Cronus Titan Robotics' new fused-filament-fabrication printer uses software developed in collaboration with Autodesk Inc., San Rafael, Calif., to create large, complex parts by distributing tool paths among its five print heads and five moving bridges. The customizable printer, which can be fitted with multiple tool heads, has a standard build volume of 72 inches by 30 inches by 20 inches. It is available as an open-air machine for printing in polylactic acid and PETG, or as an enclosed unit for the manufacture of parts requiring high-temperature plastics, such as ABS and high-impact PS. Applications include rapid prototyping and the manufacture of end-use parts.
What's new? The printer, which Titan Robotics announced in January at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. It became available for purchase in February.
Benefits Speed, accuracy and reliability. With five print heads, the machine can print big parts with high resolution quickly. For optimal efficiency, the print heads can work independently or together.
