Figure 4 135

When you need to supplement or replace injection mold tooling in the plastic manufacturing process, Figure 4 135 offers faster, more flexible and cost-efficient production for both prototyping and low-to-mid volume end-use parts.

By directly manufacturing small plastic end-use parts, the solution eliminates weeks to months of mold tool lead times, reducing your time-to-market from weeks to days.

Engineers can rapidly prototype and adjust designs on the fly without retooling. The solution allows companies to manufacture to the highest levels of precision and repeatability, whether prototypes, small batches, custom parts, bridge production and on-demand replacement parts. And all without the overhead of tool costs or inventory management.  

The Figure 4 135 is designed to operate with the Figure 4 range of engineering and production-grade resins delivering printed parts with an injection-molded like quality and best-in-class smoothness.

Choose from our ever-expanding range of rigid, tough, durable with thermoplastic-like behaviors, castable, heat-resistant, and biocompatible capable materials in a range of colors and translucencies. Printed parts exhibit long-term UV and humidity stable mechanical properties; up to 8 years for indoor use and up to 1.5 years for outdoor exposure per ASTM D4329 and ASTM G194 methods.

Figure 4 135 produces exceptional part quality and accuracy, a direct result of our trade secret pixel blending methods combined with precision projectors and innovative hardware configuration.

In order to guarantee  best-in-class part quality, all our materials, print processes, image processing software, and printer hardware, are developed from +15yrs of 3D Systems' print process experience with pixels, ensuring seamless integration.

3D Systems' image processing software automatically adjusts the pixel edges with gray scaling techniques. This results in high-quality production-grade plastic parts with best-in-class surface quality.
