voxeljet unveils its 3D printing system VX4000 – a machine that is
set to cause a stir among international experts. It enables objects to
be produced from particulate material with dimensions of 4 x 2 x 1
metres.
Dr. Ingo Ederer, CEO of voxeljet AG, is delighted with the capabilities
of the new machine. "With our new VX4000
we can generate moulds the size of a sports car, the limit being a
volume of eight cubic metres. This presents users with undreamt-of
possibilities. The enormous build space enables the rapid production of
large individual moulds, but is also flexible enough to allow the
cost-effective production of small batches."
The new system scores high on flexibility and speed. The machine
operates at three times the build speed of voxeljet's standard printers,
but with the same resolution and precision. Users benefit from
significant time and cost savings. The very look of the machine – almost
20 metres long and of high-quality design – sends a signal that this is
a system for tough industrial conditions. The system design with
building platforms that are inserted alternately into the process
station allows for continuous, round-the-clock operation.
"Adding the VX4000 to our range of models expands our product portfolio
of standard and high-definition printers in a logical way. With a range
that extends from the VX500 through
the VX800 to the VX4000, we now cover build space lengths of 500
to 4,000 mm. This means that we have the right system in our portfolio
for virtually any application and any client – from architectural office
to automaker", says Dr. Ederer.
