Stratasys will demonstrate its production-grade additive manufacturing technologies at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) 2026, taking place from September 14 to 19 in Chicago, Illinois. The company will showcase platforms, engineering materials, hardware, software systems, and manufacturing services designed to reduce tooling lead times, lower costs, improve operational efficiency, and address supply chain disruptions across aerospace, defense, automotive, healthcare, and industrial sectors.
Hardware Innovations and Functional Tooling
Exhibits at the Stratasys booth will focus on factory-floor implementations spanning assembly fixtures, manufacturing aids, specialized tooling, and final end-use components. The company will highlight several recent product and materials developments configured for production environments:
- F870 3D Printer: A large-format FDM platform equipped with a 1-meter build length within a fully heated chamber, integrated filament drying capabilities, and support for carbon fiber-reinforced FDM Nylon 12CF to produce strong, durable tooling and functional components.
- ASA Military Colors for Fortus Systems: Dedicated, mission-specific material color options developed for defense applications subject to visual and regulatory operational standards for fielded equipment.
- Somos Resolute Gray: A stereolithography resin formulated for industrial and automotive parts demanding stiffness, dimensional stability, and production-ready surface finishes directly out of the build.
- Additive App Suite: A software solution powered by trinckle that enables production engineering teams to design trays, fixtures, and shop-floor tooling in minutes without CAD software, allowing output on any 3D printer.
"Manufacturers are looking for proven solutions they can scale across production environments," stated Rich Garrity, Chief Business Unit Officer at Stratasys. "At IMTS, we’re showing the full picture: certified materials, production-grade hardware, qualified workflows and real results from manufacturers who have moved well beyond the pilot stage."
Technical Expert Presentations
Across the show, Stratasys technical specialists will deliver informational sessions focusing on the deployment of additive manufacturing at industrial scale. Presentations will cover topics including aerospace and defense production, end-use drone fabrication, digital manufacturing workflow qualification, and dimensional accuracy and repeatability across high-volume production runs.
