What is PolyJet 3D Printing?
PolyJet is one of the most versatile 3D printing solutions available, capable of producing parts with incredible precision and speed in a wide range of material properties. Parts are created by jetting microscopic thin layers of liquid photopolymer onto a build tray. PolyJet is the only print technology that allows you to create parts in multiple materials including soft rubber-like, rigid, clear and opaque surfaces all in one build.
Manufacture parts using PolyJet 3D Printing Services when you need to prototype rubber-like parts, over molds, soft touch parts or assemblies requiring multiple material properties or colors.

Digital Materials
Multi-Material 3D Printing
PolyJet technology is best known for is ability to 3D print multiple materials in a single build to create overmolds, soft touch parts & living hinges. Forge Labs prints using Connex3 technology which allows the blend of 3 unique materials: RGD450 Rigid White, Agilus 30 & VeroClear.
Rigid materials can be combined with Agilus 30 to create custom shore values between A30 - A95. Custom material hardness options are found below:
Agilus30 | Shore A30 |

Design Guidelines | PolyJet 3D Printing
PolyJet Matrix Technology is an resin based 3D printing technology that deposits ultra fine droplets of resin on a build platform through multiple different inkjet-like print heads. These materials are cured using a UV light that solidifies each layer in 16 micron layers. The technology is similar to inkjet printing and allows materials to be combined together to create a number of different combinations of different shore hardness's and properties in a single build.
This design guidelines covers specific design parameters, which will need to be followed to prevent build failures from occurring. Minimum tolerances specified by our engineers ensure that your part build successfully and to the highest quality possible. Parts that do not adhere to these design guidelines may not resolve correctly, or be overly fragile when handled.
Optimizing your design for PolyJet Matrix Technology will also help keep 3D printing costs down. Price is primarily based upon the volume of material consumed to manufacture your part. Small, thin walled parts are priced the most competitively in this technology. However, since the technology uses a support structure, hollow cavities and internal voids will be fill with support which has a significant cost associated with it in this technology. Therefore, optimizing your designs to reduce overhangs can significantly reduce the cost of 3D Printing in PolyJet.
Forge Labs' PolyJet machines have a building volume of: 490 x 390 x 200 mm (19.3 x 15.35 x 7.9), a standard layer thickness of 28um.
Multi-Material 3D Prints require a multi-body STEP file to manufacture from.

Case Studies | PolyJet Matrix

Parts printed with PolyJet have a smooth surface right out of the printer. With only little sanding, they are ready to accept off-the-shelf acrylic paints and lacquers.

International Submarine Engineering needed to produce a mold for an antenna, which would traditionally be produced out of aluminum using CNC.

3D printing bone scans were used to show the effects of low gravity on bone density for a exhibit at the Canadian Aviation and Space Museum.
