3D Systems Unveiled ProJet 4500 3D Printer: Creates Multi-Colored Plastic Items

3D printing has become increasingly popular over the past few years, finding many new applications. Therefore many companies are now coming with new amazing 3D printers. In continuation to that trend, lately a company named 3D Systems has come up with a new 3D printer called ProJet 4500 that can create multi-colored plastic items.

A 3D printer is a materiel printer that can construct 3D objects from 3D modeling data. Unlike other machines that uses subtractive process, this type of machines put successive layers to construct. Using 3D printing, many things can be created like Rubik’s Cube, jaw, shoesfluteedibles from common materials and so on.And now, 3D Systems has brought ProJet 4500 3D Printer.

The ProJet 4500 3D Printer works with a new class of sustainable VisiJet C4 Spectrum materials. The material is able to produce strong, semi-rigid parts. The finished parts have pantone-like colors (“almost one million” colors) and a superior surface finish. The printer also features integrated material recycling to improve total material usage.

According to 3D Systems, the ProJet 4500 3D Printer is “the industry’s only continuous tone full-color plastic 3D printer.” The company has also claimed that this 3D printer is two to five times faster than other plastic 3D printers. It can be operated remotely using an app on a smartphone or tablet, and prints objects up to 8 x 10 x 8 in (203 x 254 x 203 mm) in size, at a resolution of 600 x 600 DPI.

No further details of the 3D Printer like how it works and how much it costs hasn’t been revealed. Here a video of ProJet 4500 sD Printer.
