REHOVOT, Israel, March 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Objet Geometries Ltd., the innovation leader in 3D printing, today announced the newest member of its well-known Vero family of opaque model materials, FullCure(R)850 VeroGray. The new material provides excellent dimensional stability, great detail visualization and surface quality. In addition it provides all the benefits of the Vero family, including the Vero family trait of a long shelf life. VeroGray is supported by all Eden(TM) family printers and by the Connex500(TM) printer and is available now.

Durable parts ideal for engineering simulation and models in transit
A unique combination of low Water Absorption value (ASTM D570-98 24Hr) and Heat Deflection Temperature (ASTM D-648) enables VeroGray models to maintain their dimensional stability in changing environmental conditions such as transit.
VeroGray also offers excellent Flexural Strength (95 MPa) and Flexural Modulus along with Tensile Strength of 60 MPa making it ideal for engineering simulation and structural testing. With the superb surface quality and detail visualization of the opaque, rigid VeroGray material, models look and feel like molded plastic parts. This is valuable whenever plastic simulation is required, such as for toys, automotive products, consumer goods and electronics, medical equipment, piping and more.
Fit and form testing capabilities, are inherent to Objet PolyJet(TM) and PolyJet Matrix(TM) printed parts due to the parts' smooth surfaces and fine details. VeroGray further enhances our customers' ability to evaluate their designs by enabling rigorous engineering simulation, said Adina Shorr, CEO of Objet Geometries. FullCure(R)850 VeroGray is supported by the complete range of Eden printers as well as the Connex500, allowing mechanical engineers and designers in various markets and industries to create functional prototypes requiring the simulation of plastic.
FullCure850 VeroGray is available in 3.6kg and 2kg cartridges.
