Sometimes, one material or color at a time just isn’t enough
PolyJet offers the unique ability to print parts and assemblies made of multiple model materials, colors and transparency, with different mechanical or physical properties, all in a single build. So you can confidently order parts of unparalleled complexity, made of several materials and colors, and with the finish of a high-quality end product.
Why choose PolyJet?
PolyJet technology enables horizontal layers of just 32 µm, fine details, and ultra-thin walls down to 0.6 mm depending on the geometry of the part. That means PolyJet is capable of building very precise mechanical components, offering you high-quality prototypes for a shorter time to market.
Ideal applications for PolyJet
- Visual models with fine details and smooth surfaces
- Prototypes for form-and-fit testing
- Accurate tooling patterns for plastic parts
- Parts to match specific Shore A values and colors
- Masters for copying techniques such as Vacuum Casting

Materials
Vero (Rigid, multicolor)
This set of Vero materials is rigid and opaque, with a high level of surface detail and available in multiple colors. These PolyJet materials are general-purpose resins, offering enhanced mechanical properties and the ability to withstand bending. We offer opaque colors in the Vero line. These materials can be blended with others on PolyJet machines to achieve your desired level of rigidity, translucency or heat resistance.
VeroClear (Rigid, transparent)
VeroClear is a transparent, rigid material that offers exceptional surface detail, in common with the Vero family of materials. The high dimensional stability and smooth surface quality of VeroClear make it an ideal material for fine-detailed model building, or prototypes for clear parts. With its transparent appearance, VeroClear is also ideal for parts which require visibility of liquid flows. To create an endless variety of translucent shades or patterns, VeroClear can be combined with colored materials on PolyJet machines.
Composite materials (Flexible)
The Agilus family of materials is a set of flexible, rubber-like resins for PolyJet. Agilus is translucent while Agilus Black is a vivid black. Both Agilus materials provide superior tear-resistance and elongation at break making them suitable for prototypes of rubber components like seals, non-slip surfaces, overmolding, etc. Agilus materials can be combined with Vero materials to simulate specific Shore values, influence tensile strength, and tear resistance. We offer six composite materials with preset combinations of mechanical properties: Shore A40 - Shore A50 - Shore A60 - Shore A70 - Shore A85 - Shore A95.

How Does PolyJet Work?
PolyJet works by jetting photopolymer materials in ultra-thin layers onto a build platform. Each photopolymer layer is cured by UV light immediately after it is jetted, producing fully cured models that can be handled and used immediately, without post-curing. The gel-like support material, designed to support complicated geometries, is subsequently removed by water jetting.
