Have you ever seen a bull in a china shop?
Instead of trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, let Rapid Shape provide for you the specialized tools to fulfill your individual requirements.
Our 3D printers cater to a wide range of industries and applications and provide a perfect result. Discover our S20+ and S30+ in fine, regular, large.
WITH THE PRODUCT, SERVICE AND KNOWLEDGE ADVANTAGES THAT WE OFFER, LET YOUR IDEAS BE IMPLEMENTED BRILLIANTLY.
A Force (Feedback) to be reckoned with
Rapid Shape knows that power is only powerful when you know how to use it. Our patented Force Feedback technology measures and responds to the forces applied to the part during 3D printing. This means using less supports during printing, resulting in precise removal and less preparation.
The final product is accurate, beautiful surfaces for your jewellery prints.
Time is money
Time is a commodity that we take seriously. Jewellery customers need both speed and accuracy to be competitive.
Rapid Shape has developed 3D printers that creates precise prints that require a minimal amount of time. Your rings can be printed in as fast as 45 minutes (depending on printing material and design complexity).
Simply Amazing

The end justifies the means
A short post-processing time means more pieces to go out the door. We have tested our 3D printers in a validated process with a variety of materials to ensure accurate print results and high repeatability.
The automated washing cyles ensure precise gold weights and even better casting thru curing under vacuum. This means that you will be spending less time and getting more results.
Go with the flow
Proper workflow increases efficiency and decreases complexity. We provide our customers with a one-stop solution for printing and post-processing. Start the process with our 3D printers, then post-process in our RS wash and RS cure, which can be inter-connected with your Rapid Shape printer.
Finally, finish your jewellery in our partner Schultheiss‘ heating and casting technologies; tested to provide the highest quality for your jewellery needs.
We won't let you down

RS cureSafety and speed throughout the entire production process: better casting results through curing under vacuum.
The RS cure unit offers a validated material curing in just about 6-10 minutes. The illumination system cures homogeneously from all sides by powerful LEDs in combination with heating and vacuum (patents pending). This process eliminates remaining monomers that otherwise cause investment breakdown in the firing process. The radiation covers the UVA and UVB spectrum.
