Polyjet

The polyjet process is one of the most widely used technologies in rapid prototyping. The variety of materials is very large and the combination possibilities of different materials and colors within a single component are almost limitless. Several materials can be processed in the same component at the same time. And over 500,000 colors. This also makes this technology very interesting for design samples.

How Polyjet works

The patented technology is unique on the 3D printer market. Liquid photoreactive plastics are used as the starting material. The print head moves over the build platform layer by layer and the materials are sprayed onto the platform via countless small nozzles and cured directly with UV light. Different materials can be printed simultaneously using different nozzles.

Advantages of Polyjet

PolyJet combines high precision, material variety and attention to detail, making it ideal for rapid prototyping, medical technology and model making. The technology enables multi-color and multi-material prints with smooth surfaces and the finest details – often without post-processing. Thanks to high dimensional accuracy and the ability to print complex geometries, PolyJet is particularly suitable for applications with special requirements. The availability of biocompatible materials extends the range of applications into the dental and surgical fields, where precision and material compatibility are crucial.
