ColorJet Printing (CJP)

ColorJet Printing involves two major components – core and

binder. The Core™ material is spread in thin layers over the build

platform with a roller. After each layer is spread, color binder is

selectively jetted causing the core to solidify, resulting in a full-color

printed three-dimensional model.

Industrial Assembly Cover

Plastic Jet Printing (PJP)

Plastic Jet Printing is a solid-based rapid prototyping

method that extrudes material, layer-by-layer, to build a model. The

build material, production quality thermoplastic, is melted and then

extruded through a specially designed head onto a platform to create

a two-dimensional cross section of the model. The cross section quickly

solidifies, and the platform descends where the next layer is extruded

upon the previous layer.

• What to Use It For: – Functional testing – Jigs and Fixtures – Layered Production Manufacturing – Focus group and presentation models

• Limitations: – Accuracy: +/-(.005” + .002 in/in) – Layer Thickness: 0.010” – Smallest Feature Size: 0.020” – Build Platform - ABS: 23”x19”x23” (Single Piece Build) – Build Platform - PC: 14”x16”x16” (Single Piece Build) – Finishes: Smooth Gloss and Smooth Matte Finish Available

• When to Expect Delivery: – 3 to 5 days

Industrial Motor Housing

QuickPlastic™ Cast Urethanes

QuickPlastic™ Cast Urethanes are produced by first building an SLA

master pattern that is finished to a pattern level finish. Silicon rubber is

poured over the SLA master pattern to create a mold. Urethane material

is poured into the mold to create the cast urethane.

What to Use It For:

• Form and fit testing

• Field testing

• Focus group and presentation models

• Low Volume Production

Limitations:

• Accuracy: +/-(.005” + .002 in/in)

(Local areas to +/-.001”)

• Smallest Feature Size: >.020”

• Build Platform: Unlimited (Bonded Pattern)

• Tool Life: 50 parts/tool for most materials a n d g e o m e t r y

When to Expect Delivery:

• 6 to 9 Days to First Sample

• 2-4 parts produced per day following sample approval

Rotating Camera Mount

QuickCut™ CNC

QuickCut™ CNC is the process by which material is removed from a

block of material with Computer Numerical Control (CNC) equipment

that cuts away unneeded material.

What to Use It For:


• Low Volume to Medium Volume Production

• Production material required

Limitations:

• Accuracy: +/-.005”

• Geometric limits due to manufacturing process

• Build Platform: 60”x36”x30”


• 5 to 15 Days Oil Pipeline Fitting

Quick Sheet Metal™

Quick Sheet Metal™ prototypes are produced with CNC punching a

blank from sheet stock. The geometry is then formed using custom

tooling. In addition to cuts and bends, the geometry formed can include

gusseting, knurling, embossing, and contouring.

What to Use It For:


• Low Volume to Medium Volume Production

• Production material required

Limitations:

• Accuracy: +/-.005”

• Thickness: .004” to .250”

• Bending accuracy: +/- .004” / bend

• Punching accuracy: +/- .0002”

• Bent Up Part Size: 36”x36”x6”


• 5 to 10 Days
