Stratasys Objet500 Connex3 3D Printer Overview

Large Build Envelope

The Objet500 Connex3 has a tray large enough for your prototyping needs. With a tray capable of printing an object measuring 490 x 390 x 200 mm (19.3 x 15.4 x 7.9 in.), users can be confident in efficient, repeatable rapid prototyping results.

Colour Printing

In addition to many material combinations, the Connex3 family allows for colour prototyping. Impress clients, or create life like prototypes that look and feel like the end-use product.

Triple-Jetting Technology

Triple-jetting with a wide range of materials allow you to produce perfect prototypes. Choose limitless material combinations from several available photopolymers that simulate rubber, polypropylene and standard manufacturing plastics.

Hot Swapping

With hot-swapping capabilities, you can easily replace empty cartridges with new ones without interrupting your build, making your workflow as smooth as the parts you are producing.

Vivid Colours, Multiple Materials, Impressive Parts

The Objet500 Connex3 provides unrivaled versatility with a wide range of materials including rubbers, rigid opaques and even transparent materials. To top it off, Connex3 technology allows you to mix in vibrant colours to make parts even more impressive. For specific prints requiring thermal, mechanical or optical properties, the Objet500 Connex3 allows you to combine up to three base resins to produce up to 82 materials in a single build.

Take advantage of these benefits to print things like jigs, fixtures, and even short run injection molds. 16-micron layer resolution allows for precise and smooth surfaces right off the printer. With vivid colours, and many material combinations the Objet500 Connex3 becomes your in-house secret weapon.

Hundreds of Digital Materials

Maximize production floor efficiency with the Objet500 Connex3, and its versatility material selection. Base materials include:

• Digital ABS for tough ergonomic tooling. Blending the strongest PolyJet
   material with rubber-like materials can create a number of different feels
   with different durability.

• High Temperature materials are ideal for tooling and fixtures required to
   withstand higher heat. Blend with rubber-like to create different ranges.

• Bio-compatible material offers excellent stability and visualization for
   applications like surgical guides and hearing aids.

• Simulated Polypropylene is a tough, single-material option designed to
   withstand high stress associate with living hinges and snap features.
