Rapid Prototyping Leader Quickparts Offers New Accura(R) Bluestone Material for Rapid Prototyping

ATLANTA, GA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Mar 17, 2010 -- Quickparts ( http://www.quickparts.com), one of North America's largest providers of custom designed parts, ranging from rapid prototyping to plastic injection molding, today announced the availability of Bluestone, a high-performance stereolithography material for rapid prototyping.

Bluestone is an accurate, strong, high temperature material that can be used across many industries for nearly any digital manufacturing project, including functional prototypes, jigs & fixtures, and low volume production runs that utilize the Stereolithography (SLA) process.

"It has been and continues to be our commitment to offer the latest materials, innovation and technology available to the product development community," said Patrick Hunter, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Quickparts. "The addition of Bluestone to our already extensive line of materials allows us to continue our mission of making it easy for our customers to get custom designed parts that meet their needs."

Accura Bluestone material is widely used for wind-tunnel testing for the aerospace and motorsports industries and has proven to be successful for electric / electrical components, microwave applications, pump and valve parts, and marine and automotive manufacturers.

In addition to its outstanding mechanical properties, the material also has a high strength to weight ratio, high temperature deflection, and is durable enough to handle some flexing.
