A year ago, Stratasys completed the acquisition of Origin, providing a photopolymer platform for the fast-growing volume parts production segment, to strengthen its presence in3D printingimportant position in the industry. Stratasys has improved the original Origin One platform with additional resources prior to the global rollout of Origin One.
Before Stratasys acquired Origin, Origin already had some early users of the printer for large-scale production of end parts, and Stratasys got a lot of information and feedback from them.With some well-known customers such as TE Connectivity, InterPro Additive Manufacturing, ECCO Footwear and several chemical industry giants, including
BASF
,
Henkel
Working closely with Covestro gave more ideas and better features for Origin One.
Thanks to these collaborations and feedback, Stratasys has made product improvements in 2021:
More consistent part quality and performance
Through a newly developed and robust material verification program, 12 outstanding materials from partners have been fully optimized, covering high temperature, tough, elastomer, general and
medicine
kind.
Stratasys makes several important upgrades to device firmware throughout the year, making it easier for customers to get a final product in a single print, print parts with greater accuracy and consistency, and without sacrificing part surface quality, feature resolution The printing speed of most materials can be increased by 15% under the condition of high efficiency and finished mechanical properties.
The height of the print space has been increased by 20mm, bringing the total height to 370mm, allowing new users to print larger parts. With a larger, more spacious and brighter print chamber, operators can start their next print job faster, as well as take advantage of the redesigned resin tray to change materials and clean the print area faster.
For customers requiring more options for materials and configurability, the Open Materials License (OML) has been introduced for material developers, researchers and advanced users to take advantage of a full range of configurable parameters and tools to print any compatible

Easier to learn and operate with the support of a global team of experts
The key to manufacturing anywhere with a new technology: how long it takes users to achieve proficiency and efficient production.For many new customers, this is their first experience with resin-based materials3D printingtechnology, it is critical that they provide them with a product that they can quickly grasp, which will

Inspections, touchscreen video walkthroughs and an interface for easy cleaning in case of material spills make setting up new print jobs even easier.
Pre-print software:
All current Stratasys Origin Ones seamlessly integrate advanced software

Netfabb, ensuring that customers have all the software tools they need to connect to their Stratasys printers on day one for the most complete print preparation.
Order experience:
In addition to improving workflow for product operators, it also improves the buying process for customers. Customers can easily purchase verified materials and Origin accessories from the Stratasys Customer Center and specify delivery to virtually any country in the world.In addition, customers are provided with third-party
post-processing
equipment to create a one-stop experience.
Training materials:
The Stratasys team has developed over 100 profiles, including design guidelines and
standard
Operating Procedures (SOPs), as well as operator training manuals, pre-printed software training, and more. To enable customers around the world to take full advantage of Origin One, Stratasys has also trained staff and application engineers around the world.
Extend service life and improve reliability
This year, Stratasys has also changed its business model, from leasing to buying; this requires taking the disposal of obsolete equipment more seriously than ever. The advantage of software-driven printing technology is that major improvements to the printer can continue to be implemented after the printer leaves the factory and for years to come, but upgrading hardware components is not as easy.
The service life of some key components has been thoroughly analyzed, and several updates have been implemented, extending their service life by 3 times, and some components are field replaceable. In the rare event that an equipment downtime does occur, Stratasys has field technicians around the world who can easily replace critical components in the field, ensuring you can resume printing as quickly as possible.
Outlook 2022
Stratasys’ team will continue to create value for Origin’s new and existing customers
software:
P3 technology will be continuously improved through regular online updates. Everything from user experience, reliability, printing performance to workflow will be significantly improved.
