Massivit 3D, a provider of large-scale 3D printing systems, has added the Massivit 10000-G to its flagship Massivit 10000 line of composite manufacturing systems. These additive manufacturing (AM) systems are designed to automate and speed up mold production for composite manufacturing.

Based on the company’s Cast In Motion technology, the Massivit 10000 facilitates digital production of complex molds, mandrels, master tools, jigs and fixtures for a range of industries, including automotive, rail, marine, defense, bath ware and sporting goods. It is said the system significantly expedites conventional mold production processes by directly casting industrial molds in a matter of days. It also brings to market the first isotropic, 3D-printed mold.

The Massivit 10000-G, the latest addition to the Cast In Motion product line, offers a full range of composite manufacturing applications available on the Massivit 10000, plus a new feature providing access to Massivit 3D’s set of Dimengel photo polymer materials that have until now been used with the company’s Gel Dispensing Printing product line. This feature enables Massivit 3D customers to markedly expand their business services to include direct custom manufacturing and functional prototyping.

The 10000-G also enables tooling applications for thermoforming, resin transfer molding and reaction injection molding. In addition, Dimengel materials respond to essential industry requirements such as flame retardancy, high-definition production and waste reduction.

In addition, Massivit 3D also offers a new, high-impact 3D printing material, Dimengel 400. The company says this material is the strongest and toughest of the company’s Dimengel thermoset photopolymers to date, making it well suited for the production of large, strong and stiff end parts as well as functional prototypes, jigs and fixtures. It is said to offer exceptional mechanical properties, including double the impact resistance of existing high-performance Dimengel materials, as well as a high Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT), enabling production of large parts that can withstand elevated temperatures. Dimengel 400 will be available with both of the company’s production lines.

“We are excited to introduce our latest large-scale 3D printing technologies designed to accelerate digital transformation in the manufacturing market. In particular, the composite manufacturing arena is steeped in labor-intensive and costly processes that are long overdue for innovation,” says Erez Zimerman, Massivit 3D CEO. “Our aim is to facilitate far more efficient processes using industrial-grade materials to maximize the true potential of composite materials.”
