PolyJet 3D Printing
PolyJet 3D printing is an excellent technology for quickly manufacturing high-resolution products in a range of colors with glossy or matte finishes. Plastics printed with PolyJet have a smooth, high-quality finish. As a result, PolyJet prototypes and models are very useful for approximating final products with intricate details and delicate features. Because they are made from real thermoplastics, PolyJet parts can be either hard or rubbery.
3D printed plastics are strong, inexpensive and quick to produce. They also eliminate many of the design restrictions of traditional manufacturing. To learn more about our other plastic 3D printing options, check out our HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing services or our 5-Minute Buyer’s Guide.
