Toyota and Rivian Adopt Stratasys' New F870™ to Accelerate Factory-Floor Manufacturing Applications at Scale

MINNETONKA, Minn. & REHOVOT, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 9, 2026--

Stratasys Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSYS) announced the launch of the new F870™ FDM® system, a large-format additive manufacturing platform designed for industrial manufacturers, automotive OEMs, aerospace & defense production lines, looking to scale production on the factory floor.

Extending the Stratasys production-grade FDM portfolio, the F870 combines unrivaled large-format capabilities in a heated chamber backed by a suite of the strongest, most durable materials, all with a lower total cost of ownership so manufacturers can expand additive across manufacturing applications. Manufacturers increasingly demand larger, production-ready systems capable of producing tooling, fixtures, manufacturing aids and end-use parts at the size, throughput, and reliability needed for factory-floor deployment. The F870™ FDM® machine addresses this need.

Systems are currently being adopted by leading manufacturers, including Toyota Production Engineering in Georgetown, Kentucky, and Rivian Automotive in Plymouth, Michigan. These organizations are assessing the platform across a range of applications, from factory-floor tooling and manufacturing aids to advanced prototyping workflows, ahead of commercial availability.

Early deployments address customer needs for automotive tooling, manufacturing aids, and other production-support applications, including large fixtures, assembly tools, and inspection gauges that traditionally require lengthy machining lead times.

"Manufacturers are looking for proven solutions to speed up production, reduce cost, and respond in real-time to ever-changing supply chain and manufacturing requirements," said Rich Garrity, Chief Business Unit Officer, Stratasys. "The F870 is a very unique solution, demonstrating our advanced manufacturing expertise and our deep understanding of customer demand for additive manufacturing solutions that produce larger tooling, fixtures, and manufacturing aids on the factory floor. The new platform is geared towards real manufacturing environments, delivering our leading industrial-scale capabilities with increased build capacity, combined with Stratasys’ proven materials, and production reliability at a competitive price-point."

"We've already seen the value Stratasys additive manufacturing can deliver," said Dallas Martin, Additive Manufacturing Engineer at Toyota North America. "The next challenge is expanding its use across more applications. The F870's combination of build size, material performance and industrial features aligns with the kinds of manufacturing needs we're looking to address."

Designed for production-support applications, the F870 features a build volume of 1000 x 610 x 610 mm (39.4 x 24 x 24 in.) and combines the market's longest build capacity in a fully heated chamber with a portfolio of industrial-grade materials, including Nylon 12CF™, ASA, ABS and the new FDM® ABS Draft (Gray). In particular, Nylon 12CF Carbon Fiber provides the strength, stiffness and durability required for demanding manufacturing-floor tooling and fixture applications. The platform enables manufacturers to produce larger tooling, fixtures, manufacturing aids and end-use parts with the repeatability, durability and throughput required for factory-floor deployment.

Built on Stratasys' industrial FDM® foundation, the F870 expands Stratasys's portfolio of production-focused additive manufacturing solutions, helping manufacturers reduce production costs, improve responsiveness and scale additive manufacturing across manufacturing operations.

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — President Volodymyr Zelenskyy chided the international community Wednesday for not taking a tougher stance against Russia over its escalating bombardment of civilian areas of Ukraine.

At the end of August, Russia launched a week of nighttime and daylight attacks on Kyiv in its heaviest sustained bombardment of the Ukrainian capital since its full-scale invasion began more than four years ago. The relentless missile and drone strikes have continued this month and aim to sap civilian morale, Ukrainian officials say.

International economic sanctions on Russia and efforts to isolate Moscow diplomatically haven’t stopped the invasion. Zelenskyy urged countries to step up the pressure.

“Unfortunately, there has been too little response from the international community to these strikes, which are taking people’s lives practically every day,” he said on social media.

“But a response is needed — Moscow must not go into the winter believing that it can get away with missile and drone terror without consequences,” he said.

The United Nations said last month that increasing Russian aerial attacks killed or wounded more Ukrainian civilians in July than in any month since March 2022, with 437 killed and more than 2,600 wounded.

In all, more than 16,800 Ukrainian civilians have been killed and more than 51,000 wounded since the Russian invasion, according to the U.N. Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine.

The U.S. has renewed its push to end the fighting, sending special envoys over the weekend to Kyiv and Moscow, although Washington’s efforts haven’t yet delivered any substantial progress. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said late Tuesday that the Ukraine-Russia talks were “substantive” but much remains to be done.

Russia's aerial attacks overnight into Wednesday killed at least two people and wounded seven, Ukrainian officials said, as Moscow fired ballistic and cruise missiles as well as drones at six regions.

Four of the wounded were in a 22-story residential building in Kyiv’s Darnytskyi district, where a drone damaged the 11th floor and started a fire on the 12th floor, Ukraine’s State Emergency Service said.

Olha Smal, 62, who lives on the 12th floor, said the blast wave flung her across her kitchen. One of her bedrooms caught fire, and smoke quickly filled the apartment, she said. Her pregnant neighbor was wounded.

“You live one day at a time. You don’t know what will happen to you tomorrow, or even what will happen today,” she told The Associated Press. “It’s very, very hard.”

Russia’s Defense Ministry said that its forces hit a drone factory warehouse in Kyiv.

It also claimed strikes on fuel reservoirs and an electric substation in the port city of Mykolaiv in southern Ukraine.

The Russian military also struck a ship heading to Odesa with military cargo and logistical facilities at Ukraine’s Starokozache border crossing with Moldova, the ministry said. The border strike killed two people, Ukrainian authorities said.

Zelenskyy said Ukraine is responding to Moscow’s strikes with daily long-range attacks on infrastructure deep inside Russia.

He said the latest Ukrainian strikes targeted Novorossiysk, a Black Sea port in Russia’s Krasnodar region. The attack hit a naval base, including a terminal used to load oil, military port facilities, and warships carrying cruise missiles, according to Zelenskyy.

The Novorossiysk naval base is a key hub for Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, providing maintenance and logistical support for its ships, according to Ukraine’s General Staff.

Krasnodar Gov. Veniamin Kondratyev said that four people, including a child, were killed and 29 others were wounded in the drone attack on Novorossiysk.

Russia’s Defense Ministry said that air defenses downed 596 Ukrainian drones from late Tuesday until early Wednesday.
