BMF introduces new industrial 3D printer and new Ceramic 3D Printing Materials

From the manufacturing side, the company has released the microArch™ S230, designed for applications that require ultra-high resolution prints (down to 2μm) with accuracy, precision, and speed.

With a larger built volume of 50x50x50mm, the printer is built upon BMF’s patented Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL) technology, a technique that allows for rapid photopolymerization of an entire layer of liquid polymer using a flash of UV light at micro-scale resolution. It delivers design freedom and part resolution, and could print up to 5 times faster prints than previous models in the 2μm series.

A comparison of stereolithography, digital light processing and projection microstereolithography

Chuck Hull invented the first stereolithography (SLA) printer in the early 1980s and this led to the co-founding of 3D Systems, one of the leading companies in the 3D printing industry today. Since then, there have been several variants of SLA, all fundamentally based on the vat photopolymerisation process, namely using light to cure a photosensitive material. There are other polymer 3D printing methods, such as fused deposition modelling (FDM), material jetting (MJ) and selective laser sintering (SLS). They all work on the same basic 3D printing premise of taking digital data and building a part layer by layer, and they all have their unique advantages and disadvantages.

BMF Introduces New High-Resolution microArch S230 Microscale 3D Printer

MIT spin-out Boston Micro Fabrication (BMF) specializes in microscale 3D printing, and launched its original microArch system globally in February of 2020, just in the nick of time before the COVID-19 pandemic began in earnest. Not long after, its microArch S240 for short-run industrial production was introduced, and today, the startup introduced its latest industrial-grade micro-precision AM system: the high-resolution microArch S230. Additionally, BMF is introducing three new materials as well.
