Yesterday I wrote about the new Mcor software called ColourIT, which makes it possible to apply colour to your print objects in very high detail. Today I came across a press release of 3D Systems in which the announce their next generation full colour 3D printers. There’s obviously something going on here.
3D Systems announced that as of yesterday their new ProJet X60 series is available. This series of printers is (as 3D Systems claims) able to print 90% of the colors available in Adobe Photoshop using VisiJetPXL materials (their new premium composite).
The new ProJet line is build on the already proven ZPrinter platform that came from the old ZCorp and was the first full colour 3D printer line available.
The six available models are:
-
ProJet 160 – compact size, most affordable monochrome printing
-
ProJet 260C– compact size, most affordable full color 3D printer available
-
ProJet 360 – medium size, monochrome printing affordability
-
ProJet 460Plus – medium size, high-quality full color printing
-
