The size is enormous but is appropriate given the size of the machine. The printer is available with a build volume of either 355 mm x 254 mm x 254 mm, or 406 mm x 355 mm x 406 mm. Most of these access points are reserved for servicing, and the Fortus 400MC is designed so that the oven door opens easily for access to the print bed.įor such a large machine, the Fortus 400MC uses standard FDM technology with a meaty XY gantry running on belted servo stepper motors as well as a beefy Z- stage running on two belt driven lead screws powered by another servo stepper motor.
The chamber is fully enclosed for maximum temperature control and comes with a variety of doors to access different parts of the printer including a canister bay door, oven door, and more. It isn’t the prettiest printer around, but then again it doesn’t purport to be as it is definitely an industrial grade printer to be used in busy research and development labs rather than displayed among sleek home office devices. Size aside, the design of the Fortus 400MC is reminiscent of an MRI machine or large scale microscope with a clean, smooth contoured look complimented by a black and white color scheme. Suffice to say it won’t fit in most consumer workshops and if we are practical, needs a room all to itself. Rest assured this is not an error on our part the 400MC does indeed weigh upwards of a ton.
All rights reserved.Before we go any further, let’s specify that the Fortus 400MC is among the largest printers on the market with a footprint tallying up to a flabbergasting 1281 mm x 895.35 mm x 1962 mm with a total weight of 593 kg.
