The New J850 Pro: Faster, Easier and Better Without the Color

February 2, 2021 By Mark Dewey

The J850 has proven to be the designers most valuable tool for quickly getting better color, material, and finish to market faster. Unfortunately, engineers and their companies that have no need for color have either gone without the speed, ability, and quality of the J850, or they have had to spend extra money for a 3D printer that had more capability than they could use.

Not anymore, Stratasys has just announced a PolyJet solution for engineers—the J850 Pro.

Why J850 Pro?

  • 7 material choices, means less material changeover than previous PolyJet machines.
  • Print up to 4X faster than the historic Connex with Super High Speed (SHS) Mode.
  • 52% material cost reduction when using Draft Gray for concept models and 20% reduction in support material costs.
  • 192 nozzles on each print head (versus 96 in the Connex3) for improved print resolution.
  • High capacity, large build tray 490 x 390 x 200 mm.
  • All of these great features at 29% less expensive than the J850 Prime.
