At Euromold, 3D Systems announced its ProJet® 4500 3D printer, a continuous-tone, full-color plastic 3D printer. This 3D printer delivers ready-to-use vibrant, full-color durable plastic parts straight out of the printer for a wide range of modeling, functional prototyping and real-use products.

The ProJet 4500 builds on 3DS’ ColorJet Printing (CJP) technology platform and comes with a new class of sustainable VisiJet® C4 Spectrum materials. This printer delivers strong semi-rigid parts, pixel-by-pixel, straight out of the printer, in high-resolution, pantone-like color with a superior surface finish. Safe for office, easy-to-use, sustainable to operate and fast to print on, the 3D printer is economical and comes with fully integrated material recycling for greater yield and better total material usage.

“Leapfrogging from monochrome to full-color functional plastics redefines ‘the possible’ for designers, engineers, architects, marketers and artists,” said Buddy Byrum, Vice President, Product and Channel Management, 3D Systems. “Users can get, directly out of a 3D printer, real-use parts, vibrant models, and functional prototypes in full color, quickly, accurately and affordably.”

The ProJet 4500 prints fast, generates minimal waste, requires no supports and delivers ready-to-use, full-color, functional parts and assemblies without post-processing or painting. This 3D printer is suitable for consumer products, home furnishings, healthcare, toys and collectibles companies, and shifts the paradigm for professionals engaged in architectural modeling, marketing communications, fashion design and more.
