Issues with Stratasys PC-ISO for classic Fortus machines

One of our maintenance and materials customers reached out to solve a problem with the PC-ISO from Stratasys. Argyle doesn't sell PC-ISO, it is too niche a product. Since PC-ISO is a niche product new Stratasys OEM PC-ISO canisters for Fortus 400mc are in fact old inventory and suffering from moistures issues. 

We suggested the customer order PC-ISO in Plus canisters meant for a Fortus 450mc: fresher inventory. Upon receipt customer removes the black Plus chip and removes the offset from center plastic tab or tang that the chip slots into. We supply the customer with a classic PS-ISO eeprom and with the tang removed it screws into place. The canister works in either system and with the eeprom chip changed the dry PC-ISO from fresh inventory runs on a classic Fortus 400mc. 

Customer sends us the recovered Plus chips and everybody wins, even Stratasys because they keep selling PC-ISO to help turn over their inventory and customer gets the parts they need in material of choice on a reliable T Class Fortus 400mc expertly maintained by our sister company Pivot AM Service.
