What is the function of the T612 Benchtop and T66 Benchtop?
From files generated by using popular CAD software, the T612 Benchtop and T66 Benchtop systems build very accurate 3D models, droplet-by-droplet (6,000 to 12,000 per second!!), layer-by-layer out of a thermoplastic material. Models produced are accurate to 1 thousandth of an inch per inch in the X, Y and Z dimensions. • Q: What kind of technology is it? A: Solidscape’s technology is based on the same process as an inkjet plotter. There are two inkjet heads, both depositing a material. One head deposits a cyan thermoplastic material (InduraCast) – similar to an investment casting wax. The other deposits a purple wax (InduraFill) that serves as a sacrificial support material for the model and is dissolved in a mineral oil bath after the model is complete. • Q: Are the T612 and T66 Benchtop systems similar to an SLA machine? A: No. SLA models are normally used as concept models. Our process takes you several steps further toward your final part. Models built on the T612 and T66 Benchtop s
