The Technology An additive layer-by-layer process, 3D Printing (MJM) technology uses thermoplastic material deposited in layers on a platform. Step by step: A 3D CAD file is translated into a surface model made up of thousands of small triangles. The file is sliced into many layers like a stack of cards and transferred into 3D Printer. A thermal inkjet process is used to print layer upon layer of both build and support material to create a solid object. For plastic parts, the photo curable build material is further hardened by UV light during the process. When the build is complete the support material (wax) is melted or dis solved leaving the final part ready for use. The Technology Based on 3D Systems proprietary and proven MJM technology, 3DRapidPrint.com operates the latest fleet of high definition 3D Printers, delivering plastic and wax parts with unmatched part quality 24 hours per day, every day. 3D Systems comprehensive family of ProJet 3D Printers consistently build readyto-use parts using a variety of material options.

3 STEREOLITHOGRAPHY (SLA) Stereolithography (SLA) is often considered the pioneer of the Rapid Prototyping industry, with the first commercial system introduced in 1988 by 3D Systems. The system consists of an Ultra-Violet Laser, a vat of photo-curable liquid resin, and a controlling system. A platform is lowered into the resin (via an elevator system), such that the surface of the platform is a layer-thickness below the surface of the resin. The laser beam then traces the boundaries and fills in a two-dimensional cross section of the model, solidifying the resin wherever it touches. Once a layer is complete, the platform descends a layer thickness, resin flows over the first layer, and the next layer is built. This process continues until the model is complete. Once the model is complete, the platform rises out of the vat and the excess resin is drained. The model is then removed from the platform, washed of excess resin, and then placed in a UV oven for a final curing. The stereolithography model is then finished by smoothing the stair-steps. Stereolithography Highlights Excellent for Fit and Form Testing and Show Models. Maximum dimensions for instant quotes: 25 x 25 x 21. Parts with larger dimensions are also available. Please contact your sales manager to discuss. Stereolithography material choices include: Technician s Choice, Semi-Flexible, PE-Like (Somos 8110); Durable, PP-Like / ABS-Like (Accura 25 / Somos 9420); ABS-Like (Accura Xtreme / Accura 55 / RenShape 7811 / RenShape 7820 / Somos 18420); High-Impact ABS-Like (Somos NeXt); Rigid, PC-Like (Accura 60 / Somos / Accura ClearVue); High-Temp ABS-Like (Accura Bluestone); High Temp PC-Like, Rigid (Accura PEAK); High Resolution (ABS-Like / Durable / Rigid / Accura Xtreme).

Stereolithography Layer Thickness: High Resolution: ; Standard Resolution: SLA Finish Options: Standard, Primed, Painted, WaterClear. Samples available upon request. Nickel-Plated SLA SLA is an additive manufacturing process in which a UV laser traces a cross section of the part onto a vat of UV-curable liquid photopolymer resin, hardening the resin. Each successive cross section is traced onto the resin, and the part builds up layer by layer. SLA is great for concept models, rapid prototypes, master patterns, snap fit assemblies, form-and-fit testing and tradeshow models Smooth surface finish, high precision, shorter lead time, a wide variety of materialand post processing options. Lead Time: same day, next day, or choose the ship date Nickel-plating provides added strength, waterproofing, and electrical conductivity to your stereolithography prototype. Page 3
4 SLS is an additive manufacturing method in which a laser bonds small grains of material, creating cross sections of the required part layer by layer. SLS is a perfect option for functional testing, rapid prototyping, low-volume manufacturing, and highheat and chemically resistant applications. SLS produces parts in nylon-based materials that can include filler such as glass fiber or carbon Great part durability, capable of producing highly complex geometries, snap fits and living hinges. SELECTIVE LASER SINTERING (SLS) Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses a laser to sinter powder based materials together, layer-by-layer, to form a solid model. The system consists of a laser, part chamber, and control system. The part chamber consists of a build platform, powder cartridge, and leveling roller. A thin layer of build material is spread across the platform where the laser traces a two-dimensional cross section of the part, sintering the material together. The platform then descends a layer thickness and the leveling roller pushes material from the powder cartridge across the build platform, where the next cross section is sintered to the previous. This continues until the part is completed. Once the model is complete, it is removed from the part chamber and finished by removing any loose material and smoothing the visible surfaces. Selective Laser Sintering Highlights Ideal for durable, functional parts with a variety of applications. Capable of producing snap fits and living hinges. Maximum dimension for instant quote: 28 x19 x19. Parts with larger dimensions are also available. Please contact your sales manager to discuss. SLS Material choices include: Nylon (Duraform PA), Glass-Filled Nylon (Duraform GF), Flame Retardant Nylon and Durable Nylon (Duraform EX).

5 ColorJet Printing (CJP) ColorJet Printing (CJP) is an additive manufacturing technology which involves two major components core and binder. The Core material is spread in thin layers over the build platform with a roller. After each layer is spread, color binder is selectively jetted from inkjet print heads over the core layer, which causes the core to solidify. The build platform lowers with every subsequent layer which is spread and printed, resulting in a full-color three-dimensional model. Whether printed with color or in standard white, parts can be additionally clear coated to add a hard smooth coating or wax coated to smooth out the surface finish. ColorJet Printing Highlights Excellent for demonstration models, especially where color or labels are required to demonstrate final product. Maximum dimensions for instant quotes: 10 x 15 x 8. Parts with larger dimensions are also available. Please contact your sales manager to discuss. CJP materials: VisiJet PXL Standard Tolerances of: +/ for the first inch, +/ on every inch thereafter. In the z height (vertical), standard tolerances of +/ for the first inch, +/ on every inch thereafter. CJP Layer Thickness: Horizontal build layers between.0035 and.004. CJP Finish Options: Standard (Coated with ColorBond) CJP is an additive manufacturing technology in which core material is spread in thin layers over a build platform. Color binder is then selectively jetted over every layer of core material, and the part builds one layer at a time. CJP is perfect for creating full-color concept models, architectural models and demonstration models. Wide range of colors, quick production time, and parts can be hard or wax coated for smooth finish. Lead Time: 5-7 days Page 5
6 MJP is an additive manufacturing method in which UV bulbs fully cure layer upon layer of superfine, UV-curable acrylic plastics. MJP is excellent for formand-fit testing, show models, concept models, direct casting patterns and rapid prototyping. High resolution, can be painted, machined, drilled or chrome plated, wide range of applications. MultiJet Printing (MJP) MultiJet Printing (MJP) is a new Rapid Prototyping process that provides a quick turnaround for smooth, fully cured parts. The process consists only of UV bulbs and photopolymer materials. ProJet MultiJet Printing machines fully cure each layer of super fine UV curable acrylic plastics and support materials. Support material is easily separated from the part by a melting and washing process. No extra finishing treatments are needed. Finished MJP parts can readily absorb paint and can also be machined, drilled, nickel-plated or used for direct casting patterns. MultiJet Printing Highlights Excellent for Fit and Form Testing and show models. Maximum dimensions for instant quotes: x 7.3 x 8. Parts with larger dimensions are also available. Please contact your sales manager to discuss. MJP material choices include: VisiJet Crystal and VisiJet Procast. Standard Tolerances of: +/ for the first inch, +/ on every inch thereafter.

MJP Finish Options: Standard. Lead Time: 3-5 days Page 6
7 Plastic Jet Printing (PJP) Plastic Jet Printing (PJP) is a solid-based rapid prototyping method that extrudes material, layer-by-layer, to build a model. The system consists of a build platform, extrusion nozzle, and control system. The build material, a production quality thermoplastic, is melted and then extruded through a specially designed head onto a platform to create a two-dimensional cross section of the model. The cross section quickly solidifies, and the platform descends where the next layer is extruded upon the previous layer. This continues until the model is complete, where it is then removed from the build chamber and cleaned for shipping. Plastic Jet Printing Highlights Ideal for Conceptual Models, Engineering Models, and Functional Testing Prototypes. Maximum dimensions for instant quotes: 20 x20 x20. Parts with larger dimensions are also available. Please contact your sales manager to discuss. Maximum dimensions for parts in single build: ABS - 23 x19 x23, Polycarbonate (PC) - 14 x16 x16.

12 Sheet metal parts are produced using laser cutting, water jet or chemical etching processes to form blanks from sheet metal stock. Blanks are then bent to shape using press brakes or quick custom tooling to form the final geometry. Geometries can include gussets, contouring, embossing and pierced features, and parts can be made functional by adding any PEM or other hardware. Wide range of metals available, tolerances comparable to die tooling. Lead Time: 5-10 days QuickMetal Plaster Mold Casting n prototype plaster mold casting, an SLA master model is replicated into silicone rubber and used as a reusable master pattern for a single-use plaster mold. This method is limited to low-melt alloys such as Aluminum and Zinc. The QuickMetal process of plaster mold casting can be summarized as such: SLA Master Pattern (positive) ->RTV mold (negative) -> RTV mold (positive) -> Plaster mold (negative) -> Final casting (positive) A plaster, usually gypsum or calcium sulfate, is mixed with talc, sand, asbestos, sodium silicate, and water to form a slurry. This slurry is sprayed on the polished surfaces of the pattern halves. The slurry sets in less than 15 minutes to form the mold. The mold halves are extracted carefully from the pattern and then dried in an oven. The mold halves are carefully assembled, along with the cores. Then, the molten metal is poured in the molds. After the metals cools down, the plaster is broken and the cores are washed out. TYPICAL USES Materials with low melting temperature, such as aluminum and zinc, can be cast using this process. This process is used to make quick prototype parts as well as low volume production parts. LIMITATIONS Size - Parts cast are usually small to medium size, ranging in weight from 30 g (1 oz) to 7 kg (15 lb). Finishing The surface finish is 1.25 µm to 3 µm (50 µin to 125 µin) RMS. Page 12

14 QuickCast is an SLA build style that creates hollow direct patterns for investment casting. Hexagonal support structures add strength, allow for easy drainage and facilitate collapse of the pattern during thermal expansion. Provides invaluable shrink and gating information prior to hard tooling, large pattern size, smooth surfaces, faster than using tooling to create wax patterns. QuickCast Patterns QuickCast is an SLA build style trademarked by 3D Systems and was created to meet the needs of the Investment Casting industry. QuickCast patterns were the first direct pattern (patterns create via a 3D printing process) and are by far, the most popular direct pattern technology in North America. While Stereolithography and Rapid Prototyping in general have greatly reduced time to market, Quickcast patterns for investment casting have had the most profound effect on this industry. Quickcast replaces the time consuming process of creating tooling to produce wax patterns, allowing the review of metal designs in days instead of months. The QuickCast build style consists of a hollow stereolithography pattern with an internal hexagonal support structure that adds strength to the pattern, allows for easy drainage, and facilitates collapse of the pattern during thermal expansion to help avoid cracking the shell. QuickCast patterns provide several advantages compared to other direct patterns. Key benefits Accuracy SLA systems provide very good accuracy and rival the accuracy of CNC machined systems. Large size capability We can build patterns in one piece up to 59 x29 x20. Larger patterns can be created by building the pattern in sections and joining them together. Smooth surface finish Our fleet of ipro systems build the smoothest surfaces of any 3D printing technology. With additional finishing, surface roughness of less than 75µin Ra can be achieved. Materials 3DRapidPrint exclusively uses the CastPro resin for QuickCast patterns, the best investment casting resin on the market. Because the pattern will not melt out in the autoclave but instead must be burned out prior to pouring, some modifications of the conventional investment casting process are required. 3D has published The 3D Systems Guide to Processing QuickCast Patterns. Page 14
15 ProJet Wax Patterns ProJet Wax Patterns - Given their preferences, many foundries would prefer to work with wax patterns and our Professional 3D Printers, including theprojet 3510 CPX system, fit the requirements for accurate, reliable processing. They build excellent wax patterns directly, that are easily cast by any foundry. Whether only one or hundreds of patterns are needed quickly, you can count on our ProJet Wax Patterns to fit into your normal foundry processing procedures, just as though they had been injection molded in pattern wax. Using the Multi-Jet Modeling (MJM) Technology, 3D Systems 3D ProJet Printers use VisiJet Materials to build accurate, high definition wax patterns for direct investment casting. While the build envelope for the ProJet is limited, the wax patterns have several advantages. ProJet wax patterns are high-definition wax patterns created on 3D Systems ProJet 3D printers and used for direct investment casting. High definition, quick lead time, range of finishes and resolutions. Resolution Options The ProJet has excellent resolution, it can build detail that would normally be very difficult to mold. In fact, the detail resolution is so good that the systems are often used for jewelry applications. We can print your part designs to meet High Detail and Accuracy requirements using High Resolution Mode or the more economical Standard Resolution Mode options. You specify what is most important, and we will tailor your project to meet those needs. Finish Options Several resolution modes are available, in the higher resolution settings, the surface finish hard to distinguish from molded patterns, even without finishing. Patterns are easy to cast. No special finishing steps need to be taken. Pattern Size Of course any size pattern can be made by assembling segmented pieces, but effectively, one piece patterns up to approximately 11.5 x 7.25 x 7 can be built on the ProJet CPX 3500 machines.

16 Utilizing 3D Systems CastForm PS material, patterns are3d printed for use in the metal casting processes. CastForm patterns are best suited for automotive and machine components that do not demand a fine surface finish. Shrinks in autoclave, reduced casting failure, easy processing. CastForm Patterns Patterns created with CastForm PS material are low density (45% dense); they are infiltrated with foundry wax to create a pattern that is easy to handle and finish. CastForm PS material patterns require few modifications to standard foundry practices and remove quickly and easily. CastForm patterns are compatible with autoclaves, low-temperature furnaces, and vacuum plaster casting methods. CastForm PS material s low ash content (<0.02%) makes it ideal for patterns for casting reactive metals such as titanium; it has also been used successfully with low melt-temperature metals such as aluminum, magnesium, and zinc. Anatomy of the CastForm Pattern Process Patterns are created using the Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) process and 3D Systems CastForm PS material. A high powered laser is used to fuse together the low density CastForm material layer by layer into a finished casting pattern. Once the process is complete, the pattern is infiltrated with wax to seal the surface. Applications CastForm patterns are good for commercial foundry applications requiring complex geometries and utilize reactive and low temperature metals. Benefits Good commercial foundry application Reduced casting failure Minimizes mold cracking Reduced cost Page 16
