An upgrade that increases feature detail and surface-finish smoothness for two T-Class rapid prototyping systems, the FDM Titan and FDM Vantage, models with high-performance thermoplastic. An update for FDM Titan significantly improves the quality of its highest model-resolution setting, known as '5 mil'. The 5-mil feature is available for use with ABS plastic modeling material. The update brings the modeling resolution into a similar quality range as the high-end FDM Maxum system. The feature is also available as an upgrade for FDM Vantage system users wishing to increase modeling resolution with ABS plastic. It represents a 50 percent increase over the previous ABS modeling resolution of 0.01 in. The improvement means Vantage users can build models with much finer features — as fine as 0.02 in. on a functional prototype.
