Medical device development demands more than accurate prototypes—it requires confidence in real-world performance.

When prototype materials don't match the behavior of final molded parts, validating critical characteristics such as sealing, compression, flexibility and durability becomes a challenge, often leading to longer development cycles and higher costs.

With Stratasys' Origin® P3™ technology and P3™ MED Silicone 25A, medical manufacturers can produce biocompatible silicone parts that closely replicate the performance of injection-molded components, enabling:

🟥 Earlier functional testing with production-representative materials
🟥 More confident design validation before tooling investment
🟥 Reduced development risk and costly design iterations
🟥 Cost-effective production of low-volume medical parts

Whether you're developing seals, gaskets, valves or patient-contact components, the right additive manufacturing solution can help accelerate innovation while reducing time to market.

As Stratasys' partner, Lino helps manufacturers identify the right 3D printing technologies to streamline product development and bring medical innovations to life.

The future of marine maintenance is becoming more digital—and more on demand.

🟥 For commercial fleets, operational efficiency depends on keeping vessels moving. Industrial 3D printing is helping transform maintenance strategies by enabling the on-demand production of non-critical spare parts, tools, and accessories, wherever they're needed.

The benefits are clear:

✔️ Reduced vessel downtime
✔️ Faster availability of non-critical spare parts
✔️ Lower inventory and logistics costs
✔️ Greater operational flexibility during voyages
✔️ On-demand production of customized tools and accessories
✔️ A more resilient and efficient maintenance strategy

As a Stratasys partner, Lino can help marine companies leverage industrial additive manufacturing to improve maintenance operations, optimize spare parts management, and increase operational efficiency.

Could onboard 3D printing become part of your fleet's maintenance strategy?

When does 3D printing become a true production technology?

For Bifrost, the answer was the Stratasys H350 printer powered by SAF technology.
By moving beyond the limitations of traditional additive manufacturing, Bifrost achieved:

🟥 6–8× higher throughput
🟥 Up to 80% labor savings
🟥 40% lower production costs
🟥 More than 50% material savings

The result? A successful transition from prototyping to full-scale production, securing high-volume manufacturing contracts and expanding into new industries.

For manufacturers looking to scale production while improving efficiency and reducing costs, this is a powerful example of what industrial additive manufacturing can achieve.

When innovation meets mission-critical manufacturing, the results speak for themselves.

🟥A recent Stratasys case study demonstrates how additive manufacturing helped keep C-17 aircraft operational for the U.S. Air Force, by producing certified replacement parts on demand. What once took weeks and cost around $10,000 per part can now be manufactured in approximately 60 hours for about $1,200—while also providing a solution for obsolete components that are no longer available.

As a Stratasys partner, Lino is proud to bring these same advanced additive manufacturing technologies to businesses across multiple industries.

For our customers, this means:

✔ Faster production of functional parts and prototypes
✔ Reduced manufacturing costs and lead times
✔ On-demand production of spare or discontinued components
✔ Greater design freedom for complex geometries
✔ Increased supply chain resilience and business continuity

Whether you're in aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, healthcare, or industrial production, additive manufacturing is no longer just a prototyping tool—it's a strategic manufacturing solution that helps companies become faster, more agile, and more competitive.

At Lino, we're committed to helping our customers unlock the full potential of Stratasys 3D printing technology and transform the way they design, produce, and innovate.
