3D Systems Unveils High-Throughput Platform, Factory Software

3D Systems shares new hardware, software, and applications to scale additive manufacturing into production environments requiring high throughput, repeatability, and process control.

At RAPID + TCT 2026 (Booth #1801), April 13-16, 2026 in Boston, 3D Systems will introduce the SLA 825 Dual to the U.S. market, a next‑generation stereolithography system engineered to boost production output while maintaining accuracy and consistency needed for industrial manufacturing, 3D Systems reports. The company is also unveiling AddiTrak, a factory‑floor software platform built for managing connected 3D Systems production environments, according to 3D Systems.

These innovations reinforce 3D Systems’ strategy to deliver production‑ready additive manufacturing solutions that integrate hardware, software, materials, and application expertise to move beyond prototyping and into scaled manufacturing.

Maximizing SLA Speed, Productivity

The SLA 825 Dual features a 22% larger build volume and delivers up to 25% faster build speeds than its predecessor. Made for high‑utilization environments, the system supports applications such as motorsports, full-scale precision prototyping, and investment casting patterns

By combining higher throughput with SLA precision, the SLA 825 Dual provides a scalable solution for transitioning stereolithography into high-volume production workflows, according to 3D Systems.

Driving Efficiency with AddiTrak

3D Systems announces AddiTrak, a secure, on‑premises software platform designed for the entire range of 3D Systems printers and accompanying workflows. AddiTrak provides centralized monitoring, analytics, and optimization across the production floor through a unified dashboard, while supporting Industry 4.0‑compatible connectivity.

AddiTrak is fully native to the 3D Systems ecosystem and integrates with 3D Sprint, enabling a connected, end‑to‑end workflow. AddiTrak is fully on-premises and under customers' control, through all stages of the manufacturing process.

Real‑World Production Examples

3D Systems will highlight customer application examples that demonstrate additive manufacturing supporting production. One of these is Eureka Pumps AS, based in Norway, which has partnered with 3D Systems to manufacture large-format metal spare parts on demand, using 3D Systems Direct Metal Printing technology.

“The industrialization of additive manufacturing continues to accelerate as more companies realize its ability to deliver both performance gains through design innovation and operational flexibility through digital production,” says Patrick Dunne, senior vice president, Technical Fellow, 3D Systems.

“Over the past several years, we’ve made disciplined investments to refresh our portfolio and focus on manufacturing applications where additive delivers the greatest value,” says Dr. Jeff Graves, president and CEO, 3D Systems. “At RAPID + TCT 2026, we’re demonstrating how those investments are translating into production-focused solutions, from high‑throughput stereolithography to connected software platforms that improve visibility and control across the full range of factory environments.”
