Printer compatibility

Armadillo Blue (XL)

This printer comes equipped with all applicable add-ons for industrial and high-tech applications. It includes integrated NOAH control, the Reduction Insert for small prints, our printhead capping system to use fast-drying binders, and more.

Elephant Blue

This industrial production system boasts a print capacity of 1.000 liters per day and includes all hardware add-ons to efficiently print materials like Silicon Carbide at scale, with a print box measuring 1 x 2 x 0,8 meters.

Armadillo White

Consistently test with tiny material volumes, benefit from built-in hardware support for compounds that cure with heat or UV light, or analyze and adjust the binder drop size, speed, and shape – it’s all possible. Armadillo White is a researcher’s dream.

Industry & High-Tech

Our industrial production solutions for ceramics offer a compelling case to swiftly create unprecedented part shapes while offering full flexibility while supporting sustainability in industry & high-tech applications like semiconductors, electronics, energy, aerospace and many others.

Technology

Binder jetting 3D printing is based on two key elements: a powder and a binder. The powder can be a concrete, metal, ceramic, or other material you want to bond in powder form. The binder is a liquid, which acts as an adhesive between powder layers.

Print your own materials

Our team of binder jetting experts is ready to enable you to use your own powder-based material for printing. We can either test your powders with existing binders, or even create unique combinations with custom binders. We strive to deliver the material you are looking for in an optimized printing and scalable production process.
