Product Description
Chuck Hull – Father of the 3D printing industry | 3D Systems was founded in Valencia, California (USA) by Chuck Hull – President – Founder – The person who laid the foundation for the world’s first SLA 3D printer production technology since the 80s of the century. ago. He is the holder of over 30 exclusive patents on 3D printing technology. He was nominated for the “European Inventor” award and is a pioneer in the field of 3D printing – one of the fields creating the 4th Industrial Revolution – the Digital World Revolution. |
3D Systems is still the leader in the world market for 3D printers, with about 1,000 workers and listed on the NASDAQ technology stock market. Hull’s idea of entering the third dimension with a printing press was imitated by many people. Today, in the 3D printing market, there are thousands of companies participating, offering nearly identical 3D printing equipment. Wohlers Associates estimates that the industry’s revenue in the world market in 2012 will be about 2 billion USD, will increase to 3 billion in 2016, and reach 10 billion in 2024. Of which 3D SYSTEMS accounts for 70% of the market share. and growing steadily every year from 40 to 50%, affirming the position of “Father” leading the 3D printing industry worldwide.

2. SLA – Stereolithography
This is the first 3D printing technology in the world, researched and developed by Chuck Hull in 1980. Up to now, this technology has developed to the pinnacle of solution printing with precision levels up to (+/ – 45 μm) affirms the power and importance of SLA technology in the field of 3D printing. | Finger 4 solution (SLA) 3D printer |
(SLA) Projet 6000 / 7000HD | (SLA) ProX 800 / 950 | (SLA) PRJ 1200 |
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION | FEATURES | MATERIALS | APPLICATIONS |
– Liquid Resin material dipped into the solution tray. SLA uses a light source that passes through a mirror that cures each printed layer using UV light. SLA printing layer can reach from 0.06, 0.08, 0.1,… mm. – For 3D printing technologies using plastic materials, this is the technology that creates 3D printed products with the most beautiful surfaces, can be used immediately, and has high resolution. | – Vertical (cylindrical) printing technology. Prints 4x faster than the competition (Same technology) – 2.5 times more resolution than competitors (Same technology) – Smooth surface, precision level (+/- 45 μm) | – Plastic can withstand high temperatures – Plastic has ingredients for jewelry and jewellery. – Plastic for dentistry – Heat resistant plastic – White, black, gray ABS-like plastic instead of being processed on CNC machines. Flexible polyproplene plastic for molding (PP). – Transparent plastic | – Molds for vacuum casting – Molded metal molded shell – Complex detailed clusters – Wind tunnel model – Production of drilling rigs for testing – Orthopedic dentistry – Assembly equipment |
3. MJP – Multijet Printing ( Polyjet)
- Unlike other 3D printers with the same technology on the market, MJP’s post-print support layer can self-melt in the thermal solution. This is especially important when you’re printing difficult parts: thin edges, parts with many interlocking or obscured slots.
- The printed material has mechanical properties 90%-98% similar to the original material, helping the product not deform or warp after use. MJP technology can now print the widest range of materials of any 3D printer.
- Printing speed is 2 times faster, – Post-print processing time is 4 times faster than similar technology 3D printers

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION | FEATURES | MATERIALS | APPLICATIONS |
---|---|---|---|
MJP technology uses UV rays to sinter liquid material sprayed by more than 1000 fine micro nozzles. The wax support layer fills the gaps of the material to create a solid, solid block. DMP is divided into 2 lines: Direct Metal Printing (multi-material) and Direct Metal Printing Wax (for direct casting) | – MJP uses a waxy support layer. After printing, the wax layer will automatically melt in the solution without the need for pressure spraying or manual prying. So any thin edges or complex profiles can be printed perfectly. The printed material has mechanical properties 95 – 100% similar to the original material. No deformation or warping after long periods of use | Rubber, wax, transparent plastic, hard plastic, soft plastic, elastic plastic, heat-resistant plastic, load-bearing plastic, synthetic plastic… Some MJP 3d printer lines can mix different types of materials on the same product. | – Design and manufacture new products R&D Test samples Create 3D printed models from wax for direct metal mold casting: Jewelry, Dentistry, Maxillofacial Molds: Blow molds, casting molds, sand molds, plastic molds… |
