Polyjet Printing in GrabCAD Print

5 0 Beginner
This tutorial is an intro to the settings options available in GrabCAD Print for PolyJet printing. PolyJet is a 3D printing technology developed by Stratasys that allows for rigid, opaque, multi-color, transparent and flexible prints. PolyJet uses multiple print heads to deposit liquid plastic onto a clean build platform layer by layer in high resolution. The material is cured as it is deposited and to support material a print can be water blasted to remove a majority of the material. GrabCAD Print is the software developed by GrabCAD to plan and execute prints for Stratasys printers. With this tool, users can import CAD assemblies onto the build tray, plan printing jobs more efficiently, and remotely monitor a print.
