DWS SYSTEMS - Digital Wax Systems - is a Italian manufacturer of 3D Printers and liquid acrylic resins for stereolithography technology. Company is focused on three kinds of markets: jewelry & fashion, dental and industrial. DWS produce medium size, aforable 3D printers for home users and small companies. DWS is a manufacturer of rapid prototyping systems for jewelry companies, automotive, medical equipment and medical applications, aviation, industrial design and many others. DWS SYSTEMS machines work with dedicated software, firmware and resins.

History: DWS Systems was founded by Maurizio Costabeber in Vicenza in 2007 after long experience in 3D Printing business. DWS produced 3D printers, entirely made in Italy, that led to the fulfillment of the first Digital Wax machine, and thus the company name: DWS - Digital Wax Systems.

From beginning DWS started to produce 3D Printers for jewelry market and systematically enlarged the portfolio of jewelery machines and started producing dental and industrial line of 3D printers. At the same time DWS Research and Development department worked for new kind of acrylic resins to made different types of photopolymers for other markets like jewelry, industry and dental. Now they produce more than 40 resins and materials.

In 2014 DWS showed first affordable 3D Printer - XFAB that began selling in 2016. From January 2016 DWS move to new headquarters in Thiene.

Today DWS exports theyr products to more than 60 countries.

Technology: DWS produce 3D printers in stereolithography technology. Machine is controlled by dedicated software that is compatible with 3D Cad system. Laser source emits ultraviolet rays which solidifys layer upon layer of photosensitive resin. By means of a vertical positioning device, the modeling platform base rises up for a measure corresponding to the thickness of the solidified layer. Motion capabilities with a synchronized laser allows the creation of exceptionally complex and precise three-dimensional prototypes.

DWS Stereolithography technology is characterized by innovations such as transparent resin tank which allows the laser beam to pass through it, and a laser scanning unit placed directly under the tank. These innovations compared to conventional stereolithography make the whole process more flexible and economical.

DWS have: - more than 30 patents: know-how, technology and design.
 * more than 20 years of experience in sea R&D
 * innovative BluEdge laser system
