Jetting ahead for complexity: System uses ultra-fine droplets of metal ink for higher-quality and more detailed parts than are possible with existing additive techniques

摘要

An additive manufacturing system that produces parts by jetting metal ink is to make its European debut at this month's Formnext show in Germany. Developed by Israeli firm Xjet, the system is based on the company's so-called NanoParticle Jetting technology, which uses ink jetting to produce complex metal parts from a suspension of nanoscale particles.
