If your business is rapid prototyping, the Stratasys Eden350 PolyJet system announced today brings forth increased resolution and quicker speeds that may well be of importance to you.

"The Eden350V has speed-and-resolution settings that allow users to select between highest model quality or highest build speed. The speed increase is achieved by changing horizontal resolution to 30-microns (0.0011 in.). In its high-quality mode, a resolution of 16-micron (0.0006 in.) layers enables detail and surface finish smoothness that rivals any competitive process. Both settings offer excellent quality, with an X, Y and Z resolution of 600 x 600 x 1,600 dpi respectively, constituting a 100 percent increase in Y resolution over the Eden333.

The 350 and 350V are built on a new high-performance platform, which was introduced last November. The systems have a larger build envelope than the 333, measuring 13.8 x 13.8 x 7.9 in. They also accept Jumbo-size 3.6 kg material cartridges, accept all available PolyJet material families; including the Tango, Vero, and translucent FullCure lines."
