Today, 3D Systems (NYSE: DDD) introduced the MJP 300W Plus, the latest addition to its portfolio of end-to-end solutions for jewelry manufacturing. The most advanced and versatile of the Company’s 3D wax printers provides jewelers of all sizes with the freedom to tackle a wide variety of manufacturing workflows with greater efficiency and the highest-quality results.
The MJP 300W Plus prints extremely intricate wax patterns, which are used for the casting of precious metal jewelry. 3D printing eliminates the time, costs, and geometric constraints associated with the use of traditional tooling for pattern manufacture.
Its combination of exceptional resolution and dissolvable, meltable supports enables precise surface quality, thus reducing the need for extensive finishing labor and costly polishing of the resulting precious metal castings. When the MJP 300W Plus is used in combination with 3D Systems’ portfolio of VisiJet® 100% wax materials, producers of wax jewelry patterns—from high-volume manufacturers to custom jewelry makers—can achieve new designs, more efficiently and with much greater design freedom. This design freedom comes with lower manufacturing costs due to reduced loss of gold or other precious metals during final polishing.
Integral to the design of the MJP 300W Plus are enhancements to the print modes available in 3D Sprint®.
DDD shares gave up 4.5 cents, or 1.5%, to $2.92.
