Providing 360° HD colour while reducing operating costs by 20%, the Mcor IRIS HD 3D printer has been introduced by Mcor Technologies. Built on new algorithms and a newly designed carbide cutting tip, the printer makes full-colour detail and text on 3D printed models sharper than ever to deliver a photorealistic appearance around the full geometry of the model and better communication of granular information.

The device uses less ink, making the tip last longer, which allows it to deliver a 20% reduction in the cost to 3D print a model. The company’s materials already cost 10-20% of other 3D printing technologies, saving customers thousands of dollars and providing greater access to the technology.

To provide accurate WYSIWYG colour 3D printing, the Mcor IRIS employs a global-standard ICC colour map. The new carbide blade used by the printer is also available for Mcor’s monochrome printer, the Mcor Matrix 300+.

Mcor 3D printers create complex, durable and stable physical 3D models from layers of paper printed with ink and bonded together. The models can be tapped, threaded, hinged and made water resistant. Users can print hollows and moving parts, and recycle used models for sustainability.

“Crisply defined colour and rock-bottom operating costs are critical for manufacturers, schools, service bureaus, architectural firms and others who need to 3D print a high number of realistic models,” said Dr. Conor MacCormack, Co-Founder and CEO, Mcor Technologies. “Our selective deposition lamination paper-based 3D printing technology has always offered the industry’s highest-resolution colour at the lowest operating costs. Now, with IRIS HD, we’re providing even greater access to truly photorealistic colour 3D printing.”
