Unboxing A Stratasys

Brad Rigdon, the owner of PrintTo3D, a small 3D print service just received a brand new Stratasys Fortus 250mc commercial 3D printer. While we often see unboxing scenes of much smaller personal 3D printers, here's an opportunity to see the unboxing of a much larger - and much more expensive - commercial 3D printer. Check out his photo sequence at PrintTo3D's Facebook page at the link below.

Until recently the Fortus series consisted of monstrously huge machines, but the 250mc manages to squeeze a great many Fortus-exclusive capabilities into the same footprint as the Dimension series. These machines are far outside the realm of "Personal manufacturing" but it could foreshadow a similar shift of capabilities from the Dimension series into the uPrint series, or even the spawning of even lower-priced models below the current uPrint.
