An Israeli company, Stratasys Ltd (NASDAQ:)., saw shares climb after the company raised its earnings outlook for the year and unexpectedly turned an adjusted profit in the third quarter.
I have waited for a very long time for companies who pioneer 3-D printing to begin to turn profits as they have spent massive amounts of money on research and development and have been way less concerned with shareholders’ profits. 
Here is a list of some of the areas 3-D printing impacts
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Consumer Products
- Dental
- Medical (TASE:)
- Education
- Art and Fashion
- Agriculture
- Applications
- Manufacturing
- Investment Casting
- Jigs and Fixtures
- Production Parts
- Rapid Prototyping
- Packaging
- Design
- Composite Tooling
- Dentures
Furthermore, SSYS has become the official 3D Printing Partner of NASCAR, which will now exclusively use Stratasys 3D printing technology for the design and production of parts and tools.
