Statasys has launched the Object30 Dental Prime compact 3D printer.
The printer is designed to enable smaller dental labs to produce a wide range of dental and orthodontic appliances in-house. It comes with three PolyJet 3D printing materials:
- VeroDentPlus (MED690), a dark-beige material that is strong and durable for intricate models
- Clear Bio-compatible (MED610), a material for temporary in-mouth placement
- VeroGlaze (MED620), an opaque, biocompatible material with A2 shading that is designed for accurate color matching
The printer comes in two modes: high quality and high speed. The high-quality mode 3D prints models with intricate features and is ideal for fabricating precise fittings on crowns and bridges. The high-speed mode 3D works for orthodontic models and surgical guides.
"The introduction of the ... Object30 Dental Prime 3D printer continues Stratasys' commitment to providing a variety of solutions to meet the different needs of dental and orthodontic labs, small and large," stated Steffen Mueller, general manager of dental solutions at Stratasys, in a press release.
