Rio Grande is pleased to announce a partnership with B9Creations that brings the “best in 3D printing” to professional jewelers. The new B9 Core Series 3D printer, sold by Rio Grande, marries “plug and grow” ease with some of the fastest printing speeds and smoothest surface resolution of any 3D printing technology available.
“Already renowned for manufacturing the most castable resins on the market, B9Creations developed the B9 Core Series by fine-tuning its printer technology with feedback from real-life users,” said Nathan Button, Equipment Product Manager. “Jewelers asked for a fast, dependable and easy-to-use 3D printer with unbeatable resolution and value. The result is the best balance of 3D printing features and value in the industry.” What’s more, the B9 Core Series works with virtually any resin or CAD .stl design file, and there are no frustrating and expensive service agreements to adhere to.
“I love the fact that they do not need any calibration, which means more time printing,” Gregg continues. “The biggest bonus for us was the success of the casting tests. Every jeweler that 3D prints models knows how difficult and important it is to be able to cast nice, smooth pieces, which means less cleanup, less polishing, less time at the bench.”
Rio Grande is offering the B9 Core Series 3D printer (701-357) with select B9Creations accessories and castable resins. Visit www.riogrande.com and search “B9” for complete information on the new B9 Core Series and related products.
