Prodways and Austrian manufacturer W2P have joined together for a fascinating new venture. The companies are collaborating to release a new 3D printer, meant for professionals interested in dental, jewelery, education and prototyping, called the Promaker LD-3.
The dental package is quite interesting. It includes a full support and training materials along with dental materials. The companies will release the new printer in the third quarter of 2018. The dental package will be going for €1,990. It will host 3 types of resins: those for crowns, bridges etc., ones for thermoforming like dental aligners, retainers and, finally, burnout resins for stellite casting or fixed crowns (metal or ceramic). It also includes CE approved resins for implant guides.
Producing a Compact 3D Printer
While they’ve only announced the release of the dental version, similar packages are on their way for jewelry and education. The companies have scheduled them for 2019 releases. The idea behind the printer was to produce something that would fit in all sorts of environments easily.
According to Prodways:
This new ProMaker LD-3, confirms Prodways’ drive to offer the professional performance of DLP technologies in a more compact, multi-functional format at an affordable price, in order to meet the needs of professionals initiating their transition to a digital work stream. In order to adapt to the several markets of dental, jewelry, education or prototyping, the new ProMaker LD-3 3D printer will offer a compact design, in order to fit into all environments with these high performance specifications:
