Bye to all,
I came back from hong kong where we were presented some aspects of the stratasys agreement with hp.
I open a very fast bracket. thank you to all in our customers, including ipdesign, for the trust they have given us, thanks to which we have been awarded among the best European retailers. :redface:
for dragon. there are already systems that produce metal pieces. see the products of Arcam. but you must have a nice wallet!!!
for ipdesign. Dear Paolo, the agreement does not touch the size and therefore you still have to deal with the "red"!
for the moment they did not tell us the type of machine and its costs. in March we will know more. They will certainly do an intensive marketing activity. . .
and if hp has decided to launch on this market will be sharpening the weapons.

You know, when you told me hp I'd expect a direction towards a polyjet technology, at the end of the day they have a remarkable experience on the inkjet and they would have had strength in my opinion.
but maybe they have some ace in the sleeve .. we will see

Well... if for this reason they have great experience in pen plates that in the 80s along with those of ibm and calcomp have dominated the market.
but here the situation is different. This is not about their know-how but "simplely" is a financial/commercial operation. they had to choose the easiest and less expensive technology for the market. There are not many possibilities. . .of course polyjet has its advantages as well as fdm. but in the sum of positive and negative aspects as well as in the possibility of hp to expand the range (if you think about how many machines has stratasys between uprint, dimension and fortus) evidently stratasys seemed the most sensible choice. we will see if the market will be right. ci will be right because in the meantime we will be part of the restricted group of authorized retailers. It's a good challenge.

Well, sure, yeah.
But I can think of whether this is a bad thing for us or not.
on the one hand it frightens me that everyone can have the opportunity to have their own prototype from their printer = end of the service .
On the other hand, I hope that the diffusion of this type of production will lead to a reduction in print costs by bringing the technology itself to the reach of all = the service would work for the small private / hobbyist or for the small designer.
but we hope well

I don't think that's a bad thing. will surely make known to so many more people this technology. the small (hobbista or small company) will find the right product, but I think that the big company or who needs more sophisticated prototypes will continue to need you.
and more people realize the potential of these systems as much as you will have required. wohlers docet.
Have a good day!
