Stratasys has announced the launch of its Post Processing Partnership Program, with PostProcess Technologies named as the first partner.
The additive manufacturing (AM) company says the programme aims to simplify how users choose post-processing solutions to finish 3D printed parts - such as cleaning, resin removal, support removal, smoothing and curing - by providing curated and validated access to third-party equipment.
“Customers are increasingly focused on optimising the entire additive manufacturing workflow, not just individual steps, and the Post Processing Partnership Program is designed to make post-processing easier to adopt and better integrated into production environments,” said Rich Garrity, Chief Industrial Business Officer at Stratasys. “PostProcess Technologies is a great fit for this program because they are a well-established partner with a strong reputation, and many of our customers already rely on their solutions today. This agreement builds on that foundation and brings unique value to the market.”
Through its first commercial agreement, Stratasys’ global sales channels will offer PostProcess Technologies' post-processing equipment alongside Stratasys printers under a single Stratasys purchase order. PostProcess Technologies' portfolio supports multiple Stratasys technologies, including FDM, PolyJet, SLA, and P3.
Jeff Mize, CEO of PostProcess Technologies, added, “This agreement deepens our alignment with the clear industry leader, extending our commercial reach and making it easier for customers to deploy proven post-processing solutions as part of a unified additive manufacturing workflow.”
