This year's Paris Air Show (15th to 21st June, Le Bourget Exhibition Centre, France) will see leading additive manufacturing and 3D printing provider, Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq: SSYS), demonstrate how its technology helps aerospace companies increase supply chain efficiency, produce lighter weight flight parts and improve buy-to-fly ratios.

Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq:SSYS), a leading global provider of 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions, announces that leading aircraft manufacturer Airbus has produced more than 1,000 flight parts on its Stratasys FDM 3D Production Systems for use in the first-of-type A350 XWB aircraft, delivered in December 2014. The 3D printed parts were used in place of traditionally manufactured parts to increase supply chain flexibility, enabling Airbus to meet its delivery commitment on-time. Airbus initiated development and certification of 3D printing with Stratasys in 2013 as a schedule risk reduction activity that proved valuable for the A350 XWB program, highlighting a key benefit of 3D printing in the manufacturing industry.
