The Solidscape® R66®+ is targeted at the custom retail jeweler who, in addition to purchasing and marketing jewelry and related goods and services, produces pieces or a line of custom jewelry. The R66+ is also used extensively by studio jewelers (normally appointment only, no storefront, custom pieces only).

The R66+ reduces your costs and time-to-market by translating 3D CAD designs from popular jewelry design software into high quality casting patterns. Grow models of your most intricate and complex designs, many of which could not be produced by hand crafting or milling systems, Be assured that the results will be geometrically accurate and 100 % castable using standard jewelry investment casting techniques. Undercuts, overhangs and cavities are no problem because of Solidscape's dissolvable support material structure. The R66+ operates on standard current,uses non-toxic build materials and has a small footprint making it truly office friendly. The consumables are inexpensive to use when compared to other model building system technologies.
