Stratasys, a provider of 3D printing solutions, has fully launched its "Bold Machines" unit. This new product incubation company will be run by Bre Pettis, founder of MakerBot.

Bold Machines, according to Stratasys, is a workshop that helps customers innovate and fabricate their ideas with 3D printing. Since it started in 2014, as a division of Stratasys, it has helped dozens of innovators accelerate their designs.

In addition to helping product designers, the company plans on continuing to explore product manufacturing with Stratasys 3D printers.

"I have built tools that empower other people to build products for the last decade, and I'm excited to jump over the fence and build products myself," says Bre Pettis. "With a strong passion for innovation and the future of product design, we will begin a new chapter with Bold Machines. We believe that by changing the way things are made, 3D printing will have incalculable impact on our lives and our future."
