VECT thermal regulation system

Actively heated chamber

Patented VECT™ 110 Thermal Regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment leading to parts that are 2x stronger on the z-axis, and 2x more accurate across the board. (Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature)

 

Actively heated chamber
Maximum temperature:

110° C

Thermal Regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment leading to parts that are 2x stronger on the z-axis, and 2x more accurate across the board.

Metal replacement parts

Nylon Carbon Fiber

Method X Carbon Fiber produces dimensionally accurate parts in carbon fiber reinforced nylon – optimized for high strength, stiffness, and heat resistance making it ideal for structural applications and metal replacements.

Print strong, heat- resistant metal replacement parts

Rigid metal frame

A structurally-optimized metal frame runs the full length of the body to offset flexing. Less flexing means more consistent prints with better part accuracy and fewer failures.

Dimensional accuracy

 

+/- 0.2mm

or +/-.002mm per mm of travel*

 

 

*(Whichever is greater.) Based on internal testing of selected geometries.

The 1C Composite Extruder

Engineered, optimized, and tested to withstand abrasive composite materials for maximum lifespan.

 

6-in-1 Modular Performance Extruders

Quickly change between material groups, preventing cross-contamination.
