To expand the possibilities in jewelry manufacturing, AM solutions provider 3D Systems introduces a new wax 3D printer. Named MJP 300W Plus, the machine is said to deliver extremely intricate wax patterns, which are used for the casting of precious metal jewelry.
“Additive manufacturing gives artisans unprecedented creative freedom,” said Marty Johnson, vice president, product & technical fellow, 3D Systems. “The MJP 300W Plus empowers jewelry makers with a complete, integrated system—including materials, 3D printing technology, software, and built-in application expertise—that enhances productivity and ensures reliable, high-quality results. With this new solution, 3D Systems is demonstrating our commitment to giving our customers the tools they need to innovate, scale, and achieve agility with ease.”

Key features of the MJP 300W Plus 3D printer
The MJP 300W Plus is designed with data security in mind. All pattern design files are maintained locally as opposed to in the Cloud to protect valuable intellectual property. Additionally, this printer is designed to meet the requirements of a variety of Cybersecurity Standards that will take effect in 2027 in both the United States and Europe. As a result, jewelry manufacturers can be confident not only in the safety of their IP, but also in their business operations.
Integral to the design of the MJP 300W Plus are enhancements to the print modes available in 3D Sprint®. The printer includes three modes—High Resolution, Premium, and Standard—that are optimized for 30% productivity increases, 20% lower overall material usage, and improved surface finish enabled by the company’s proprietary Surface Enhance™ feature, as compared to other available wax pattern solutions.
The availability of three print modes offers improved flexibility in build planning for both day and night shifts to match the level of speed, geometric complexity, and surface quality required by all design styles.
According to the company, the new 3D printer would be a great combination with its VisiJet® 100% wax materials. To reduce product costs, 3D Systems’ print process engineers have enabled the use of break-away supports that reduce required post-processing time by up to 60% and support material waste by up to 50%. This innovation reduces costs, improves throughput and minimizes environmental impact compared to current manufacturing methods.
“The precision and reliability of 3D Systems’ new MJP 300W Plus jewelry printer has significantly advanced our production process and transformed how we design and produce custom pieces,” said Mustafa Cebeci, Cebeci Gold, solution partner of EMA Jewelry. “The MJP 300W Plus allows us to achieve complex geometries and fine details with faster printer speeds and reduced material waste—giving us higher efficiency and reduced costs.”
Producers of wax jewelry patterns—from high-volume manufacturers to custom jewelry makers—can achieve new designs, more efficiently and with much greater design freedom.
