With so many 3D printers on the market its easy to get lost just trying to make sense of the options out there. While it isn’t too difficult to get your hands on an entry level printer, the commercial quality printers are significantly more elusive. We recently sat down with the Toronto Star to talk about 3D printing and specifically, 3D printing on our Stratasys (formerly Objet) Connex500 multi-material printer.

With 16 micron resolution and multiple material jets, the Connex500 presents limitless options. With the ability to combine rigid and flexible materials in a single print it presents some serious benefits over single material printers and its 16 micron resolution means print surfaces are smoother than ever.

The full article can be found here and is a great introduction to 3D printing for the uninitiated. Along with the article, we shot a a short video where Derek demonstrates our PolyJet printers and provides some insight into what they can do.

Inspired yet? We thought so.
