Case Study: AIC Technology achieves vivid, true-to-life custom figurines with Stratasys J826

Making vivid customized figurines with the Stratasys J826 PolyJet printer

AIC Technology Co., Ltd., a 3D printing service provider founded by Jiang Yi‑Min and partners, began offering customized full‑color figurines but struggled with their initial ColorJet Printing (CJP) workflow: prints were fragile, surface detail and color fidelity were poor, post‑processing was lengthy and labor‑intensive, and maintenance costs (including frequent print‑head replacements) eroded margins. Seeking a better option, AIC engaged Stratasys to address quality, speed, and cost issues.

Stratasys recommended and AIC implemented the Stratasys J826 PolyJet 3D printer (using soluble SUP705 support), delivering high‑fidelity, PANTONE‑validated color, 0.1 mm accuracy on small models, and easier post‑processing. The switch made figurines sturdy and true to the original, cut per‑piece costs by about 74%, reduced print time to roughly 3 hours for a 10 cm figure with ~30 minutes post‑processing, and enabled customer delivery within two days—significantly improving throughput, reliability, and profitability for AIC.
