New 3D Printing Technology by Axtra3D Debuts at Formnext 2021

Axtra3D, founded by veteran innovators in the 3D printing industry, unveiled its Hybrid PhotoSynthesis (HPS) technology and Lumia 3D printer at Formnext, in Frankfurt, Germany, in late November. 

The startup's new technology combines the following benefits: 

• Reportedly surpasses the resolution of digital light processing (DLP) / liquid crystal display (LCD) while offering the print area of industrial grade stereolithography (SLA) 
• Prints at the speed of DLP/LCD while at least matching the surface quality of SLA, the company notes 
• Simultaneously enables continuous printing and isotropic part performance

“We truly believe HPS has the power to transform 3D printing and our experience at Formnext confirms that this technology is an industry game-changer,” states Axtra3D CEO Gianni Zitelli.
