The MOVA AtomForm Palette 300 debuted at RAPID + TCT 2026 as a proposal to reduce waste in multicolor 3D printing. Unlike traditional systems that purge filaments and generate mountains of plastic, this equipment uses 12 dedicated nozzles. The OmniElement system assigns one nozzle per filament and switches between them without purging, achieving up to 90% less waste and 50% faster transitions.
Twelve nozzles for a single purpose 🎯
The key to the Palette 300 lies in its OmniElement printhead, which integrates twelve independent nozzles. Each one activates only when its specific color is needed, eliminating the purge cycle that characterizes single-nozzle printers. The system manages hot filament changes, reducing transition time to less than a second. Additionally, the control electronics allow precise synchronization, preventing colors from mixing in the final model. The result is a cleaner and more efficient process.
Goodbye to the mountain of colorful spaghetti 🍝
Anyone who has seen a multicolor printer purging knows it looks like a psychedelic noodle factory. The Palette 300 arrives to tell that mess: you are no longer welcome. Now, instead of having a bucket of plastic as a souvenir of each color change, you only get the part you requested. Of course, if you miss watching waste pile up, you can always play a video on loop. The rest is printing without guilt.
