Z Corporation Device Builds Accurate, High-Resolution Prototypes

New 'ZBuilder Ultra' Rapid Prototype Machine Delivers Functional Plastic Models at Affordable Price

Z Corporation today introduced a rapid prototyping machine that builds high-end functional prototypes at one-third of the price of machines with comparable performance. The ZBuilder Ultra will be available in July.

Despite costing a fraction of the price of a stereolithography machine, the ZBuilder Ultra builds durable plastic parts that rivals injection moulding's accuracy, material properties, detail, and surface finish. It enables engineers to verify designs for form, fit, and function prior to full-scale production, eliminating costly modifications to production tooling and shortening time to market.

How It Works

The ZBuilder Ultra builds 3D parts additively using a high-resolution Digital Light Processor (DLP) projector to solidify a liquid photopolymer.

Where ZBuilder Fits In Product Line

Corporation devices now uniquely span the entire product development process from concept and detail design through building, testing and design verification. Along with its inkjet 3D printers and portable 3D laser scanners, Z Corporation devices compress the design cycle, improve communication, foster collaboration, and reduce costly errors. With a worldwide network of distribution partners, Z Corporation also provides integrated sales, service, and support in all of these development phases.

"ZBuilder is the ideal addition to our product line, enabling customers to streamline the entire product development cycle. For concept and mid-stage modelling when you need speed, low cost, and visual appeal, our ZPrinters are the fastest and only colour 3D printers on the market. And when the material properties of a part are important for final design verification, the affordable ZBuilder delivers parts that rival injection moulding. Bottom line, engineers now have a single source for the best design technologies."
- John Kawola, CEO, Z Corporation
