Case Study: The Realization Group achieves rapid, affordable architectural model production with 3D Systems' ZPrinter 310 Plus

The Realization Group uses Full Color 3D Printing to quickly and affordably realize clients' architectural visions

The Realization Group is a Miami-based multi-dimensional visualization firm that helps architects, engineers and developers bring building concepts to life. Facing tight client deadlines and high costs from traditional laser-cutting and stereolithography, the company needed a faster, more affordable way to produce physical architectural models.

By investing in an in-house ZPrinter 310 Plus, The Realization Group began producing models on demand—delivering work up to four times faster than laser-cutting and at costs as low as one-sixth those of stereolithography. The faster turnaround and lower prices enabled next-day delivery, bulk runs (100 models in two days), broader client access to physical models, and the ability to provide two or three models for the previous price of one.
