With the Objet Eden260VS and particularly when the printing is done in-house, it enables the design teams to quickly produce a high-quality, realistic prototype with moving parts at relatively low cost.

This is when the printer is compared to other methods such as machining or outsourcing. Overall, the design teams can use prototyping on projects where it wasn’t feasible in the past due to time or cost considerations.

And this is not just a feature of this printer but an overall achievement of 3D printing technology as a whole.

Quickly create Product Mockups

This printer can quickly produce real working prototypes that design teams can see and touch. The nature of the printer helps bridge the gap between the virtual CAD design and seeing the final product.

When design and manufacturing engineers cannot only use these prototypes as a tool to better communicate how a design looks, but also feels, and operates.

Doing this allows for the product design to integrate with manufacturing at an earlier stage in the development lifecycle and avoid all the flaws that can be otherwise made.

Printing Type/Cost

PolyJet 3D Printing is that 3D printing technology which is famous for creating smooth surfaces, fine precision using diverse material properties in parts and functional properties.

It works similar to inkjet document printing, the primary difference is instead of jetting drops of ink onto paper.

The print head sprays or jets the microscopic layers of liquid photopolymer onto a build tray and instantaneously cures them with UV light.

The fine layers then, build up to create a prototype or production part.

Print Quality

Many websites cite beautiful pictures of a coral, hourglass, nested cubes, interlocking cubes, Klein bottle, statues, made by this printer.

One thing in common between all those photographs is the detailing in design that is done in the parts.

Minute structures which were impossible to 3D print using any other technology are done using Objet Eden 260 VS.

The peculiarity that is brought with Poly Jet technology for 3D printing is hugely used and reflected in the parts and functional prototypes that are manufactured using this printer.
