Castor, an Israeli software company, and Ultimaker, a 3D printer manufacturer based in The Netherlands, are integrating two of their leading 3D printing solutions — Castor’s part screening software and Ultimaker’s Digital Factory. The integration of Castor’s part screening software and Ultimaker’s Digital Factory is designed to provide a tool for Ultimaker printer users to help them find new business cases and discover opportunities to save costs with their existing hardware.

The integration enables users to scan all of their parts at once, estimate the printability of parts with their Ultimaker printer, calculate the costs and lead time, and ultimately produce the parts directly with Ultimaker’s Digital Factory.

“The integration of Castor with Ultimaker’s Platform allows users to directly export parts from Castor to the Ultimaker Digital Factory and seamlessly complete the process of 3D printing in-house,” says Miguel Calvo, Ultimaker chief technology officer. “The connectivity saves effort, complexity and time spent switching between tools, streamlining the whole process and bringing it all under one roof. Our cooperation with the Castor team helps organizations unlock the potential of 3D printing in-house with immediate benefit.”

The companies say this integration gives Ultimaker printer users a tool to help find new business cases and discover opportunities to save costs with their existing hardware. “We are proud to have developed the capabilities which allow us to integrate Castor to leading AM companies and workflow software, and we look forward to more collaborations that will help streamline the utilization of 3D printing benefits,” says Omer Blaier, Castor co-founder and CEO.
