German corporations Reichenbacher Hamuel and Multec have collaborated to develop and launch the M1000. The brand new large-format industrial 3D printer brings collectively the experience of two worlds by teaming Multec’s patented HexaMove 6-fold printing head with a high-end machine from the particular machine producer Reichenbacher. This technique additionally permits the printing of ULTEM, PEEK and different plastics that mix distinctive power with temperature resistance. ULTEM polymers are additionally identified to own a excessive impression power and good resistance to chemical compounds.
For Reichenbacher Hamuel this marks one more enterprise into the world of 3D printing, as an additional demonstration that the know-how is now interesting to an more and more giant variety of established corporations. Earlier initiatives included a variety of metallic 3D printers and built-in unpacking/depowdering techniques developed with Solukon.
The M1000 is designed by Reichenbacher Hamuel and Multec for high-tech industries that require giant, printed parts fabricated from high-performance plastics like ULTEM. It meets the rigorous calls for of commercial machine building with options like spacious constructing dimensions, wonderful insulation, heating capabilities, and superior printing head know-how, guaranteeing economical manufacturing.
Industries reminiscent of aerospace, medical engineering, railroads, and army favor these supplies for technical functions. Parts like wheel housings, air ducts, and prototypes, particularly within the engine sector of the protection business, require high-temperature resistance (over 150 °C) and robust mechanical properties (density, elasticity, and yield stress).
The M1000 boasts distinctive insulation, efficient heating of the printing house, and highly effective cooling of the printing head and drive parts. The constructing platform might be heated to 250 °C, and the constructing chamber to 350 °C, stopping stress in high-performance plastics processed with hotends as much as 400 °C. Cooling of all parts, particularly people who would fail at excessive temperatures, ensures the machine’s longevity.
The patented multi-printing head affords flexibility, precision, and effectivity, just like fashionable machine instruments. Filament modifications happen routinely through {a magazine}, the place the printing head features like a tool-changing head. Multec’s patented nozzle closing know-how prevents dripping, eliminating the necessity for cleansing cycles and permitting steady operation. This journal helps varied materials mixtures and totally different nozzle varieties and sizes in a single printing course of.
The dimensions of the set up house is essential for high-tech industries. Massive parts are in excessive demand in sectors like orthopedics, aviation, and rail automobiles. Printing bigger parts in a single piece eliminates the necessity for extra becoming a member of processes. The M1000’s constructing house measures 1,000 x 1,000 x 1,000 mm (W x L x H), and its high-speed printing head with 6 hotends produces 3 to five occasions greater quantity flows.
The M1000 industrial printer is extremely automated and constructed to the best mechanical engineering requirements, providing manufacturing flexibility, brief lead occasions, and low funding prices, particularly by way of vitality costs. It will possibly function 24/7 for prototyping and small collection manufacturing of enormous parts. Additionally it is appropriate for producing casting molds, autoclave instruments, and functions in instrument, ship, plane, or automobile building.
