This article highlights 3D Systems’ launch of the ProJet MJP 2500W Plus, a new 3D printer tailored for the jewelry industry. The technology aims to enhance design capabilities and accelerate production, reinforcing the company’s position in the additive manufacturing market for jewelry.
SEOUL–(NewsWire)–3D Systems, a global leader in additive manufacturing solutions, has introduced a new jewelry-specific 3D printer in South Korea. The ProJet MJP 2500W Plus is designed to reduce design limitations with higher resolution and shorten part lead times with improved casting pattern throughput.
The ProJet MJP 2500W Plus enables the creation of jewelry patterns with fine geometries, featuring accurate, razor-sharp edges and crisp details. It utilizes 100% wax material for 3D printing. The VisiJet wax material can be melted like standard casting wax, containing no ash, to produce flawless casting patterns.
Specifically designed to meet the unique demands of the jewelry industry, the ProJet MJP 2500W Plus can generate high-resolution, 100% wax casting patterns in just hours. A new high-definition printing mode delivers the smoothest pure wax casting patterns in its class, reducing the need for polishing work and consequently decreasing precious metal waste.
Manual polishing can place a significant burden on labor and materials, negatively impacting profitability. To overcome this, the ProJet MJP 2500W Plus 3D printer includes a new HD printing mode that enhances Z-axis resolution by up to 2x without increasing wax material consumption.
Meeting both demand and high-quality conditions requires the ability for rapid design iteration, customization, and mass production. The ProJet MJP 2500W Plus was developed to increase throughput by up to 25% compared to current solutions.
With the printer’s enhanced productivity, customers benefit from shortened part lead times and increased production planning flexibility. Through the ProJet MJP 2500W Plus 3D printer for jewelry casting, VisiJet wax materials, and 3DSprint software—part of 3D Systems’ MultiJet Printing solutions—customers can quickly and consistently produce highly precise, 100% wax casting patterns for large-scale jewelry production.
The global jewelry additive manufacturing market is estimated at over $2 billion and is growing rapidly, driven by productivity, quality, flexibility, and design freedom improvements enabled by additive manufacturing technologies.
With the innovation of 3D Systems’ new ProJet MJP 2500W Plus, featuring enhanced resolution and productivity, customers can deliver outstanding design styles while reducing pattern production time and operational costs, and building a mass customization environment. Furthermore, the stable and repeatable casting of the 100% wax solution allows users to create cost-effective, high-quality casting patterns with high throughput.
