New bonus pack gives engineers the ability to order digitally manufactured prototypes and production parts right from their desktop
MINNEAPOLIS--Dec. 8, 2008--RedEye (www.redeyeondemand.com), a business unit of Stratasys (NASDQ: SSYS), announced at Autodesk University (AU) 2008 in Las Vegas last week - that AutoCAD users can now order digitally manufactured prototypes and production parts quickly and easily through a new on-demand 3D printing capability.
AutoCAD 2009 subscription customers now have access to this new functionality via a new bonus pack. Included in the new bonus pack is on-line ordering capability, giving designers and engineers the ability to get instant quotes and place orders from a trusted vendor - all from their desktop.
"This new capability will help designers save time and cut costs which are crucial in the product development cycle," said Wayne Olson, Vice President of RedEye by Stratasys. "With companies constantly striving to get products to market faster, we are delighted to work with Autodesk to further improve the productivity of AutoCAD users."
Having the ability to get models quickly enables designers to review concepts with team members and customers, a significant advantage to getting products to market quicker. When designers place their order, they can select RedEye's Overnight Build (www.redeyeondemand.com), and get their models delivered the next day.
"Designers in nearly every industry will benefit from this new version of AutoCAD because it's easy to go from idea to 3D design to functional prototype," said Tim Thellin, RedEye Product Manager. "We understand that our customer's needs differ across industries. With RedEye, the user may choose to print their 3D model with RedEye On Demand (www.redeyeondemand.com) for mechanical AutoCAD designers, or RedEye ARC (www.redeyearc.com) customized for designers in the architectural and residential building fields."
