Rapid PrototypingObjet 3D Printing Technology

Objet 3D Printer

• Easy to use 3D printing machine designed to operate in office.

• Build platform 340x330x200mm.

• Reproduces very fine detail.

• Materials medically approved.

Eden330

The jetting heads jet layer upon layer a photopolymer resin at 16 micron layers.

Each layer of photopolymer is cured by exposure to UV light

No limitation to complexity, including geometry, overhangs and undercuts.

PolyJet Technology

Geometries: Smooth Surface Finish

• No “step” effect due to 16µm

• Good separation of support layer – including inside cavities

• No hard support grid leftover

• High quality surface for finishing, easy to paintBest Resolution: 16 µm

Files are virtually loaded onto the build tray using the Objet Studio software.

The tray file is sent to the Eden330 for building.

Accurate + smooth surface ◦ No “stair effect”◦ Thin walls ◦ Excellent reproduction of fine details◦ No limitation to complexity

Good Material Properties◦ Good Flexibility: 20% elongation at

break◦ Impact Strength: 25-38 J/m ◦ Enables snap fit tests◦ Range of materials to be available◦ Easy separation of support material

(causing no damage)

cont/… Features

• SHR (Single Head Replacement)– 8 printer heads (no lasers)– Replace one head at a time when necessary– Easy to replace jetting head by customer

• Safe, easy-to-use office environment– Minimal training– Environmentally stable, fully cured materials– Fully sealed cartridges

Handling of materials

2kg sealed cartridges No special environmental

requirements Materials management software Easy cartridge replacement by user Fully cured final models

Compression of lead times◦ Design cycles are shortened and faster turnaround from

design to manufacturing◦ Faster response time from sales + marketing

C4 Model – Why In-house RP?

Cost of error• Visual Communication between departments greatly reduces

chance of error

• Find design error early – r&d stage and not in production

• Earlier = significant cost savings

• ConfidentialityEvery thing is in house

No outsourcing of sensitive material

Silicone mould it◦ Objet prototype parts are

an ideal starting point for silicone tooling. Enabling the production of multiple polyurethane parts.

• Paint it, chrome plate it or Glue it– Due to excellent surface

finish models bond accurately together and when painted can look like the real thing.

Objet Eden is a world leader in using Polymer Jetting technology to create high quality 3D parts.

The only technology to offer a balance of accurate, clean, smooth and detailed prototypes on a user friendly platform.
