MakerBot METHOD 3D Printer Carbon Fiber Edition

EAN: 812510032309

Print engineering-grade composite parts with the METHOD 3D Printer Carbon Fiber Edition from MakerBot. Using carbon fiber reinforced nylon materials, you can produce strong, heat-resistant components that are optimized for structural applications and metal replacements. This unique industrial composition makes this 3D printer ideal for anyone who wishes to produce durable manufacturing-grade parts with advanced engineering materials.

The METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition is an open platform allowing you to use engineering materials such as SR-30 to create advanced components for industrial use. A heated chamber ensures your parts are stronger during the printing process, ensuring their capabilities in the field. Additionally, you can save time when designing with automated workflow and CAD integration, making printing easier and more efficient. The METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition is compatible with Windows and macOS X operating systems and supports USB and Wi-Fi connections.

METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition

The METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition utilizes a dual extruder design, using Model 1 and Support 2 extruders, allowing you to create complex designs using multiple types of materials for enhanced quality. The extruders have a 0.4mm nozzle diameter which prints at a maximum layer resolution of 400 microns. The 7.5 x 7.5 x 7.75 build volume size is suitable for most engineering-grade parts.

Material Sensing

Keep track of how much material you have with MakerBot s Smart Spool technology. Not only does the printer keep track of remaining material, but it also knows what color and type of filament you are using, thanks to an RFID sensor built right into the printer. Additionally, the METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition also includes additional sensors that detects temperature, humidity, jams, calibration, and when doors and lids are open or closed.

Industrial Construction

MakerBot designed the METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition to withstand hours of operation, putting their products through rigorous testing phases equivalent to 220,000 total testing hours. The aluminum die-cast base, extruded aluminum uprights, and steel weldment gantry frame are made for long-lasting operation and stability. The temperature control circulating heated chamber assists in the production of your creations, maintaining proper heat levels. The flexible steel build plate and reusable grip surface gives you a strong foundation for your creations during the printing process.

Specialty Materials

The METHOD Carbon Fiber Edition 3D printer uses a multitude of materials and supports some of the most durable filaments on the market. Use MakerBot precision materials like ABS, ASA, PLA, Tough, PVA, and SR-30. MakerBot also offers support for specialty materials such as NYLON and PETG.
