HP’s 3D technology launched in India
January 17, 2018
The OEM’s Multi Jet Fusion 3D Printing Solution has been made available in India, starting from Rs2.5 crore (€319,817).
At the end of last year, The Recycler reported on HP’s announcement that it would soon be selling Next-Gen 3D printers in India.
Now, as MoneyControl reveals, that ambition has been made concrete, with the launch of the OEM’s Multi Jet Fusion 3D Printing Solution, which has been designed to “tap into sectors like manufacturing, education and defence.”
Imaginarium and Adroitec have been announced as the first official resellers of the technology in the country.
“Industry 4.0 is being impacted by a range of technologies — Internet of Things, Cloud etc. The launch of our 3D printers in India comes at a time when the government is pushing manufacturing in India and we see a lot of potential for our printers,” said HP India Managing Director Sumeer Chandra.
The price tag for the 3D Printing Solution “includes pre and post processing unit, the 3D printer and initial consumables” as well as a service contract and 3-year maintenance. Currently, the printers “use plastic as raw material”, but HP has revealed plans to use colour and metals in its 3D devices in future.
