What material is PolyJet?

photopolymer
Bio-compatible PolyJet photopolymer (MED610) is a rigid medical rapid prototyping material. It features high dimensional stability and colorless transparency. The material is ideal for applications requiring prolonged skin contact of more than 30 days and short-term mucosal-membrane contact of up to 24 hours.

Below are the technical specifications for the Stratasys J55. The system is priced around $99,000 and available to order now. The first batch of machines is expected to ship in July of 2020.

What is Fortus?

The Fortus 450mc is the ideal on-demand solution for cost-effective manufacture of low-volume and bridge-to-production parts. Tool-less 3D printing means parts can be produced much faster and for lower cost, bypassing the traditional supply chain.

How much does a PolyJet 3D printer cost?

Unlike FDM 3D printers, PolyJet is mostly an industrial solution. PolyJet 3D printers start at around $6,000, and can cost up to $75,000 for the higher spec models. This, coupled with material costs, makes Material Jetting an expensive 3D printing technology. Well-known 3D printers include those made by Objet Geometries.

What’s the difference between PolyJet and material jetting?

Both PolyJet and Material Jetting are the same technology. PolyJet is the name patented by Objet Geometries back in the late 1990s, whereas Material Jetting is the technical name for the process.

What’s the difference between SLA and PolyJet 3D printing?

Since PolyJet uses photopolymers like SLA, so it could be said that the two processes are similar. SLA 3D printers however use vat polymerization technologies with far more heat than PolyJet, which uses lower temperatures (30-60C). PolyJet / Material Jetting vs FDM

What’s the difference between FDM and PolyJet 3D printing?

A key difference is that parts created with PolyJet are noticeable less strong than those created by an FDM 3D printer. They lose strength over time, whilst FDM parts keep their strength and form. Material Jetting is however much faster, offers better material and color options, and is more scalable.
