                    3D SYSTEMS TO RESCHEDULE CONFERENCE CALL


     VALENCIA, Calif.--March 24, 2003--3D Systems Corp. (Nasdaq: TDSC) 3D
Systems Corp. announced today an update on the status of the audit of its fiscal
year ending December 31, 2002.

     The Company stated that, as of March 24, 2003, the Company's auditors had
not completed their audit, and would be unable to complete this audit until the
Company's Audit Committee had completed its investigation of certain matters,
principally relating to the timing of revenue recognition for transactions that
occurred during 2002.

     In order to meet this requirement, the Company's Audit Committee has
retained the law firm of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, LLP, which has engaged the
accounting firm of BDO Seidman, LLP to review selected sales transactions.
Although there can be no assurances given at this time, the Company seeks to
complete its audit in time to file its Form 10K by April 15, which would be
timely under applicable SEC regulations (including any extensions). Its investor
conference call, which was postponed on February 18, 2003, will be rescheduled
following completion of the 2002 audit.

ABOUT 3D SYSTEMS

     Founded in 1986, 3D Systems, the solid imaging companySM, provides solid
imaging products and solutions that reduce the time and cost of designing
products and facilitate direct and indirect manufacturing. Its systems utilize
patented technologies to create physical objects from digital input that can be
used in design communication, prototyping, and as functional end-use parts.







     3D Systems currently offers the ThermoJet(R) solid object printer, SLA(R)
(stereolithography) systems, SLS(R) (selective laser sintering) systems, and
Accura(R) materials (including photopolymers, metals, nylons, engineering
plastics, and thermoplastics).

     3D Systems is the originator of the advanced digital manufacturing
(ADM(SM)) solution for manufacturing applications. ADM is the utilization of 3D
Systems solid imaging technologies to accelerate production of smaller volumes
of customized/specialized parts. A typical ADM center is expected to contain
multiple 3D Systems' SLA, MJM and/or SLS systems dedicated to full-time
manufacturing applications.

     Product pricing in the U.S. ranges from $49,995, for the ThermoJet printer,
