The Thermo Jet printer uses a jetting process to build wax-like polymer models layer by layer through precisely controlled jets that spray 0.08mm squares. Each new layer is rolled to a thickness of 0.08mm before the platen drops and the next layer is jetted. Support columns underneath overhangs and complex shapes allow them to be printed freely and later joined together. Completed prints are trimmed to remove the support structure. Large patterns can also be made by dividing the CAD file and gluing together individual printed pieces to match dimensions.
