The PolyJet™ 3D Printing Technology Process

Objet’s patented PolyJet™ inkjet technology works by jetting state of the art photopolymer materials in ultra-thin layers (16µ) onto a build tray layer by layer until the part is completed. The process is managed by the intuitive Objet studio™ software.

Each photopolymer layer is cured by UV light immediately after it is jetted, producing fully cured models that can be handled and used immediately, without post-curing. The gel-like support material, which is specially designed to support complicated geometries, is easily removed by hand and water jetting.

PolyJet™ 3D Printing Technology Advantages

High quality: Market-leading resolution of 16µ ensures smooth, accurate and highly detailed parts and models.

Fast: The rapid PolyJet™ Technology process allows high-speed raster build at full width, simultaneous building of multiple items, and no post-curing.

Highly accurate: Precise jetting and build material properties enable fine details and thin walls (600µ or less depending on geometry and materials).

Versatile: The wide variety of FullCure materials enables parts with different geometries, mechanical properties, and colors. The use of the same support material for all model types makes switching materials easy and fast.

Clean: Objet 3D Printers are suitable for office environments, with non-touch resin loading/unloading, easy support removal, and easy replacement of jetting heads
