- New software solution combines the
power of multi-material 3D printing with true voxel-level control
enabling users to create advanced structures, gradient color
patterns, internal properties and textures to fit precise material
requirements
- Solution unlocks new world of
innovation for Research, Development, Biomedical Modeling, and
Product Design

LAIKA and Singapore University
Stratasys (Nasdaq:SSYS), a global leader in applied additive
technology solutions, today introduced GrabCAD Voxel Print, a new
software solution for its J750 3D printing solution which provides
true voxel level control during the design and 3D printing process.
Manipulating microscopic voxels, which are the building blocks of
3D printing, enables users to achieve 3D printed effects and
properties not possible before. This, combined with the unique full
color, multi-material 3D printing capability of the Stratasys J750
3D Printing Solution, opens up a new world of Digital Materials and
advanced structures for a range of demanding customer applications,
including Academic Research, Product Design, and Biomedical, as
well as Art, Design & Animation.

training organizations can use GrabCAD Voxel Print to create
ultra-realistic anatomical models, such as this cancellous,
mesh-like bone, for practicing surgical procedures such as cutting,
reaming and drilling. (Photo: Business Wire)

“With GrabCAD Voxel Print, we are taking the power of our unique
PolyJet™ full color, multi-material capability used by customers
all over the world and multiplying exponentially the opportunities
it affords.
This machine control utility is designed to enable our customers
to manipulate thousands of materials at the voxel level to produce
3D models that fit precise material requirements unachievable any
other way. It, in effect, turns the Stratasys J750 3D Printer into
the world’s premium platform for experimentation, discovery and
innovation,” said Gina Scala, Director of Marketing for Global
Education, Stratasys. “Amazing new product ideas are often born in
the research lab; that’s where GrabCAD Voxel Print can make a
substantial impact on design and manufacturing.”
Create Virtually Any Digital Material for a Range of
ApplicationsStratasys’ unique Digital Materials are achieved by
combining PolyJet™ photopolymers inside the 3D printer. The
Stratasys J750 platform, equipped with GrabCAD Voxel Print, unlocks
the ability to manipulate these 3D printed material concentrations,
structures and color mapping at the voxel level. This allows users
to produce entirely new Digital Materials for their specialized
needs – creating advanced structures, gradient color patterns,
internal properties and textures never before possible with 3D
printing, to meet precise material requirements for various
applications.
“With 3D printing, LAIKA is successfully reviving the
age-old technique of stop-motion animation. And this sets
us off on an amazing journey. The Stratasys
multi-material PolyJet™ technology empowers our animators
with the precise, voxel-level control necessary to
build the most intricate, creative characters we can imagine. In
shot-by-shot, custom animation, this level of detail is critical to
bring these films to life. That's something LAIKA just
couldn't achieve with other technology," explained Brian McLean,
Head of Rapid Prototyping at LAIKA.
Users can use their own model layer slicer tool to assign
properties at the voxel level, slice by slice, creating the ability
to go beyond boundary representation to volumetric modeling.
Stratasys is therefore enabling the user to design and fabricate a
part from the inside out. GrabCAD Voxel Print generates a GrabCAD
Voxel File (GCVF) that can be directly loaded to GrabCAD and
fabricated on the Stratasys J750 3D Printer.
“GrabCAD Voxel Print is a game-changing production technology.
For us it’s driving inquiry into new design automation approaches
that span and integrate architectural, industrial and engineering
design,” said Martin Dunn, Associate Provost for Research and
Co-Director, Digital Manufacturing and Design (DManD) Center,
Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). “This is
leading to new ways to conceive and create products that blur the
traditional line between material and structure and traditional
boundaries between the digital and physical world.”
GrabCAD Voxel Print is immediately available for use with the
Stratasys J750 full color, multi-material 3D Printer and GrabCAD
Print.
