3D Systems has named manufacturing CEO veteran Dr. Jeffrey A. Graves as the new President and CEO. He replaces Vyomesh Joshi, who announced his retirement in February.
Graves joins 3D Systems from MTS Systems, a global supplier of high-performance test, simulation and measurement systems, where he served as CEO for the past eight years, deploying a focused business strategy and streamlined operating model.
“Jeff’s financial and operational discipline and precision is a core reason we chose him for this role,” said Charles McClure, chairman of the Board of Directors. “He has shown that he knows how to organize and focus a business portfolio and streamline an operating model to deliver differentiated solutions to markets.”
Prior to MTS, Graves was CEO of C&D Technologies, a global provider of energy storage products for seven years, and served as CEO of KEMET Electronics, a manufacturer of high-performance capacitor solutions, for three years. He currently serves on the board of directors of Hexcel, a leading global manufacturer of advanced composite materials, and Faro, a company that develops and manufactures solutions that enable high-precision 3D capture, measurement and analysis across a variety of industries.
