Real Advancements in
additive fabrication
Fortus 3D Production Systems offer
unparalleled versatility and capability to
turn your CAD fi les into real parts. These
parts are tough enough to be used as
advanced conceptual models, functional
prototypes, manufacturing tools and
end-use parts. Engineers can produce a
wide variety of products just by loading
different fi les and materials. No traditional
machining process can do that. And no
other additive fabrication system delivers
the same advanced performance and
production-grade parts as a Fortus 3D
Production System.
Nothing less than Real Parts Whether its a functional prototype or
end-use part, everything a Fortus system
produces is a Real Part. Thats because
theyre built with the same durable
thermoplastics as traditional injectionmolded
plastic parts. Only with Fortus
systems can end-use thermoplastic parts be
produced directly from CAD fi les without
expensive tooling.
Meet the demands of
Real Production
Fortus systems are as versatile and durable
as the Real Parts they produce. They boast
the largest build envelopes and material
capacities in their class, delivering longer,
uninterrupted build times, bigger parts and
higher production run quantities than other
additive fabrication systems. Plus, they are
true production workhorses, delivering the
high throughput, duty cycles and utilization
rates that make direct digital manufacturing
(DDM) not only possible, but practical.
Opening the way for
Real Possibilities
Fortus 3D Production Systems can
streamline processes from design through
manufacturing, reducing costs and
eliminating traditional barriers along the
way. With Fortus, you can build CAD
design, streamline production with custom
fabrication and assembly tools and tooling
masters, and eliminate tooling costs for
short runs. Breakthrough designs, process
innovations, just-in-time manufacturing
whatever you can imagine, Fortus can make
it real.

Manufacture Real Parts in ABSplus plastic
FDM 200mc ™ creates real parts in durable ABSplus plastic, tough enough for conceptual prototype, moderate functional testing and end-use parts. FDM 200mc uses patented FDM™ (Fused Deposition Modeling) technology and is designed to fit in any office environment without the need for special venting or office modifications.
Designed to be simple to use, the FDM 200mc gives you the key features you need for practical prototyping. Just plug it in, load material and manufacture parts. The simplicity of dissolving support structures with WaterWorks™ saves processing time, meaning you can manufacture more parts in less time.
Driven by powerful Insight ™ software, which automatically imports and prepares STL files for processing makes the FDM 200mc simple to operate and allows you the control to automatically process your part with a single button or customize your part to optimize aesthetics, feature strength, resolution, material consumption and/or throughput.
FDM 200mc System Highlights:
- Affordable FDM system with key features and benefits
- Powerful Insight software
- Office operation without venting
Build Envelope:
8 x 8 x 12 inches (203 x 203 x 305mm)
Real Material:
- ABSplus
- WaterWorks soluble support system FDM 200mc System Size (XYZ):
27 x 34 x 41 inches (686 x 864 x 1041 mm)

Real Results.
Advanced prototypes:
For this and other sprinkler
projects at Toro, Fortus
systems help reduced productdevelopment
time by 283
weeks and saved $500,000.
Advanced manufacturing tools:
At BMW, costs for producing
manufacturing tools dropped
signifi cantly when engineers
started producing tools with
Fortus systems.
Advanced end-use parts:
Klock Werks uses direct digital
manufacturing to build custom
motorcycle parts on their Fortus
system, saving nearly $13,000.
FDM parts cost less than a
quarter the price to injection
mold or cast them.
