The Stratasys Fortus 450mc is a workhorse industrial 3D printer, with more than 92 percent of them installed within the past decade still in use.

Designed for customers who demand durability, precision, and repeatability, the Fortus 450mc printer has proven its value across aerospace, automotive, and other general industrial sectors. Manufacturers worldwide utilize the system to create high-strength jigs, fixtures, production tooling, and end-use parts, supported with industrial-grade performance and material versatility.

The new Fortus 450mc printer enhances this legacy with bundled upgrades designed to improve application range, productivity, connectivity and security. New features include:

• Hardened components to support materials like FDM^® Nylon 12CF and Antero^®
• An all-materials license for full access to the Fortus 450mc materials portfolio
• A one-year license for GrabCAD Streamline Pro™ and GrabCAD Print Pro™

GrabCAD Streamline Pro software provides enterprise-grade cybersecurity capabilities to protect Stratasys printers and the network from cyber threats and business disruptions. GrabCAD Print Pro license software delivers greater precision, real-time insights, and workflow optimization. It also includes access to fixturemate by trinckle, a new feature that simplifies and automates custom fixture creation.

Additional upgrades expected later this year include support for new glass-filled, fire-resistant material and faster build capabilities for certain materials, further expanding the system’s role as a factory-floor-ready solution.

“An incredible testament to the system’s reliability is that 10 years after installation, 92% of Fortus 450mc printers are still producing parts,” said Rich Garrity, Chief Business Unit Officer at Stratasys. “With this new factory-floor-ready tooling solution, we’ve taken everything our customers already trust and enhanced it to deliver even greater manufacturing value. It’s another example of how Stratasys continues to build on our foundation of success and lead innovation in the FDM space.”
