Figure 4® Jewelry
Ultra-fast and affordable 3D printing solution
for jewelry design and manufacturing workflows

Part of 3D Systems’ scalable, fully integrated Figure 4 technology
platform, Figure 4 Jewelry is an affordable solution optimized forjewelry design and manufacturing workflows, delivering unparalleledspeed, productivity, ultra-fine detail and smooth surface finish.

Digital Manufacturing With Figure 4 Technology
Integrated Solution to Address Jewelry-Specific Production Workflows
Figure 4 Jewelry uses the high accuracy, fine feature detail, speed and smooth surface finish of Figure 4 technology withoptimized print build styles in the 3D Sprint® software for jewelry, along with specific materials to enable three jewelry
production workflows:

JEWELRY CASTING PATTERNSMASTER PATTERNS FOR MOLDS*

3D print highly accurate jewelry casting patterns forProduce 3D printed master patterns for RTV/silicone molds

intricate, detail rich feature pieces. With Figure 4’s fast
print speed and MicroPoint™ support structure, Figure 4

used in high volume, mass-production jewelry casting
workflows such as accessories and costume jewelry.

Jewelry offers superior casting quality and patterns readyfor casting in hours for customized pieces manufacturing
and short-run production.
•Manufacturing of high-end customized jewelry•Short-run jewelry production•

Optimized casting material yields minimal ash andresidue after burnout for easy casting•

No commitment to design or sunk investment in tooling

PROTOTYPING/FIT-CHECK MODELS*
Create accurate, fine detail prototypes of jewelry designs
for fittings and try-on, as well as to ensure the accuracy ofstone settings.

Figure 4 Jewelry
Ultra-fast and affordable jewelry 3D printerCapable of creating prints ready for casting or molding in hours, Figure 4 Jewelry enables jewelry manufacturers to accelerate timeto-market and quickly respond to market demands for custom jewelry or short-run production at low per piece cost.
A fast, digital workflow is responsive to any design modification, whether minor or drastic, so new designs can be delivered
within very short timeframes, enabling unparalleled flexibility.

FAST TURNAROUND, COST EFFECTIVE JEWELRY PRODUCTION
Print algorithms developed specifically for jewelry workflows enable Figure 4 Jewelry to print at 16mm/hr at 30µm layer—up tofour times faster than comparable printing systems for a full platform of rings.

HIGH QUALITY JEWELRY PATTERNS
Produce superior jewelry prints with best-in-class surface finish. Figure 4’s non-contact membrane technology, combined withexclusive MicroPoint support structures, minimizes part-to-support interaction, resulting in the smoothest sidewalls and finest
resolution for jewelry applications.

ULTRA-FINE DETAIL
Proprietary print build styles developed specifically for jewelry, both for thin, delicate geometries, as well as thickergeometries, enable optimized jewelry prints with detail for settings, sharp prongs, fine mesh and more.

REDUCED PRODUCTION LABOR COSTS
MicroPoint ultra-fine tip support structures enable both easy support removal and smoother surface finish, reducing
downstream labor costs and production time by minimizing polishing of support intersection points.
* Expected availability first half 2020.

Accessories
LC-3DPRINT BOX UV POST-CURING UNIT
The optional LC-3DPrint Box post-curing unit
is available for UV-curing parts, required toobtain the final material properties, and is therecommended UV-curing unit for Figure 4 printmaterials. The LC-3DPrint Box is a revolutionary
UV light box equipped with 12 UV light bulbs
strategically placed inside to ensure a product isilluminated from all sides, which results in a quick
and uniform curing cycle. This light-based UV

3D Systems’ Material Design Center has over 30 years
of proven R&D experience and process development
expertise. Designed for the jewelry manufacturing
professionals, Figure 4 materials for Figure 4 Jewelry areoptimized for jewelry design and production workflows.

JEWELRY PATTERNS FOR DIRECT CASTING
Figure 4 JCAST-GRN 10 produces accurate, reproducible,and highly detailed patterns for jewelry casting. This highcontrast green material is easy to cast with minimal ash
and residue, producing high quality jewelry pieces rapidly.

MASTER PATTERNS FOR MOLDS*
Print detailed, fine featured master patterns in amaterial optimized to withstand the heat and pressureof the mold making process used in high volume jewelry
casting workflows.

JEWELRY PROTOTYPING/FIT CHECK *This high-contrast prototyping material is being
developed to show fine detail in design for concept
models and try-ons, with the accuracy and fidelity toensure final fit of stone settings.

curing process takes minutes versus hours with
heat-based curing processes.

LC-3DMIXER FROM 3D SYSTEMSThe optional LC-3DMixer keeps yourFigure 4 materials ready for use at any timeat an optimum consistency. The LC-3DMixer
is a roller/tilting stirring device for mixing 3D
printing materials.
