Why a Large 3D Printer?
Printing large models as one object makes them stronger and saves time on post processing. Use cases include:
- Customized large enclosures
- Manufacturing jigs
- Prototyping
- Cast molds
- Composite plugs
- Batch production - Modix 3D printers are capable of printing multiple small items in a single sequenced 3D print job.
Heavy Duty Design
Printing quality and reliability are determined not only by the quality of the machine’s components, yet also by its design.
Modix machine design guidelines:
- Robustness of chassis and motion system
- Reduced electromagnetic noise
- Safe operation and safe assembly
- Easy assembly
- Easy maintenance
- Time between maintenance cycles
- Long-lasting calibration
Self Assembly
Modix 3D printers are delivered as self-assembly kits.
The advantages for the customers are:
- In-depth knowledge of the machine
- Easier to customize, maintain and upgrade
- Independency
- Cost saving on assembly and shipment
- Compact packing allows flexibility in selecting assembly location
- Great learning experience
Online assembly guides contain:
- Detailed textual and visual step-by-step instructions
- Video demonstration for every step
- Rotatable online 3D models of sub-assemblies
Modix 3D printers are modular by nature. Users can easily change the configuration of the printer based on a large selection of add-ons including:
- Three different hot-ends to select from including: E3D Volcano (default), E3D V6 for detailed printing and E3D Super-Volcano for high flow extrusion rates.
- Active air filter add-on that circulates the chamber air through a filtering system including a HEPA filter for small particles and active Carbon for removal of fumes.
- High Temperature by using the PT-100 sensor add-on.
Modix 3D printers are designed for future upgrades and new technologies. When a new version is released, an upgrade is offered to our customers.
As creators, we believe that products should be designed to serve for long period of time, not to be replaced when a new model is coming out.
Generation 4 - What's new?
Generation 4 widens Modix’s offering by introducing new capabilities such as printing models with internal geometries, faster printing speed, reduced post process time and higher reliability. With generation 4, all Modix printers are now shipped with the new Griffin print head, clog and crash detectors.
Griffin Print Head
Griffin print head offers high printing quality, impact resist, easy swap and higher printing temperatures than before.
Clog Detection
Reliability sensors suite that is designed to save print-jobs on time. It can detect filament run-out, under extrusion and clogs.
Auto Z Offset Calibration Tool
Comprehensive set of automatic calibration tools including: bed tilt calibration, bed leveling, gantry alignment and Z offset calibration.
