The EXT 800 Titan Pellet harnesses the speed, reliability, and efficiency of 3D Systems’ pellet extrusion printing for organizations that do not need the build capacity of our larger EXT Titan Pellet systems. The EXT 800 is ready to meet the challenges of demanding industrial production with applications from foundry patterns and manufacturing fixtures to prosthetics and durable goods.
With a welded steel frame, industrial CNC controller, servo-driven ball screws on all axes, and an actively heated, enclosed build chamber, the EXT 800 is built for reliable, lights-out additive manufacturing. The large touchscreen HMI allows easy access to printer functions while safety features like door interlocks and material feed run-out detection ensure safe operation.
Like our larger EXT Titan Pellet systems, the EXT 800 features our proven high-throughput pellet extruder enabling high print speeds with a wide range of low-cost thermoplastic pellets including ABS, ASA, PETG, and PLA. With a heated bed capable up to 140°C and an actively heated chamber up to 80°C, the EXT 800 can print a range of engineering materials including carbon fiber-filled PA, PC, PEI, and PEKK. Pellet extrusion also enables printing of highly flexible and elastic materials including TPEs as soft as shore 26A.
3D Systems’ pellet extrusion technology, sometimes referred to as Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF), is similar to Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF/FDM) processes in that the extrusion toolhead melts thermoplastic feedstock and deposits the melted material layer by layer to build an object. However, 3D Systems’ pellet extrusion enables much higher throughput while saving significant cost compared to filament-based printers.
In production, up-time is everything, and the EXT 800 delivers reliable high-speed performance with industrial CNC motion control, servo motors on all axes, NFPA-79 compliant electronics, and our ultra-reliable pellet extrusion system.
