E01 - Polyjet - Additive Technologies (Rapid Prototyping)

This is Episode 1 of a series of video blogs on Additive Technologies (also known as Rapid Prototyping).

Today we're looking at the Multi-Material Polyjet machines which can mix both rigid and soft materials together on the fly to grow parts that simulate over-molding and other complex applications. This process is great for small to medium sized parts (it's not always cost effective for large parts) and is often used for a variety of prototyping applications (the material is not usually suited for end-use applications), creating a direct tool for a silicone mold, and investment casting.
