3D printing for packaging designers and manufacturers

From consumer goods and cosmetics to food and beverages – packaging is a serious business. Creating eye-catching, sustainable and cost-effective packaging usually takes weeks or months. With in-house 3D printing, you can significantly reduce this time while enabling more thorough evaluation, feedback and quality control.

The Nexa3D printers are able to shorten these times exponentially (in the truest sense of the word).

You’ve probably heard that 3D printing is suitable for the rapid creation of prototypes, but you’ve never seen such speed. Prints the size of a 2-liter bottle in 1 hour. Small and medium-sized parts can be produced in the time it takes to make a cup of coffee.

Packaging prototypes have to look good to be effective. Layer lines can be distracting and sanding is laborious. Print smooth surfaces in production quality thanks to 4K antialiasing and subpixel resolution.

ABS and polypropylene are two common materials. Our xABS and xPP are near perfect resin matches for property performance while mimicking the look and feel – so you can actually test your prototypes and they look good too.

Are you ready to test your molds in large quantities? Or do you want to go into production even faster? Now you can print your molds from high-temperature materials like xPEEK147 and produce thousands of blow-molded or injection-molded parts.
