Thanks to the fully automated system leveling technology, there is no longer any need to laboriously adjust the print bed before every print job. The print bed is automatically leveled by means of high-precision laser measurements using a three-point procedure when the equipment is initially set up and put into operation. This is done by two independent motors, ensuring optimal print bed alignment. The process takes less than 5 minutes.

The processing reliability of the printing operation is significantly enhanced thanks to the filament feeder and tracking system. The system constantly monitors the material feed while it is running and pauses if, for example, no more material is available. Printing can simply resume subsequently. In addition, the system registers the difference between target and actual speed for material usage, which is undetectable to the naked eye, and it uses this information to automatically regulate the printing speed.

Heated ceramic print bed:

The 6 mm thick, heated glass-ceramic print bed (150 °C) optimizes process quality because the object adheres better to the print bed.

Printhead:

The x500pro operates using water-cooled DD4 dual extruder technology and is designed with the new dual lift extruders.

Safety concept in accordance with industry standards:

The footswitch enables controlled safe system interventions while the process is in operation.

Electronics for sophisticated users:

The whole electronics system for the x500pro is housed in a special electrical cabinet. The industrial computer can be intuitively operated via the 7 inch touchscreen. Network connectivity is achieved via Ethernet cables which allows remote access and monitoring via tablet, smartphone, or computer. Printing tasks can be started directly from a USB stick or by using the browser-based controls.
