We believe in a reality where digital and physical worlds are seamlessly interlinked. A dimension where 3D printed products can be created without making sacrifices on quality, speed, size, or materials. Inspired by organic structures that occur in nature and growth patterns catalyzed by the sun, Orange Maker (OM) has developed an advanced 3D printing ecosystem which finally makes end-to-end flexible manufacturing possible.
What will 3d printing look like in the future?
OM is the inventor of
3D printing with rotation, mirroring
natural growth patterns
+ inspired by the sun and
the golden ratio.
As 3D printing adoption continues,
the manufacturing industry
has begun shifting toward
Heliolithography by OM.
In 2012, OM invented Heliolithography. “Helio” references the mythical Sun God, “Helios”, and helical structures similar to organic growth patterns found in nature. In 2014, OM announced 3D printing via rotation to the world. As the world begins to understand the future benefits of 3D printing, its true capabilities of additive manufacturing are now beginning to shine.
Inspired by the golden ratio + biomimicry, OM harnesses the power of UV light leveraging advancements photonics and optics. We pioneered printing in radials while many companies are still focused on 3D printing layer-by-layer structures on the cartesian coordinate system.
As the 3D printing industry evolved + matured into a global opportunity, OM remained in R&D designing the next generation of manufacturing technology. We are now positioned to license + partner with synergistic groups who seek to unlock the benefits of 3D printing using rotation.
When we first announced OM in 2014,
the world was starting to understand the benefits of 3D printing.
OM was years ahead of the curve:
Now, the world is rapidly accelerating the shift to “Industry 4.0".
Photosynthesis™ process is an advanced technology that uses UV light projection, our zero-adhesion cure method, and specialized liquid resins to produce parts with superior mechanical properties, resolution, and surface finish. OM’s rotational 3D printing process allows engineers and designers to mass produce end-use parts faster, and enables geometries that simply cannot be created with traditional manufacturing techniques.
The HL process is a pioneering technology which was developed + patented globally for high-throughput production and system scalability in commercial / industrial manufacturing.
THE FUTURE of 3D PRINTING, “POWERED BY OM”
CREATING PARTS AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT
Backed by years of scientific research, OM has perfected a photo-reactive process that cures liquid plastic into solid parts using ultraviolet light designed into an array. It works by projecting light through the cure window into UV-curable resin.
As a sequence of UV images are projected, the material solidifies and the rotational builds platform builds continuously along a helical pitch (ascending or descending) as vertical growth occurs.
Core System Components:
Rotational Build Platform
Formulated Resins
Zero-Adhesion Build Area
High-Resolution Light Engine
Protecting Supply Chains With De-Centralized Manufacturing
Eliminate Outsourcing to Produce Parts Domestically
Large-Scale Production of 3D Printed Parts
Mass Customization / “On-Demand” Manufacturing
The OM ecosystem is now being deployed into a broad range of industries and applications via licensing and strategic partnerships. First, tell us about your application: Let's Get Started.
