XJet Launches Breakthrough Carmel AM System Product Line

XJet Ltd. introduces the groundbreaking XJet Carmel AM System product line, including the Carmel 1400 and Carmel 700 AM systems. The XJet Carmel 1400 Additive Manufacturing (AM) system for ceramics and metals was exhibited at formnext.

Using the company's patented NanoParticle JettingTM technology, XJet Carmel evenly distributes ultra-fine nanoscale metal or ceramic powders in “inks” to “suspend” them into “liquid” and then deliver them through high-speed 3D printing technology. Printed in a high temperature environment, because the powder is very fine, it will "bond" to each other at high temperatures, so that the printed product has a smooth surface. This allows manufacturers to easily and versatilely produce metal or ceramic parts.

The Carmel 1400 and Carmel 700 offer outstanding detail, surface finish and precision. They are simple and safe to operate, while giving designers a high level of design flexibility. The support structure printed by the new system is very easy to remove. Other user-friendly features include a touch screen interface and remote monitoring via a mobile app. Industries for Carmel equipment include health and medical devices, dentistry, automotive, aerospace, consumer goods, jewellery and apparel, energy, and tooling. Specific applications include short-term manufacturing, on-demand manufacturing, and prototypes.

The XJet Carmel 1400 has a production tray of 1400 square centimeters, one of the largest production pallets in the industry for high volume production with unique ceramic and metal 3D printing capabilities. The first XJet Carmel 1400 system has been delivered to customer Oerlikon.

Oerlikon-Oerlikon's production site in Barleben, Germany, has been using XJet for field testing. Initially, XJet's additive manufacturing system was used to make ceramic components (ceramic zirconia), which will later be used to make metal parts.

Not only is Oerlikon's cooperation with XJet, but also the 3D printed parts of XJet equipment and Oerlikon's end-to-end manufacturing services at Formnext 2017. Currently, XJet's equipment is also used by incubators. XJet provided the XJet Carmel 1400 Additive Manufacturing System to the Youngstown Business Incubator (YBI) and Youngstown State University, becoming the first XJet Additive Manufacturing System installed in the United States.

The equipment will be put into use in January 2018. During the test, the focus will be on R&D and ceramic materials for component production, which are used in aerospace and biomedical applications.
