Our team of experts at Stratasys Direct is dedicated to helping your company design freely, improve product quality, and create new opportunities with advanced manufacturing. Through our 3D design and printing services, we ensure seamless 3D designs transition smoothly into production, helping you achieve your final results quickly and effectively.
Our 3D design and printing guidance ensures your designs transition smoothly into production. We help you troubleshoot common issues, recommend improvements, and support you in achieving your final results quickly and effectively.
Shifting to additive manufacturing doesn’t mean re-inventing your product. With our Fulfillment Services Team and Engineer Staff, we work from your existing models — refining geometry, adjusting wall thickness, healing gaps, and preparing parts for smooth printing. Our experience in additive processes ensures that your designs are transformed into high-performance, manufacturable components.
Work with our team of Engineers to optimize and enhance your designs for additive manufacturing. We focus on reviewing and refining your CAD models.
Our DFAM service leverages the geometry you provide to optimize orientation, minimize unnecessary supports, adjust wall thickness, and enhance overall manufacturability. We provide recommendations to reduce cost, improve part performance, and increase print success rates.
Provide your current CAD or STL, and we will review it and provide suggestions such as adding fillets, ribs, cutouts, or other features to the design — always with an eye toward additive manufacturability
We provide guidance on applying colors and textures to your models, including advice on file formats and setup to ensure print-readiness.
We offer guidance on designing manufacturing tools such as jigs and fixtures, helping you leverage additive manufacturing for cost, weight, and time savings. The generation of th 3D data will need to be done by one of our external partners or design owner/s

Computer-aided design (CAD) utilizes a vast range of digital 3D drafting software that help designers, engineers, architects and other manufacturing professionals develop, define and shape a particular component or product in three-dimensional space.
In this day and age, 3D CAD files are the main defining authority for a product and are necessary to fabricate your creations successfully.
Yes; we do offer CAD design services for your projects, or we can recommend several companies who can make your design ready for the real-world if the CAD design involves high levels of product development and concept functionality evaluation. Contact us to learn more.
Yes, we will sign an NDA. We always keep customer information confidential and only release information at the customer’s discretion. If you or your company do not have a standard NDA we can provide you with our NDA which protects both the customer and SDM.
All of our facilities are meet ITAR security regulations and carry ISO 9001 certifications. In addition, we have several sites that carry the aerospace AS91000 certification and more. Additional information on the above and other certifications are available on our Quality Assurance.
