ETEC D4K

Desktop Production of Small, High-resolution 3D Printed Parts

Full Description
  • Easy‐to‐use desktop production of high‐resolution, professional-quality
    parts with under 2‐minute materials changeover and easy
    job creation.
  • Accuracy down to 25 microns and superior surface finish, all in a
    desktop‐sized package.
  • Highest resolution of any 4K desktop 3D printer on the market.
  • Accessible to all – professional‐grade 3D printing at one‐third the
    operating cost of comparable systems
  • Long material shelf life – uncured resin can be stored and reused
    for months, enabling economic material usage.

ETEC P4K

24/7 Production of Small, Ultra-High Resolution End-Use Parts

Full Description
  • Available in the Pro or Flex
    • The P4K Flex’s one‐size‐fits‐all approach delivers highly accurate, high‐quality parts with one standard build volume and XY resolution. With a highly‐accessible price point, it’s the ideal printer for users with a wide variety of different use cases.
    • The P4K Pro delivers highly accurate, high‐quality parts, and features a range of build sizes and XY resolutions, allowing users to choose the optimal configuration for their specific application.
  • Designed for 24/7 production, offering the ability to run lights‐out, with little to no user intervention required.
  • Easy to use – features intuitive software and under two‐minute material changeover.
  • Automated workflow – automated job queuing and job completion alerts help minimize printer downtime

ETEC Envision One

Rapid Production of Strong, Fully Isotropic End-Use Parts

Full Description
  • High‐speed continuous printing. Finish an entire 3L build volume in just 4.5
    hours – 30% faster than competing systems and 10x faster than desktop
    SLA.
  • Exceptional part strength and quality. Envision One leverages long-chain
    polymer chemistry to produce strong, stable parts. The result is
    isotropic parts suitable for end‐use applications and capable of standing up
    to the most demanding conditions.
  • Enhanced accuracy and resolution. Featuring patented “domeless” printing
    technology, the Envision One eliminates any concerns about how “doming”
    may impact accuracy on the Z-axis. High‐resolution (60 um XY) printing and
    patented pixel tuning technology makes it easy to create fine features and
    smooth surface finishes suitable for end‐use parts.
  • Intuitive software automates support generation and part orientation, while
    an integrated file repair tool patches holes and readies parts for print.

ETEC Xtreme 8K

High-Volume End-Use Part Production

Full Description
  • The largest size production‐grade DLP 3D‐printer in the world — 450 x 371 x 399 mm (17.7 x 14.6 x 15.7 in)
  • 24/7 volume production – print more than 150L of parts per day.
  • Wide material compatibility includes hard plastics, high-temperature plastics, elastomers, rubbers, and silicones. A heated vat allows users to process highly‐viscous and solid materials at room temperatures.
  • Exceptional part strength and quality. Long‐chain polymer chemistry produces strong, stable, fully‐isotropic parts suitable for demanding end‐use applications.
  • Smooth surface finish —Patented, pixel tuning process results in significantly less pixelation and a high‐quality surface finish, with dramatically reduced need for post‐processing.
