Stratasys F870 built for industrial production
F870 Stratasys' production-grade, large-format FDM printer has a large build volume of 39.4 inches by 24 inches by 24 inches and a fully heated chamber that ensures dimensional accuracy and reduces warping. An integrated material drying system helps maintain optimal material conditions. It has three print heads: the N14 for fine resolution, N25 for high throughput, and N20H, hardened for handling carbon-fiber composites. It is compatible with a portfolio of durable industrial-grade materials, and can print continuously for up to two weeks.
What's new? The F870, which was shown at IMTS in September.
Benefits Faster production, lower costs and large capacity, which enables production of large parts or multiple components in a single build for maximum throughput. It is aimed at industrial manufacturing, automotive, aerospace and defense markets, and can produce tooling, fixtures, manufacturing aids and end-use parts.
