Pro Using engineering-grade materials, BigRep's newest industrial 3-D printer can produce end-use parts, as well as prototypes and tooling. It features an enclosed build chamber, a humidity-controlled spool chamber, semi-automatic bed leveling and temperature-controlled filament chambers.

What's new? The printer, which is now available for pre-order. It features a state-of-the-art CNC motion-control system from Bosch Rexroth, Charlotte, N.C., as well as BigRep's new Metering Extruder Technology, also known as MXT, which provides dynamic responses as the extruder starts, stops and rounds corners.

Benefits Fast, precise, large-scale prints, and ease of use. Compared with fused-filament-fabrication printers, BigRep's MXT makes possible much faster extrusion rates. Also, with its Bosch Rexroth components, the printer is Industry 4.0-capable. In addition, to improve user safety, the Pro is compatible with standard fume- and emissions-ventilation systems.
