RPS launches Neo450 industrial SLA 3D printer series – technical specifications and pricing

SLA系统制造商RPS已经宣布了其工业Neo450 series3D打印机。

Available in two distinct models, the Neo450e and the Neo450s, the machine is based on the company’s debut Neo800 3D printer. With a large-format build volume of 450 x 450 x 400mm, the Neo450 is primarily intended for prototyping, rapid tooling, and master patterning applications – all with “exceptional surface quality, accuracy, and detail”.

David Storey, Director of RPS, states: “The Neo is a technically advanced product packed with great benefits and features, and significantly raises the bar and expectations within the field of SLA printing. We developed the Neo 3D printer to drive forward and transform the expectations of stereolithography. Thankfully, gone are the days of hand finishing poor quality parts from fragile materials. Neo printed parts rival both the quality and accuracy of injection molded parts directly from the printer.”

Industrial SLA with the Neo series

With the two new launches, RPS’ Neo series is now three strong. The British manufacturer previously only offered one machine, the Neo800, alongside its software portfolio. Launched in 2016, the Neo800 features an impressive build volume of 800 x 800 x 600mm, enabling large part or high throughput production with ease.

该机器被称为“开放树脂系统”,与所有可在355nm处固化的SLA树脂兼容,使用户可以选择最适合其需求的材料。迄今为止,Neo800在F1,汽车和3D打印服务局的商店地板上有大量使用。它还以其连接性而自豪,其中包含一个内置的观察摄像头并通过电子邮件发送了Build Progress报告。

The Neo450 series

在兄弟姐妹中,Neo450e是更实惠的。该工业系统旨在以一致的准确性和可重复性生产中小型零件,并具有强大的1W激光。大桶可以充分容纳158公斤(141L)的树脂,从而实现不间断的打印。

另一方面,Neo450的性能有所改善。该系统具有更大的2W激光器,并以打印速度交付零件的速度高达40%。3轴动态扫描系统和高级软件算法意味着机器可以制造任何几何形状。与450E不同,450S还具有两种构建模式 - 标准(SD)和高清(HD)。这对于尺寸精度绝对至关重要的情况非常有用,还消除了对具有不同功能的多个打印机的需求。

Storey adds, “With the Neo450 series, we wanted to design and develop a reliable, versatile machine that offered customers more functionality. With the Neo450e, customers can produce complex industrial-grade quality parts from an affordable 3D printer. With the Neo450s, customers can now quickly produce small to medium parts in SD or build intricate HD parts over the entire build area.”
