Stratasys introduces new printer for serial production, alongside F870 European debut

Stratasys is to announce a new manufacturing solution, debut the F870 FDM system in Europe and showcase factory floor applications from Toyota, GM and other manufacturers at Formnext 2026, November 17 to 20, in hall 12.1, booth D129 at Messe Frankfurt.

The Stratasys exhibit will demonstrate applications across the company’s broad additive manufacturing portfolio, from consumer parts to industrial production at scale.

‘Additive manufacturing is becoming an essential part of the modern factory floor, giving manufacturers greater flexibility, efficiency, resilience and control over how they produce,’ said Dr Yoav Zeif, CEO of Stratasys. ‘We see that shift accelerating across industries, from aerospace and defence to automotive and dental, as customers scale additive from individual applications into production workflows. At Formnext, we are showing the technology, software and expertise that make that possible at scale.’

Stratasys will unveil a new manufacturing scale solution. Designed for high volume production of consistent, end use polymer parts, the system will expand the company’s production-focused portfolio with a scalable solution built for manufacturing environments. The system name and full details will be announced at Formnext.

The company will also participate in the Formnext Defence Summit on November 17, showcasing solutions for advanced manufacturing with additive for military, government, OEM and industry leaders around production applications, supply chain optimisation and real world defence applications.

The F870 FDM system will make its European debut, demonstrating large format production of tooling, fixtures, jigs and manufacturing aids. Designed for factory floor manufacturing, the F870 printer combines a 1000 x 610 x 610 mm fully heated build chamber with industrial materials and extended unattended operation, enabling manufacturers to bring large tooling and production applications in-house.

Visitors to the Stratasys booth will see how manufacturers are using additive manufacturing today to solve real production challenges, from production tooling and manufacturing aids to end use parts and scalable digital workflows.

New solutions on display will help manufacturers meet application specific requirements and improve productivity.

The booth will also highlight automation and robotic applications, alongside technologies spanning FDM, SAF, PolyJet, SLA and P3 DLP.
