for tool modifications Design constraints Part size limitations

15 Advantages of Direct Digital Manufacturing No capital investment required Production parts on demand No cost or time penalties for design modifications No design constraints Complex geometries Large part capabilities

16 Disadvantages of DDM Limited material selections Not Applicable for high volume production Fine feature detail Surface finish Strength

17 Additive Fabrication Applications Prototypes End use production parts Fabrication & assembly tools F.A.T. jigs/fixtures Bridge to tooling

18 Large Complex Parts DDM advantages
