When we met Quantica at RAPID + TCT this year, we were so impressed with its inkjet 3D printing technology that we quickly invited Founder Ben Hartkopp onto the 3DPOD to discuss the startup’s plans. After unveiling the T1 Pro printer at Formnext 2021, the Berlin-based firm is back with a desktop system, dubbed the NovoJet C-7.
Quantica’s Desktop Inkjet 3D Printer
Quantica’s inkjet technology is unique in its ability to process high viscosity materials, potentially opening up the inkjetting segment to the production of a much broader range of functional items. Incorporating this technology into a compact package, the NovoJet C-7 can 3D print with viscosities of over 380mPas at jetting temperature, which equates to about 4,000 mPas at ambient temperature. That’s about 15 times more viscous traditional inkjet 3D printing.
