Admaflex Discovery a desktop ceramic 3D printer that can grow with you

Overview

Discovery logo

As the name says, the Discovery is made for exploring and first stage manufacturing of ceramic 3D printing. Its compact desktop form factor gives universities, research institutes and R&D teams direct access to Admatec’s 15+ years of ceramic 3D printing experience, right at a desk. It is aimed at users who know ceramic 3D printing is relevant to their business, have defined the first potential projects, and are ready to discover AM Ceramics.

Upgradeable

An investment that keeps its value

The Discovery is built around customer feedback that want to continue to utilize their investments while requirements advance. Discovery does exactly that. The upgrade will increase the building envelope, have higher projection resolutions, more power, and the ability to work with two resolution settings.

After the upgrade the system becomes a standalone model. Customers can start exploring at a low entry price and expand as their applications mature, continuing to use the system they already know.

  • Customer testimonials

    “The parts 3D printed with the Admaflex 130 meet the required fine features needed for our R&D work.”

    Raymond Wei

  • Customer testimonials

    “The Admatec 3D printer has taken the investment casting prototype manufacturing to the next level. Its simplicity and ease of operation are unmatched compared to traditional pattern 3D printing.”

    Jack Ziemba

  • Customer testimonials

    “Innovative approach for 3D printing of ceramics, not only for academia but also for the production of small series. It performs well on mid-size series for small parts too. The cost-effectiveness makes the process suitable for more applications, leading to more scale of the process as a whole, which will have a further positive impact on costs.”

    Alex Hilgenberg

  • Customer testimonials

    “The Admaflex 130 is world’s first class ceramic 3D printer! The operation is easy and practical in use for material testing and performing research.”

    Li Hongshu Lee

  • Customer testimonials

    “The MEMTI group already had experience with several commercial available 3D printers using the Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology. To take the next step in ceramic material development and production, the group invested in the Admaflex130 3D printer to develop new ceramic materials for the production of components with complex features.”
