Xaar has signed an unique business partnership with Quantica to fabricate the corporate’s NovoJet printheads.
Quantica’s NovoJet 3D printing programs are designed to allow ultra-high viscosity printing for 2D and 3D printing purposes. The corporate has partnered with Xaar to reap the benefits of its in depth printhead manufacturing experience.
Manufacturing will happen at Xaar’s high-tech facility in Huntingdon, with the businesses anticipating the preliminary NovoJet printheads to be delivery in Quantica’s first 3D printers from the tip of 2023.
By means of the settlement, Xaar may also have business entry to Quantica’s IP within the jetting of extremely viscous supplies at as much as 400cP at jetting temperature. This can complement Xaar’s current printheads and ImagineX know-how portfolio which already allow jetting as much as 100cP.

Based in 2018 in Berlin, Quantica has devoted its analysis and improvement efforts to each the NovoJet printhead know-how and superior multi-material 3D printers. By partnering with Xaar, Quantica says it is going to additional deal with the event of its 3D printing programs for purposes in dental, medical, electronics, R&D, and extra. Earlier this 12 months, the firm raised 14 million EUR to ‘additional industrialise’ its first merchandise, after debuting its multi-material 3D printing know-how at Formnext 2021.
