Rehovot, Israel – November 29, 2007 –
Objet Geometries Ltd., the world leader in ultra-thin layer
photopolymer jetting, today announced that the international debut of
its Connex500™ 3-D Printing System and PolyJet Matrix™ Technology will
take place at the EuroMold 2007 show in Frankfurt, Germany.
The revolutionary Connex500, which is the first system capable of
printing parts and assemblies made of multiple model materials, all in
a single build, will be demonstrated for the first time, at the Objet
stand (Hall 8.0, Stand H-144).
At its EuroMold booth, Objet will also show its Eden500V™ printing
system which offers the ideal solution for large-size model
requirements and the smallfootprint, cost effective Eden250™ 3-D
printing system. Both systems are based on the patented office-friendly
PolyJet™ technology, for jetting photopolymer materials. A wide range
of models, showcasing the unique properties of the
various FullCure materials, will be on display at the Objet booth,
including the newest addition – TangoPlus, FullCure930. This new
material expands the Tango family of rubber-like materials, offering
exceptional elongation at break, excellent toughness and durability and
high resistance to tearing.
With in-booth demos of three of Objet’s innovative 3-dimensional
printing systems, the Connex500, Eden500V and the Eden250, running
throughout the show, visitors to the Objet booth will have a unique
opportunity to experience the ultimate in 3-D printing.
“The Connex500 opens a new chapter for the 3-D printing and rapid
prototyping industry, and we expect it to generate significant interest
throughout the EuroMold show,” said Adina Shorr, CEO of Objet
Geometries. “As the premier industry show, EuroMold is the perfect
opportunity to enable a wide range of product design and development
professionals to experience the most exciting
industry development in years.”
In addition, Objet will present its new material technology – Durus™.
Durus is a direct result of Objet’s continuing efforts to offer
customers materials for prototyping plastic products requiring
polypropylene-like properties. Durus technology enables simulation of
the toughness (Notched Izod Impact of 40.22 J/m), flexibility
(Elongation at Break of 44.2%), strength (Modulus of Elasticity of 1135
MPa) and resistance to fatigue of polypropylene. Furthermore, parts
made using Durus technology look and feel like final products made of
polypropylene. As well as being on show at the Objet stand, the Eden250
will be displayed in Hall 5.1, at booth B-145. Objet Booth: Hall 8.0
