ZBuilder Ultra: Accurate, High-Resolution Plastic Prototypes

 
ZBuilder rapid prototyping systems create high-end functional prototypes for a fraction of the cost of stereolithography machines. These all-in-one devices build parts additively using a high-resolution Digital Light Processor (DLP) projector to solidify a liquid photopolymer, resulting in durable plastic parts that mimic injection molding for accuracy, material properties, detail, and surface finish. Imaging an entire cross-section at once, the devices build at twice the speed of machines with comparable performance. ZBuilders enable you to verify designs for form, fit and function prior to full-scale production; eliminate costly modifications to production tooling; and ultimately shorten time to market.

How It Works

The ZBuilder Ultra builds 3d parts additively using a high-resolution Digital Light
Processor (DLP) projector to solidify a liquid photopolymer.
