Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team May 28, 2009

Solido, a specialist in the desktop 3D printing of physical models, is to display its SD300 Pro at the PTC User Forum on 7-10 June in Orlando, Florida.

The cost-effective, time-efficient and intuitive SD300, which will be found on Booth 423, has already been installed in hundreds of sites, according to the company.

The SD300 Pro, which will be introduced at less than USD10,000 (GBP6,300), uses layers of firm but flexible engineered plastics.

The finished models resemble injected plastic parts and can be drilled, sanded or painted as desired.

Output from the SD300 Pro can be designed to fold, allowing for model manipulation.

The product is also capable of producing transparent models.

The SD300 Pro will allow industrial design companies and engineering companies to prepare proof-of-concept modelling, ergonomic evaluations and marketing tools.

It will also serve as an advanced educational tool for universities and technical colleges, according to Solido.
