Industrial silicone 3D printing specialist Lynxter is expanding the capabilities of its S300X – LIQ21 | LIQ11 3D printer. Two new modules expand the S300X ecosystem: the NEST – GEL option and the NEST – POWDER option, the latter developed in partnership with 3Deus Dynamics.
These solutions enable silicone 3D printing for thin-walled parts using a clean, solvent-free system that is easy to integrate into industrial, medical, and research projects according to the company.
This new approach to immersion printing uses a support material (gel or powder) that fully envelops the part during fabrication. Lynxter claims it also enables a significant productivity gain in certain use cases by substantially increasing the number of printable parts within the build volume through 3D nesting.
Thomas Batigne, CEO of Lynxter said: “The NEST modules embody our open, modular, and innovative philosophy. By providing users with these two new manufacturing options for existing machines, we aim to unlock the technical and economic viability of new applications such as the production of medical devices (anatomical models, orthoses, etc.) or industrial protection systems (bellows, impact absorbers, and more). These two pragmatic tools will soon be available on the market’s best-selling technical elastomer 3D printer, recognised for its outstanding price-to-performance ratio and the expertise it represents.”
The NEST – POWDER option, featuring Dynamic Molding technology, enables the production of soft silicone parts with complex designs, using reusable, water-soluble supports.
Lynxter says this solution is particularly suited for medical applications, such as anatomical models, standardised training models, or simulators for medical device testing. It fully leverages the capabilities of the S300X – LIQ21 | LIQ11, delivering medical-grade silicone 3D printing through a simple, safe, and plug & play process.
The NEST – GEL solution enables the production of ultrathin, smooth, and complex silicone parts, such as thin walls, lattice structures, or industrial bellows. The support material, in this case gel, is reusable and fully water-rinsable,.
Compatible with the S300X – LIQ21 | LIQ11, the company says this option upgrades the printer into a versatile machine, capable of processing high-performance, industrial-grade silicones.
“By combining Lynxter’s machine expertise with our own materials and process know-how, we have jointly developed a turnkey solution to make our patented Dynamic Molding technology accessible to a wider audience. The NEST – POWDER option exemplifies our shared ambition: to make 3D printing a truly agile, fast, precise, and adaptable manufacturing tool, capable of meeting the highest standards,” said Julien Barthès, CEO of 3Deus Dynamics
Lynxter will be showcasing these new developments at Formnext 2025, Hall 11.1 – C69.
