Get More Info What is true idex?The Essentium HSE 280i HT 3D Printing Platform is the first industrial 3D printer that offers true IDEX. Other IDEX machines on the market feature print heads that are placed on the same X-axis gantry, preventing independent movement on the Y-axis. This limits these “semi-IDEX” machines to print modes that are synchronous on the Y-axis. Conventional Dual ExtruderOne head, two nozzlesPrints primary filament and support materialSecond nozzle may leave filament deposits Semi-Independent Dual ExtruderTwo heads, independent movement in the X-axisPrints with two materials and two identical partsFixed on the X-axis gantry, preventing independent movement on the Y-axis True Independent Dual ExtruderTwo heads, fully independentPrints two materials, identical parts, or unique partsIndependent movement in the X and Y-axis effectively gives users two machines for the price of oneFive Print ModesThe Essentium HSE 280i HT 3D Printer features five print modes. The true independence of the print heads in both the X and Y-axis gives users the flexibility to print parts at scale. SINGLE HEAD MODESingle Head Mode uses one head to print five to 15x faster than competitors, equipping manufacturers to print at the speed of relevance. Copy ModeDouble productivity with Copy Mode. This mode unlocks the ability to print two identical parts simultaneously, ideal for AM at scale. Independent ModeGet two machines for the price of one with Independent Mode. This mode allows users to print two unique parts concurrently, ideal for low volume, high mix manufacturing. MULTI-PROCESS MODEMulti-Process Mode allows users to print with two materials or nozzle sizes ideal for parts with both flexible and rigid features. Support ModeSupport Mode makes it possible to print support for parts in progress using soluble or breakaway material, ideal for printing complex geometries.Frequently Asked Questions What are independent dual extruders? 3D printers that feature independent dual extruders (IDEX) use two print heads that move independently, enabling users to print support material, two of the same parts, or two unique parts at once. The Essentium 280i HT 3D Printer is the first industrial 3D printer on the market that offers true independent dual extruders, meaning each head is fully independent on both the X and Y-axis. Other IDEX machines on the market feature print heads that are places on the same X-axis gantry, preventing independent movement on the Y-axis. This limits these “semi-IDEX” machines to print modes that are synchronous on the Y-axis. What print modes are available? The Essentium 280i HT 3D Printer is equipped with four print modes.Single Head Mode prints single parts at the speed of relevanceSupport Mode prints support for parts in progressMulti-Process Mode prints two different materials or two different filament diametersCopy Mode prints two identical parts simultaneouslyIndependent Mode Future Feature How is the HSE 280i HT 3D Printer different than the HSE 180 Series? The HSE 280i HT 3D Printer is an independent dual extrusion printer with five print modes, while the HSE 180 3D Printer series are single-head extrusion printers equipped with one print mode. Are there additional fees to unlock printer features? The only feature that requires a one-time fee to unlock is copy mode. This feature gives the machine the ability to print as if it were two printers, doubling productivity. What type of support material can I print? Users can print with water-soluble or breakaway support materials. What is the build volume of the HSE 280i HT 3D Printer? The HSE 280i HT 3D Printer has a different build volume for each print mode.Print modeBuild volumeSingle Head695mm x 500mm x 600mmMulti-Material595mm x 500mm x 600mmCopy Mode595mm x 500mm x 600mmSupport Mode(395mm x 500mm x 600mm) x2Independent ModeComing Winter 2021 Can I use Essentium materials I already own to print on the HSE 280i HT 3D Printer?
