3D Systems Releases Its Own Soluble Filament for Complex, Moving 3D Prints

Other 3D printer manufacturers have been promoting the use of water soluble filament for their machines for some time, but, because 3D Systems’ Cube 3 and CubePro rely on filament cartridge systems, the use of such filament, for printing support structures to create more complex prints, is not as easy as inserting a third-party material and printing.? Fortunately for Cube owners, 3D Systems has just released their Infinity Rinse-Away water-soluble support material.

The Infinity Rinse-Away material, available at $49 for the Cube and $99 for the CubePro, is meant to dissolve quickly and cleanly with nothing other than ordinary water. This opens up awesome possibilities for Cube users to 3D print even more elaborate designs, including “gravity defying overhangs and suspension in space”, as well as objects with moving parts. Because the Cube 3 and CubePro are designed to be plug-and-play machines, this whole process is supposed to be as painless as possible, with the 3DS Cubify app automatically generating support structures.

Peter Theran, Vice President of Global Consumer Products at 3DS, says of the new release, “We are thrilled to expand our desktop printing materials with the introduction of Infinity Rinse-Away soluble support material, enabling never-before-possible results from consumer 3D printers. We are excited to see the amazing things that our growing user base will do with these powerful new capabilities.”

It’s great to see 3D Systems get on board with soluble support materials, which obviously allow for so many more possibilities for desktop 3D printing. Now, the question is: when will the company begin selling composite filaments, as well?

其他3D打印機制造商一直在推廣使用水溶性長絲作為機器的一段時間，但是，因為3D系統的立方體3和CuBePro依賴于燈絲盒系統，所以使用這樣的長絲，用于打印支撐結構以創建更復雜的打印，并不是易于插入第三方材料和打印。幸運的是，立方體所有者，3D系統剛剛發布了他們的無限沖洗水溶性支持材料。

3D系統無窮支撐材料3D打印

無限的漂洗材料，可在$49的立方體和$99為CuBePro，意欲快速和干凈地溶解，除了普通的水。這為立方體用戶提供了3D打印更可怕的可能性，甚至更精細的設計，包括“重力對抗懸垂和懸空”，以及帶有移動部件的物體。因為立方體和CubePro被設計為即插即用機器，所以整個過程應該盡可能無痛，3DS立體化應用程序自動生成支持結構。

彼得Theran，全球消費產品部3DS的副總裁說，新發布的，“我們很高興能擴大我們的桌面印刷材料，推出無限沖洗，客場可溶性支撐材料，使從消費者對3D以前從未有可能的結果打印機。我們很高興地看到了令人驚奇的事情，我們不斷增長的用戶群將如何處理這些強大的新功能。“

很高興看到3D系統加入了可溶性支持材料，這顯然允許了桌面3D打印的更多可能性。現在的問題是：公司什么時候開始銷售復合長絲呢？
