In December 2022, we treated ourselves to an early Christmas present that has allowed us to advance our 3D printing capabilities. We invested in the J55 Prime 3D printer from Stratasys which uses PolyJet - a powerful 3D printing technology that produces smooth, accurate parts, prototypes and tooling.

THE POLYJET 3D PRINTER

The PolyJet 3D printer jets layers of curable liquid photopolymer onto a build tray creating exceptional detail, surface smoothness and precision. It also reaches accuracies down to 0.014 mm! 

The J55 Prime 3D printer uses PolyJet technology and also has its own unique properties which make it the perfect solution for your manufacturing needs.

About the J55 Prime printer:

  • It can produce high resolution, fast prints, without compromising quality
  • It has multimaterial capabilities, load up to five materials at once and create multi-colour or multi shore level parts in one print
  • It provides vibrant colour finishes, saving hours of time by removing the need for hand-painting techniques
  • It’s ultra-quiet, operating under 53 decibels.
  • It’s smell free, using a ProAero™ Air Extractor to capture and filter out fumes

WHAT CAN IT BE USED FOR?

The exceptional technology that the PolyJet 3D printer uses has a wide range of applications which benefit a number of different industries such as aerospace, automotive, art and design, medical, dental, consumer goods, education and rail.

The printer can produce a variety of complex, effective parts including but not limited to:

  • Jigs and fixtures
  • Composite tooling
  • Models
  • Rapid prototyping
  • Production parts
