CERAMIC FULL-COLOUR 3D PRINTING
DESCRIPTION, INNOVATION AND ADVANTAGES
ColorJet Printing (CJP) is an additive manufacturing technology and it is an incomparable solution for full-colour concept model fabrication. The CJP ProJet 660Pro, using the ColorJet Printing technology, is a full-colour ceramic 3D printer for professional use. It can print to a resolution of 600×540 dpi and has a build size of 254x381x203 mm3. The printing speed is up to 28 mm3/h, and the minimum layer thickness is 0.1 mm. Using its 1520 jets and 5 print heads and the high-performance VisiJet PXL core and bonding materials, this 3D printer can create photo-realistic and precise colour models. It is used for ceramic and composite material research, production of highly complex geometry models and later aero and thermodynamic testing. Investigation of electroless catalytic copper plating on ceramic 3D surfaces has been performed and results have shown that the surface of objects manufactured using the ProJet 660Pro machine can be altered by successfully applying metal plating.
