100 percent of ClearCorrect dental models are now 3D printed ---- Digital dentistry workflow allows prompt scale-up with demand

Minneapolis and Rehovot, Israel - May 12, 2015 - Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq:SSYS), a leading global provider of 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions, announced today that ClearCorrect LLC, a leading manufacturer of clear aligners, has incorporated an additional batch of Objet Eden500V 3D Printers to its sizable fleet of Stratasys 3D Printers. With this addition, ClearCorrect will now realize a 30 percent increase in its capacity to produce custom-made orthodontic aligners.

Stratasys 3D Printers are a key component of the ClearCorrect manufacturing process. With the use of the Objet Eden500V 3D Printer, the company can quickly print 3D models throughout each step of a patients orthodontic treatment. The process begins with a digitized scan of a patients mouth. This scan is used to create accurate 3D printed models, which are then thermoformed with a specially formulated plastic to create custom, clear aligners. When worn, the aligners will apply pressure to the patients teeth that need to be moved. Every two to three weeks, the patient will begin wearing a new set of aligners to continue the realignment process until treatment is complete.

The additional Stratasys 3D Printers that ClearCorrect has added will benefit their customers by shortening the companys lead times, and also by helping to accommodate rush orders. ClearCorrect's previous investment in the Objet series of 3D Printers has been realized several times over with optimized workflows, faster production, and delivery of clear aligners on a mass scale; all at a lower cost per case.

"Initially we started with just a few 3D printers, and we have quickly transitioned to full production, where 100 percent of our models are now 3D printed," said Jarrett Pumphrey, CEO of ClearCorrect. "Were growing fast and adding more Stratasys 3D Printers to our digital workflow means that we can easily scale up with demand—enabling us to service more doctors with faster delivery times."

"The 3D printers alone are not the only reason for working with Stratasys," added Pumphrey. "Stratasys really stands behind their 3D printers, and we are extremely happy with the dedicated support we receive from their technicians and customer support team."

"We wanted to help the ClearCorrect team take their already booming business to new levels," said Avi Cohen, Director of Global Dental at Stratasys. "The versatility of the Objet Eden500V 3D Printers gives ClearCorrect the ability to efficiently manufacture high quality aligners on a mass scale, expand in existing markets, and enter new markets. The decision to expand their 3D printing operation demonstrates how Stratasys has earned ClearCorrects trust through reliable performance and customer support."
