XJet Carmel 1400C – Ultimate Ceramic AM system
Ceramic 3D Printer
Technology
XJet’s NanoParticle Jetting™ (NPJ) technology is redefining the ceramic and metal additive manufacturing (AM) arenas. The patented powderless material-jetting technology enables the production of ceramic or metal AM parts of the highest quality – featuring unprecedented levels of detailing, finish and accuracy – without compromising throughput or build time. With unrestricted support material planning, fabrication and removal, designers can focus on a part’s functionality rather than its manufacturability. NPJ delivers on the AM promise of “zero-cost” geometrical complexity.
Three Layers of NPJ Innovation
NPJ uniquely features stochastic nanoparticles, ultrathin layers and simultaneous jetting of build and support materials. Leveraging these three attributes, NPJ empowers the creation of “complexity-free” high-quality parts with superb properties and virtually unlimited geometries in an operationally efficient manner.
Carmel 1400C Ceramic 3D Printer
The XJet Carmel 1400C is the industry’s ultimate ceramic AM system for applications requiring high productivity, superior quality and geometric complexity. Already installed and operating at customer sites, the Carmel 1400C is empowering manufacturers to produce parts of geometric design never before possible.
Our state-of-the-art Carmel 1400C system is highly suitable for a wide range of creative ceramic AM applications in diverse industries. Featuring a 1,400 cm² (217 in²) build tray – one of the industry’s largest – the Carmel 1400C enables the simultaneous production of multiple ceramic parts.
Our Carmel 1400C leverages XJet’s revolutionary NanoParticle Jetting™ (NPJ) technology. This patented inkjet technology enables the production of ceramic AM parts of the highest quality – featuring unprecedented levels of detailing, finish and accuracy – without compromising throughput or build time.
How Carmel 1400C Ceramic 3D Printer Works?
Process:
Solid nanoparticles in a liquid suspension are delivered within convenient sealed cartridges.
Advantage:
Build and support material cartridges are loaded quickly & easily by hand, eliminating the need for hard-to-handle hazardous powders.
Process:
Printheads with thousands of inkjet nozzles simultaneously jet millions of ultrafine drops of both build and support materials onto the system build tray in ultrathin layers.
Advantage:
Liquid dispersion of solid nanoparticles in ultrathin layers enables the production of parts with virtually unlimited geometrical complexity and unrivaled quality in a highly efficient manner.
Process:
After the part is manufactured, the support structure, made from special support material, disintegrates easily from the finished part.
Advantage:
Support materials are removed simply without harming the part, greatly reducing the need for time-consuming and delicate post-processing.
Process:
Produced parts undergo a simple and relatively short overnight sintering process.
Advantage:
Easy and clean process enables smooth integration into existing operations, and short and simple post-processing.
