After the onslaught of releases made by 3D Systems at Euromold at the end of last year and CES at the beginning of this year, there’s likely to be a great deal of anticipation about when their new 3D printers will finally start shipping. The first of their newly manufactured additive manufacturers to begin shipping is the ProJet 1200 Micro-SLA 3D Printer.
The ProJet 1200 is a small SLA machine developed to produce small, but highly detailed objects suitable for casting and creating jewelry, electronic components, and dental wax-ups. With a build volume of 43 x 27 x 180mm (1.69 x 1.06 x 7.08 inches) and the ability to “print up to 12 precise dental wax ups in under an hour and [create] 5 intricate rings in under 2 hours“, the 3DS’ press release describes it as “smaller than most coffee makers and faster than baking a cake.”
The ProJet 1200 prints 30 micron layers with a resolution of 585 dpi and is priced at $4,900. The machine is also outfitted with LAN and USB connectivity, features all-in-one material cartridges, and has a built-in UV curing station for the safe handling of parts. The use of VisiJet FTX Green material for casting patterns makes for an ash-free burn-out for plastic prototypes and the design of small collectibles. Altogether, the Micro-SLA 3D printer is ideal for jewelers, dental labs, product designers and the like.…
