Polyjet prototypes from Vista Technologies

Turning CAD files into tangible 3D Polyjet models quickly—in one to three days.

The Connex 500 (Polyjet technology) creates a tangible, 3D prototype from CAD drawings by laying droplets of polymer resin down and curing it with ultraviolet lights. The Polyjet technology has the ability to build parts in .001” and .0006” layers. After the parts in the build are complete, each Polyjet model is then hand-finished to your specifications. This includes anything from a rough-edged model to a glossy, painted real-life replica, depending on your needs. The benefit of the Connex 500 is that it has the ability to run multiple materials on the same platform. This allows us to achieve overmolding and living hinged parts.

The end product is an exact physical model, or Polyjet prototype, of the 3D drawing - giving designers, engineers, manufacturers, sales managers, marketing directors and prospective customers the opportunity to handle a Polyjet model of the new product. In this way, design iterations can be made quickly and inexpensively, guaranteeing companies the best product possible, in the shortest time possible.
