Why Choose the Stratasys F170?

The F170 has been engineered to make industrial additive manufacturing accessible without compromising on quality or reliability. Automated calibration, material management and straightforward operation allow users of all experience levels to produce consistent, high-quality parts with minimal training.
Built around Stratasys’ proven FDM technology, the F170 provides exceptional repeatability, making it an ideal solution for engineering departments, production facilities and research organisations that require dependable results every day.

Industrial FDM Printing Made Simple

Unlike desktop 3D printers, the Stratasys F170 has been designed for continuous professional use. Every aspect of the system—from automatic material loading and build tray management to software integration—has been developed to minimise user intervention and maximise productivity.
The enclosed heated build chamber helps produce consistent, high-quality parts with reduced warping, while soluble support material allows engineers to create intricate internal channels, undercuts and complex assemblies that would be impossible to manufacture conventionally.
For organisations looking to bring additive manufacturing into everyday engineering workflows, the F170 provides an excellent balance between capability, ease of use and operating cost.

Materials

The F170 supports a range of production-grade thermoplastics suitable for functional engineering applications. Examples include, but are not limited to:

ASA – Excellent UV stability and weather resistance make ASA ideal for outdoor components, functional prototypes and production tooling.
ABS-M30™ – A proven engineering thermoplastic offering excellent strength, toughness and machinability for functional prototypes and manufacturing applications.
PLA – A cost-effective material for concept models, educational environments and rapid design iteration.
TPU 92A – Flexible thermoplastic polyurethane for seals, gaskets, grips, protective covers and other elastomeric components.

Applications

The versatility of the Stratasys F170 makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.

Functional Prototyping – Produce durable prototypes that accurately represent the performance and fit of production components, enabling faster design validation and reduced development cycles.
Manufacturing Tooling – Create custom jigs, fixtures, assembly aids and inspection tools that improve production efficiency while reducing tooling costs and lead times.
Product Development – Rapidly iterate new designs, test concepts and evaluate assemblies before committing to expensive tooling or manufacturing processes.
Low-Volume Manufacturing – Manufacture customised or low-volume production parts without the need for injection moulding or machining.
Education and Research – Support engineering education and applied research with reliable industrial-grade additive manufacturing technology that reflects real-world production environments.
Maintenance and Spare Parts – Produce replacement components and maintenance tooling on demand, reducing inventory requirements and minimising equipment downtime.
