Key Features

1. Accuracy in Large Scale: With a build volume of 280 liters, the ALTRA 280 is capable of producing intricate full-fledged prototypes, production parts, and end-use components. The machine's welded frame, ball screws, and servo motors, similar to those found in CNC technology, ensure the accuracy and repeatability expected from an industrial-grade 3D printer.
   
2. Up to 4 DSX Extruders: The ALTRA 280 is equipped with up to four DSX extruders, each capable of printing at temperatures up to 450°C and handling up to 20kg of material in one cycle. The dual extruders, along with their backup counterparts, allow for the creation of complex parts and ensure seamless production. Each DSX extruder features integrated cooling channels and multiple sensors for precise monitoring and control.
3. Fully Automated Quick Start: The ALTRA 280 simplifies the printing process with automatic functions such as bed calibration, topology measurement, and automatic compensation. Built-in sensors ensure 24/7 operation, while a camera enables real-time remote monitoring, ensuring you never miss a thing.
4. Even Temperature Distribution: Consistent temperature is crucial for achieving excellent prints and high-performance parts. The ALTRA 280's print bed and build chamber can reach temperatures up to 180°C, maintaining uniform heat distribution. The airflow control system precisely tempers the prints, resulting in enhanced and consistent mechanical properties.
