1000’s of corporations world wide depend on 3D printing service bureaus when catering to the wants of their prospects. Contemplating this, the significance of sturdy and dependable methods can’t be overstated. Enjoying instantly into this demand for high-quality 3D printing is INTAMSYS, a number one industrial additive manufacturing firm—notably with the newest FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO, which was launched globally on September twenty sixth.
Constructing on the stable foundations of the unique FUNMAT PRO 310, probably the most standard “industrial desktop methods” on the planet, the FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO is a high-speed Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) 3D printer designed particularly for industrial functions and small-batch manufacturing—assembly stringent precision, materials efficiency, repeatability, effectivity, and security necessities.
The FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO’s industrial design ensures lengthy durations of high-intensity, steady manufacturing. This extends the profitability window properly past the preliminary funding, offering even essentially the most demanding prospects, similar to 3D printing service bureaus, with ongoing income streams.
Let’s check out a number of the most essential options.
Excessive-speed manufacturing
The system affords as much as eight materials course of packages particularly optimized for velocity, able to reaching a manufacturing capability of 500-1,000g/day (verified by greater than 240,000 hours of production-grade printing). Nevertheless, with the added flexibility of duplicate and mirror printing modes, customers can successfully double this output. It has been upgraded to a mean velocity of 250mm/s, and a most acceleration of 10,000mm/s². All that is enabled by an in-house-developed printing management mainboard and superior movement management algorithms, which guarantee each excessive dimensional precision and superior floor end, even at such excessive speeds.
The FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO helps a variety of supplies, together with PPA-CF, PPA-GF, PC, PC-FR, PC/PBT, ABS-HS, PA12-CF, and PLA. INTAMSYS continues to develop its library of fabric course of packages, with prospects benefiting from automated updates and free upgrades as new packages are launched.
As much as 100℃ thermostatic chamber
The system’s 100℃ thermostatic chamber, engineered to deal with the challenges of warping and unstable shaping, ensures uniform temperature distribution with fluctuations of lower than 5%, ensuing within the straightforward processing of demanding supplies like PC (polycarbonate), a fabric recognized for its excessive shrinkage and sensitivity to temperature. This exact management minimizes inside stress, enhances interlayer bonding, and reduces thermal deformation.
The excessive chamber temperature additionally considerably enhances the mechanical properties of supplies like ABS, the place tensile power has been proven to extend threefold at elevated temperatures. By sustaining a persistently excessive temperature all through the printing course of, the FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO ensures repeatable, uniform outcomes, that are vital for sustaining a provide chain reliant on exterior 3D printing service bureaus.
Materials versatility
In terms of materials choices, the system affords distinctive versatility, permitting customers to print a variety of high-performance thermoplastics with out the necessity to change its 350℃ nozzle, which helps the printing of robust, heat-resistant supplies like PPS, PPS-CF, and PPS-GF. Its potential to course of engineering thermoplastics like PC, PC-FR, PC/PBT, ABS-HS, PA12-CF, and plenty of others, makes it well-suited for functions in automotive, electronics, normal manufacturing, and nearly each industrial area. Moreover, the system can print with TPU95A, for versatile elements, in addition to extra mainstream, biodegradable supplies like PLA. It is usually absolutely appropriate with open-source filaments, providing customers the liberty to make use of third-party supplies.
INTAMSYS’ FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO’s IDEX (Unbiased Twin Extruder) permits 4 distinct printing modes: mirror, duplicate, dual-material, and assist materials printing. This characteristic is especially helpful for printing elements with complicated geometries, because it permits for the usage of engineering supplies together with water-soluble or easy-peel helps, leading to simplified post-processing.
Scalable manufacturing made straightforward
Clever IDEX auto Z-leveling and mesh leveling system for seamless setup, and distant networking capabilities make INTAMSYS’ system unintimidating and straightforward to function.
The INTAM Field, a totally sealed enclosure with a reusable molecular sieve, ensures low humidity for as much as 20 days, serving to to keep up optimum print high quality for moisture-sensitive supplies like nylon.
The FUNMAT 310 NEO integrates seamlessly into Trade 4.0 environments because of its embedded system, which supplies a user-friendly interface, process queue administration, and customary API interfaces for easy MES integration.
The FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO’s mixture of options ensures steady, high-quality efficiency for individuals who can not afford to compromise on reliability on the planet of fast-paced digital manufacturing.
