Wacker Chemie Announces ACEO Imagine Series K 3D Silicone Printer at K 2016

Global materials and technology manufacturer Wacker Chemie announced that they have developed the world's first industrial 3D printer that uses silicone materials. The world will get their first look at the ACEO Imagine Series K 3D printer at K 2016: International Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber, where it will be in operation throughout the entire trade show at the Wacker booth. The drop-on-demand technology used by the ACEO Imagine Series K produces final parts that are almost indistinguishable from injection-molded parts. The printhead deposits tiny drops of silicone material on a sterile substrate and builds up the print layer by layer, just as with other 3D printing technologies.
