Stratasys Objet350 Connex3 — Technical data

The Objet350 Connex3 is the colour version of the mid-size Connex platform and was added in November 2014. It blends three base materials at once, including cyan, magenta and yellow, and according to the data sheet combines up to 82 material properties in one part – colours, transparency and different Shore hardnesses. The build volume is 342 × 342 × 200 mm, printing in 16 or 30 µm. Compared with the Connex1 and Connex2 in the same housing, it adds colour and three-component blends; compared with the Objet500 Connex3, the build plate is smaller while machine size and weight are the same according to the data sheet. It suits coloured design models, packaging samples and demonstration models when parts rarely exceed 34 cm. Sold until the end of 2021.

When buying, ask for a colour test print across all channels plus the print-head history. UV lamps, material cabinet, pumps and software also matter: the data sheet lists Objet Studio with GrabCAD Print compatibility. Service contracts are still available; installation requires floor capacity for about 430 kg and climate control.
