3D Printing – Polyjet – Additive Technologies (Rapid Prototyping)
March 6th, 2012 | 
Author:
This is Episode 1 of a series of video blogs on Additive Technologies (also known as Rapid Prototyping). Today we’re looking at the Multi-Material Polyjet machines which can mix both rigid and soft materials together on the fly to grow parts that simulate over-molding and other complex applications. This process is great for small to medium sized parts (it’s not always cost effective for large parts) and is often used for a variety of prototyping applications (the material is not usually suited for end-use applications), creating a direct tool for a silicone mold, and investment casting.

Amazing ! Didnt know things like this existed
just dont talk about PMS!
Where are the specs?
simply ammmmmmmmmmmmmmmazing.
Great video
@ducatiist Unfortunately this specific machine cannot grow wax yet. I’ll let you know if the manufacturer releases a wax material. Also, though, I know some companies are attempting to melt this material out, and I think they might be having success. If I find out more I’ll let you know. Meanwhile, there are additive machines that actually build with metal. To learn more about those machines, visit my third video on metals.
Can this thing “grow” wax for casting metal?
Awesome…
Amazing technology
HAH. You think I don’t know how much a 1-year liscense costs for one computer? I’m not stupid.
Inventor may have a few flaws that they need to work out, but its 100% more user-friendly than Solidworks, and it (now) comes with more features. Especially now that you can import Inventor files into Maya, which makes it easier to make presentations, movies, etc… I have a video coming soon, with stuff I imported into Maya, and its 1000 times better looking than Solidworks renders.
@PowerSports420 wait till you hit the real world when you get to pay thousands….
What? I don’t like your sarcasm. I have used both programs, and Inventor reigns supreme! Plus, they allow students to download and try their programs for free, while Solidworks is greedy and makes students pay hundreds of dollars… Luckily my school has both on its lab computers…
@PowerSports420 That’s not a biased response….
So this machine can print working parts that you can use as soon as it is finished printing? and when are the other videos coming? and do you guys have a website ?
This is great. It appears that rapid prototyping has made a great deal of progress in the last six years (during this time, I have been under a rock). I look forward to the future episodes.
I really like how you integrated information about your sponsor. Excellent job.
wow just wow
wow..
I didn’t care for the music over the talking. You should be confident enough to not need the music as a crutch. It was very distracting after the first loop, not to mention after the 500th loop through.
Other than that, great video, and an interesting technology.
Wow this is impressive!!!
Wow, this technology is great!!! Its too bad your using solidworks, lol, that cellphone mockup could have looked a lot better if you had used Inventor. In fact, the new 2011 version they just released fixes every one of the old flaws in the program. Other than that, the parts all looked acceptable. Try out Inventor, and you’ll see the difference right away!!!
keep going man ! very nice video i like it !
Very informative Mr. Michael Neil. Do you have a black eye btw?
