Izhar Medalsy is the Chief Technology Officer of Nexa3D, a 3D printer OEM who is breaking the barriers of Additive Manufacturing and leading the ultrafast polymer 3D printing revolution.

On this episode of AM Voices, Izhar spoke with Adam Penna about the technology behind the reality of scaling polymer resin 3D printing and where speed and accuracy are the core value of scaling operations.

Topics include:

1:00 – Izhar’s inspirational background and experience – PhD Physical Chemistry – Nano and polymer development – now Photopolymer thermoplastics (high temp)
· What drives innovation decisions at Nexa3D?
2:30 – Motivation & innovation for high speed 3d printing – What is the secret to building faster 3D printers? Dynamic transformation. Days to hours “transform the way you design and iterate products”
5:14 – The secret to faster speed resin printers -“LSPc technology speed is at the core of our hardware”
8:50 – Scaling LCD for high speed resin 3D printing – scale – resolution – uniformity
11:44 – How Nexa3D’s recently launched desktop 3D printer, with this technology, fits into the bigger picture?
14:55 – What else makes XiP unique compared with other desktop 3D printers?
16:00 – Materials advantages
17:23 – Market pricing of Nexa 3D printer
18:04 – Post processing – What happens after the print comes off the printer? – end-to-end solutions – efficiency
22:05 – Applications
23:49 – Injection molding & 3D printing reality – competitive material development
“Speed of course is our main focus, but there are several other key differentiators”
27:31 – What’s forecasted for hardware and software development to scale 3D printing for design production?

About Nexa3D 

Nexa3D is a team of passionate additive manufacturing practitioners that are committed to digitizing the world’s supply chain sustainably.

We make the world’s fastest polymer 3D printers accessible to professionals and businesses of all sizes. Our groundbreaking technology is shattering traditional 3D printing productivity barriers and opening the aperture of additive materials.

Our printers take current additive manufacturing speeds from ‘dialup internet’ to ‘broadband’ printing and are capable of continuously printing at speeds of up to 8 liters per hour. This represents up to 20x productivity gains over all current state additive products and is comparable only to injection molding economics — existing supply chain complexities, extended lead-times and the substantial costs typically associated with tooled plastics.
