Acu-Cast Technologies Adds Two 3D Systems' Viper(TM) Pro Systems to Its Fleet

3D Systems Corporation (NASDAQ: TDSC), a leading provider of 3-D Modeling, Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing solutions, announced today that Acu-Cast Technologies, LLC, a leading Preferred Parts Service Provider (PSP), has purchased its third and fourth Viper™ Pro SLA® Systems from 3D Systems, doubling its Pro Parts manufacturing capabilities for its customers for the second time in five months.

Acu-Cast installed its first Viper™ Pro SLA® System in October 2007 and experienced an immediate and significant growth in its business and positive marketplace response from its first Pro Parts capable system. Bolstered by its early success, in December 2007, Acu-Cast purchased a second system. With faster speed and higher definition, the Viper™ Pro SLA® System manufactures parts with exceptional feature details, accuracy, surface finish and large part size that are ordinarily associated with CNC machining.

Responding to increased demand for Pro Parts, Acu-Cast Technologies decided to double its Pro Parts manufacturing capacity for the second time this year with the purchase of two more 3D Systems’ Viper™ Pro SLA® Systems.

“Responding to the significant demand for Pro Parts, we felt the need for additional capacity to our rapidly growing Stereolithography department,” said Gary D. Mitchell, owner of Acu-Cast Technologies. “We are in business to give our customers what they ask for, and since we installed our first Viper™ Pro System we just couldn’t keep up with demand for larger parts with good detail, quickly. With four Viper™ Pro SLA® Systems in-house, we are positioning ourselves as a leading Pro Parts provider in North America with state-of-the-art capacity to meet and exceed our customers’ needs. We use the latest 3D Systems’ Accura® Materials to give our customers fast, precision prototyping as part of our mission to become an extension of our customers’ design, tool room and manufacturing departments.”

“It’s a real privilege to work with successful entrepreneurial partners like Gary Mitchell, who recognizes the clear advantages of our latest technology and does not hesitate to continuously invest in it to the benefit of his growing customer base,” said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems’ president and chief executive officer. “Once again, as a premium provider, Gary has demonstrated the value of our authorized channel to bring the latest most advanced precision parts and pattern-manufacturing capabilities to the marketplace. As more and more end-users recognize the virtues of our Pro Parts and ask for them by name, the commitment of authorized parts’ manufacturing channel partners like Acu-Cast to supply this growing demand is critical to our success in serving the expanding parts and pattern marketplace.”
