ZPrinter® 450 - Full Colour 3D Printing

ZPrinter 450 3D Rapid Prototype PrinterZPrinter®450 is the world's fastest 3D printer with print speeds of up to 5X faster than other systems, models can be created in hours, not days. Multiple designs can be printed simultaneously to maximise productivity.

ZPrinter®450 is affordable to own and run. Parts can be produced for very low costs and take hours not days to complete. Excess powder is automatically recycled, saving money by eliminating unnecessary waste.

3D models and product prototypes are about communication, and nothing communicates better than colour. Colour dramatically communicates engineering product designs, vividly renders architectural concepts, and even brings animated characters into the real world. With colour printing you can add branding, labels, texture maps, annotations, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or mould flow patterns to your physical prototypes.

The ZPrinter 450 sets the standard for office compatibility with breakthrough innovations that make it ideal for everyday use in a standard office environment. It eliminates nearly all of the hazards, waste, noise, and disposal issues that are associated with typical rapid prototyping systems.
