Additive manufacturing is increasingly being used by manufacturers to improve agility on the factory floor, but many still face bottlenecks caused by fragmented software workflows and the need for skilled engineering labor.
To address this challenge, Stratasys has integrated fixturemate by trinckle into the latest version of GrabCAD Print Pro 2025, completing an end-to-end tooling production workflow that helps overcome the shortage of qualified labor manufacturers are facing. The software officially launched in July 2025. Let’s examine its features and how it accelerates tooling production workflows directly in the factory.
GrabCAD Print Pro 2025 simplifies tooling production on the factory floor.
