Stratasys Unveils GrabCAD Print Pro 2025—Turbocharging Aerospace Tooling and Additive Workflows

Stratasys Ltd., a global leader in additive manufacturing solutions, today announced the release of GrabCAD Print Pro 2025. Purpose-built to meet the demanding needs of aerospace engineers and production teams, this latest version delivers powerful new features that significantly accelerate the design and production of jigs, fixtures and other production aids—while keeping quality, traceability and regulatory compliance front and center.

“With GrabCAD Print Pro 2025, we’re putting advanced automation and management tools directly into the hands of aerospace professionals who must deliver lighter, stronger components faster than ever,” said Joseph Hogan, CEO of Stratasys. “Our continued focus on end-to-end additive workflow optimization means aerospace manufacturers can spend less time wrestling with software and more time innovating.”

Key Enhancements for Aerospace Applications

Fixture Factory Automation

• Auto-generate complex, precision fixtures in minutes—ideal for holding wing sections, turbine blades and structural assemblies.
• Built-in best-practice templates ensure proper tolerancing, alignment and build-platform orientation for repeatable, high-quality results.

Material and Certification Management

• Centralized library of aerospace-approved thermoplastics, composites and support materials.
• Traceability logs capture batch numbers, print settings and post-processing data—simplifying audits and compliance with AS9100 and NADCAP standards.

Integrated Production Monitoring

• Real-time dashboard tracks every build across your factory floor, with visual alerts for deviations in temperature, layer quality or material flow.
• Seamless connectivity to Pantheon™ MES for end-to-end job scheduling, inventory control and performance analytics.

Simplified Collaboration and Security

• Role-based access controls protect intellectual property while enabling cross-discipline collaboration between design, engineering and quality teams.
• Encrypted file transfers and audit trails ensure all changes are recorded—supporting stringent aerospace ITAR and EAR regulations.

Driving Aerospace Innovation—Faster and Leaner

By streamlining fixture design and production, GrabCAD Print Pro 2025 helps aerospace manufacturers:

• Reduce lead times by up to 60% when preparing production tooling
• Lower material waste with optimized build strategies and support structures
• Accelerate part qualification with built-in process documentation
• Scale from prototyping to full-scale production without re-tooling overhead

Early adopters in the aerospace sector report significant improvements in throughput and cost per part—with engineering teams able to pivot quickly from design iteration to certified production.
