Compact Objet260 Connex 3D printer jets 2 materials simultaneously

Over the past years, Objet Geometries has been successfully launching 3-dimensional printing systems for manufacturers and industrial designers. These printing systems appear as a vital means to pull down the cost of production and also reduce time-to-market of new products. In line with this, the company has now doffed the silks off the all new compact office friendly 3D printer that can release 2 materials at the same time, hence allowing advanced composite materials to be created in one part within a single print run.

Objet's Compact Objet260 Connex 3D Printer

The newly introduced printer is specially crafted to empower designers and engineers for developing prototypes that will further resemble the end-product. Well, this offering by Objet provides its users around 60 different build materials to choose from for creating approximately 14 different materials in a single model part. Crafted with a futuristic approach, the stylish Compact Objet260 Connex 3D Printer generates a video demonstration too.

If we look at the layers created by this power-packed printer, they are 16-micron with a tray size of 260 x 260 x 200 mm. Additionally, the printer incorporates small, quiet and uses easy to insert materials which are fully-sealed in REACH compliant cartridges. With this multi-material 3D printer users can choose from a wide range of textures and shades. The system also offers a good range of mechanical properties to adopt. Its unique and innovative features help simulate anything from rubber to transparency and even rigid engineering plastics. Available through the Objet website, this exquisite piece of technology is certainly a cost-effective solution for many manufacturers and industrial designers.
