Stratasys Sells More Razors -- and Blades

When it comes to 3D printing systems, "razors" and "blades" are the name of the game. Like the famous Gillette business model, the idea is to first sell a lot of 3D printers (the razors), and create a large installed base of machines. Reporting earnings for its first fiscal quarter 2022 Monday evening, Stratasys boasted that its 22% sales growth rate resulted in its "highest first quarter revenue in six years."
