Roland launches PB-600 and PB-400 ceramic Binder Jetting Additive Manufacturing machines
Roland DG Corporation, headquartered in Hamamatsu, Japan, has launched two new ceramic Binder Jetting Additive Manufacturing machines, the PB-600 and PB-400. Both machines are calibrated to use Brightorb ceramic powder, developed by AGC Ceramics Co., Ltd, Tokyo, Japan.
“The printers are capable of producing ceramic objects, even those with complex structures that could previously only be dreamed of, including artistic interior decor, ceramic panels and walls, and fine art replicas as well as arts and crafts, earthenware, and other items,” stated Ryugo Nimura, President, Global Sales and Marketing Division.

The PB-600 has a maximum work area of 595 x 600 x 250 mm, while the PB-400 has a maximum work area of 390 x 290 x 200 mm. These sizes enable one large object or several smaller ones to be produced at once.
Both ceramic AM machines include slicing software that converts 3D designs into output data. The machines can be operated from a monitor attached to the machine itself, making it easy to run.
“Since its establishment in 1981, Roland DG has been supporting the digitalisation of various industries by providing digital solutions that make it easy for anyone to create things,” Nimura continued. “The PB series allows users to create one-of-a-kind and premium 3D objects utilising the unique characteristics of 3D printing technology, and has the power to revolutionise conventional processes, expand the possibilities of creative expression, and bring new value and sales opportunities to the interior decoration, architecture, fine art, and arts and crafts industries, as well as educational and research institutions in history and culture. We will continue to contribute to the creation of an environment in which people can demonstrate their unlimited creativity through innovative technologies.”
