Axtra3D offers two X1 Series vat 3D printers for pre-order
Axtra3D has announced the launch of two X1 Series 3D printing systems, powered by the company’s patented Hybrid PhotoSynthesis (HPS) technology.
It follows news earlier this month that Axtra3D had successfully closed its Series A financing round of 6.25 million USD.
The Revox X1 and Lumia X1 3D printers are being introduced at the upcoming Formnext Event and are available for pre-order. Lumia X1 is Axtra3D’s production-grade HPS offering, while Revox X1 represents the company’s Digital Light Processing (DLP) budget option.
Lumia X1 harnesses the HPS capabilities to enable 24/7 lights-out production. The TruLayer capability improves production economics, repeatability, and printingability. Lumia X1 boasts a larger build than any 4K DLP printer, and a 45-micron resolution. It also uses Intelli-Cartridge to simplify material handling. Intelli-Cartridge actively disperses material to the vat and collects the returned material. It also offers heating, agitation and filtering mechanisms. Axtra3D’s TruLayer technology, meanwhile, works to quickly detach active print layers from the vat membrane and enabled the printing of highly viscous resins. Other benefits of TruLayer include ‘no limitations to the cross sections being printed’ and a non-degenerative vat membrane.’
While the Revox X1 doesn’t leverage HPS technology, it does implement TruLayer. Axtra3D says this platform brings ‘industry-leading DLP print speed’ and ‘best-in-class feature details and good surface quality’ at an affordable price. The Revox X1 has the same build volume as the Lumia X1 (265 x150 x600 mm), and customers who want to use HPS technology can upgrade from the budget option to HPS-powered Lumia X1.
“Last year at Formnext 2021, we were pleased to unveil Axtra3D as a company and share a first glimpse into the future of the Lumia 3D printer,” commented Axtra3D founder and CEO Gianni Zitelli. “This year, the team and I are delighted to introduce not one but two industrial 3D printers ready to take on legacy limitations and blow them out of the water. Our market-ready portfolio is a force to be reckoned as we take vat fotopolymerisation up a notch. We understand the challenges. It’s time to transcend limits. The technologies this team has developed are nothing short of awesome in the real sense of the word; I’m truly awed by what we’ve created and we’re only getting started.”
Axtra3D will exhibit at Formnext from November 15-18, Hall 11.1, Booth # D59. The company was first introduced to the market at last year’s Formnext event.
