3D Systems plans to launch 3-D printer

3D Systems plans to launch the InVision LD 3-D Printer, a new affordable desktop 3-D Printer. This printer is manufactured by Solidimension Ltd., an Israeli-based company, and would be offered by 3D Systems under its own brand name pending successful completion of an OEM private label arrangement with Solidimension. Offered at $22,900, the printer is an affordable, simple and compact desktop 3-D printer with the simplicity and functionality of broadly used 2-D printers. It builds complex geometrical shapes from 3-D CAD one slice thickness at a time by fusing, masking and trimming layers of proprietary VisiJet LD100 engineered plastic into solid parts. The system is office friendly, delivers dry parts and requires no post processing. The InVision LD printer is designed for communication and concept modeling applications specifically for designers, engineers and marketers. It is also ideal as an educational tool for university, technical college and high school engineering and industrial design departments.
