High-Definition 3D Printer performs in-office model making.September 18, 2008 -
Designed for on-site, on-demand fabrication, ProJet(TM) SD 3000 utilizes Multi-Jet Modeling (MJM) technology to produce parts with smooth surfaces and small feature detail. Single-pass printhead design optimizes production speed for larger footprint parts or full platform builds of smaller parts. Fully cured plastic parts from printer are immediately safe for handling, and MJM hands-free support material facilitates removal for even delicate part features.
