The brief
- Vista deposits polymers in 20-40 micron layers using 63M droplets per layer with UV curing and real-time vision correction.
- Multi-material printing handles complex internal channels for medical, aerospace and industrial parts.
- Saint-Gobain deployed first commercial system in 2022; printing services launched June 2023.
Technical approach
VCJ Technology
Vision-controlled droplet jetting
Jetting deposits photopolymer per layer, then 3D vision scans. AI feedback adjusts layers to correct errors for precision prints.
Materials
Production-grade polymers
Vista uses high-performance polymers for end-use parts, not prototypes, supporting over-molding and complex channels.
Scale
Volume manufacturing
The system is designed for production rates suitable for medium to high-volume manufacturing, with minimal post-processing labor.
