There are several factors to consider before purchasing a large format 3D printer. Since there isn't a 3D printer that will fit every single application that you may have, it is important to understand your application(s). When purchasing a large printer, you can imagine that the printer will take up quite a bit of space and will have electrical requirements. But it is also important to think about your part usage, the material requirements, software required, how the print will be supported and budget.

The BigRep PRO is an industrial large-format 3D Printer to support your company's development and production. Since the PRO launched in 2018, the BigRep R&D team has mainly focused on making this machine better by listening to what the customers wanted.

One of the questions we receive often here at EXBuild is whether the strength and surface finish of 3D printed parts has reached the point that it can be used for end-use, production parts. Well the truth is smooth, production parts have been coming off of 3D printers for years now, you just have to make sure you are using the right technology. 

Australian Bell turns to FEA software and 3D printing to bring bell production into the 21st century.

The musical chimes and resounding gongs of bells have inspired and enchanted people for millennia; whether accompanying religious and spiritual ceremonies, used for communication or played for musical purposes.
