POLYJET EXPLAINED
PolyJet (often referred to as Objet) printing is an additive manufacturing process which uses two or more jetting heads (one for the model material and one for support material) to deposit the outline of the desired part. Like other 3D printing methods, these are extruded, layer by layer, onto the build plate.
The liquids used by the printer are photo-polymer resins which are cured by a UV lamp within the machine. The process creates a solid, plastic-like model, exhibiting extreme dimensional accuracy and highly detailed features.
Support material is required when printing complex shapes, or a structure with an overhang. This material, when cured, is a gel-like substance that is washed off after printing.
Finished PolyJet models have an incredibly smooth finish and can be readily painted, drilled or tapped.
