(NASDAQ: SSYS), a manufacturer of 3D printers and materials for personal use, prototyping, and production, today announced that Hyphen, the in-house rapid prototyping center of Christie Digital Systems, is utilising Stratasys 3D printing to rigorously test commercial digital projectors and explore new industries and applications. According to Mark Barfoot, Managing Director at Hyphen, employing both Stratasys FDM and PolyJet 3D printing technologies has enabled the product development team to focus on ensuring customers get the perfect design before the final mold is produced. "The main benefit for Hyphen is that when we go to market, the product is manufactured right the first time, ensuring our customers get something that has been optimised specifically for them. We've seen a real mind-set change in our engineers. They are no longer willing to live with one prototype and hope it works, but instead are now iterating daily to ensure they get the optimum design.
