Prototyping in an office environment

ARRK Silhouette’s new machine, the Objet Quadra, is a user-friendly network inkjet system, that produces high resolution 3D models and prototypes directly from STL files.

The Objet Quadra 3D prototyping inkjet system.

With the push of a button, Arrk makes it possible for companies to print their own functional prototypes with ease and simplicity.

Objet Quadra is a low cost 3D printing technology that builds prototypes with very fine detail and superior surface finish - up to three times faster than traditional RP machines.

Arrk Silhouette is the distributor of Objet and design and manufacturing industries will now be able to produce not only fast prototypes, but prototypes that contain a level of accuracy, durability and detail comparable to a stereolithography or Selective Laser Sintering machine, but at a fraction of the cost.

The Objet Quadra is lightning fast, building each layer at 0.0008" in as little as six seconds, containing a smooth finish that results in far less post-processing time.

It has has a building platform of 270 x 300 x 200mm, to quickly produce multiple parts at the one time. Objet prototypes are built from an acrylate-based photopolymer. This material proves to be a strong choice for patterns used in secondary RP tooling, such as silicone tooling.

Objet is a fast and easy way to produce flawless designs in an environment of ever-shrinking timelines. Time constraints no longer rein in creativity, because it can produce multiple design iterations in hours instead of days.

An easy way to produce flawless designs.

Built for maximum throughput, Objet can support a whole department. From the design and CAD validation stage, through to engineering trials and tooling analysis.

The superior surface finish obtained on Objet parts makes it suitable as a presentation aid at exhibitions, photo shoots, or as a "sales closing" tool.

Since Objet constructs prototypes directly from electronic data, with little human intervention, it is not only rapid but also very easy and simple to control.

Designed to operate within a normal office environment, the Objet RP system builds 3D models using an ink-jet technology combined with photopolymer resins.

As the ink-jet deposits fine droplets of resin (both model material and support material) a UV lamp immediately cures the material. As with all RP systems, this is done on a layer-by-layer basis, and as a result there are no limitations to design complexity.

This process produces a highly accurate, smooth finish, without any extra finishing.
