Modix has developed three new and affordable 3D Printers that would further meet the requirements of the automotive and aerospace industries. Israël-based company has been inspired by the design of Modix BIG-60 Version 3.0, Modix BIG-120X and Modix 120Z, the most-known devices in its portfolio.
The three new 3D Printers include: Modix BIG-Meter, Modix BIG-180X and Modix BIG-40.
Price, main specifications and delivery
With a print volume of 1,800 x 1,000 x 600 mm, the Modix BIG-180X has unique extra wide width and is designed for the automotive industry. Available as from 12,000 USD, the dimensions of the 240 kg- 3D Printer are 2,170 x 1,070 x 1,430 mm.
The Modix BIG-Meter follows with a print volume of 1,000 x 1,000 x 1,000 mm at an introduction pre-order price of 10,500 USD. With printing dimensions of 1,300 x 1,470 x 1,830 mm, the 3D printer can serve both the needs of the automotive and aerospace industries.
As for the Modix BIG-40, it features a print volume of 400 x 400 X 800 mm, with 870 x 720 x 1,520 mm as dimensions. Less expensive than the others (4,500 USD Printer), this model is suitable for the production of tall and narrow objects as seen in the prosthetic sector.
Their similarities
All new printers are delivered as self-assembly kits and feature premium components as the rest of the Modix’s 3D printers including: E3D Print head, DUET3D Controller, HIWIN Motion Rails, IGUS wiring, Gates belts, Meanwell power supply and more. Available add-ons include: 3 optional hot-end configurations: E3D V6 detailed, E3D-Volcano High flow, and E3D Super-Volcano for super high flow rates, air filter device, high temperature hotend and more.
The new printers offer the same set of advanced features as presented earlier this year with Modix BIG-60 version 3 including: 32bit controller, WiFi & web access, 7” Touchscreen, closed enclosure made of aluminum composite, leveling casters, advanced dual E3D Aero extruders and dual high flow E3D Volcano hotends as default. Furthermore, these models offer several key reliability features including power-off resume, filament runout sensor, 100 probing points based automatic bed leveling, stall detection and more.
This is just the beginning of the adventure for the company as they are more and more gaining popularity in the 3D Printing industry. “Despite the Covid-19 crisis, Modix never stopped its services and R&D for a minute and the result is in front of you. The demand for our printers is growing as the recognition for the quality of products and services is spreading. These newly introduced products are only yet another milestone in our road-map to provide an end to end solution within the 3D printing market. Several additional new models at various sizes will be available soon”, concludes Mr. Shachar Gafni, Modix CEO.
