BMF MED powered by 3D Systems is a rigid amber material for applications requiring biocompatibility, translucency and/or thermal resistance. It provides parts with crisp details, that can be sterilized and tested at high temperatures, over 100 °C.
Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL).
Boston Micro Fabrication (BMF) is the leading manufacturer of industrial micro precision 3D printers. BMF uses an innovative technology called Projection Micro Stereolithography or PµSL, a technique that allows for rapid photopolymerization of a layer of liquid polymer using a flash of UV light at micro-scale resolution.
Using industrial-grade composite polymers and ceramics, BMF is capable of achieving resolution of 2µm~50µm and tolerance of +/- 5µm~25µm, thus providing mold-free, ultra-high-resolution fast prototyping and end part capability. Today, BMF is the only industrial 3D printing company to match the quality of high-resolution injection molding and CNC processing.
