Mosaic Manufacturing has launched its Array Product Ecosystem of fused filament fabrication 3D printing technology to enable scalable output of parts produced with up to eight different materials. The Toronto-based company’s Array platform is comprised of four Element HT 3D printing systems, a robotic system to remove and replace build plates and a Palette X material handling system. “Array’s impact in manufacturing comes from the benefits of enabling 3D printing for scaled applications,” commented Mosaic Manufacturing COO Chris Labelle. Set to begin shipping in December 2021 at prices starting at $59,999, Mosaic Manufacturing believes the Array Production System will enable users to deploy FFF 3D printing as a continuous and lights-out manufacturing process. The Palette 3 systems sit next to the Element 3D printers and facilitate the printing of multiple colours and materials, with the standard system allowing them to print with up to four different materials and the Pro version enabling them to print up to eight materials. Mosaic believes this added colour capability will help users add branding and part serialisation to their printed components, while also enhancing prototyping concepts, architecture models and educational models. Mosaic’s 3D printing ecosystem and standalone products are supported by the Canvas software platform which allows users to slice, manage and monitor print jobs.
