Stratasys launches the Origin Two DLP – a next-generation photopolymer 3D printer designed for short production runs

Alongside it, the Origin Cure post-processing station is introduced

Stratasys has announced the addition of a new photopolymer system, the Origin Two DLP, to its extensive range of 3D printers. The machine comes equipped with a dedicated post-processing station – the Origin Cure. The company claims that the new systems have been introduced to meet the growing demand for injection molding-quality parts.

Contrary to its name, the 3D printing technology developed under the Origin brand is not an original manufacturing method by Stratasys or Objet. The Origin company was acquired by Stratasys in December 2020, and its products were sold under the original brand. The Origin Two is the first 3D printer developed under the Stratasys banner, although its development is still partly handled by the original team.

The Origin Two has been designed to achieve consistently high accuracy of +/- 50 µm, making it suitable for industries such as aerospace and automotive for applications like seals and gaskets, housings, and window components. The machine is also said to achieve repeatability of over 93% within +/- 50 µm, a surface finish smoothness of up to RA 3 µm, and maintain a printing speed of up to 20 mm/hour.

The heated chamber allows for printing materials with a heat deflection temperature of up to 300°C, while the system operating at a wavelength of 385 nanometers supports a wide range of high-performance materials, including high-temperature resins and high-viscosity formulations.

Stratasys has already opened up orders for the Origin Two 3D printer and the Origin Cure station.
