The self-assembly Modix Extra Large 120X boasts a build volume of 120 x 60 x 60 cm. If features E3D print heads, Hiwin motion rails, an Alcoa Mic6 print bed, and Modix’s new 100-point automatic bed leveling system. Despite its size, the 3D printer is easy to assemble according to Modix, and the company provides detailed online manuals and step-by-step video instructions, as well as free technical support.
“The Extra Large 120X advances our strategy of building large, high quality modular 3D printers,” said Modix Founder and CEO Shachar Gafni. “The success of our first large model helped us grow to become a global company, and we’re now honored to serve users around the world from small startups and workshops to the R&D departments of Philips, Applied Materials, and General Electric. This latest release confirms Modix’s dedication to building affordable, innovative, and heavy duty 3D printing solutions for designers, artists and engineers.”
Large format 3D printers are becoming much more common than they used to be, but it isn’t often that you see such a massive 3D printer come in a self-assembly kit form. Modix emphasizes that it makes a point to not sacrifice quality for size, and the company’s 3D printers have so far been well-reviewed. They’re also relatively inexpensive for their size, partially because of the fact that they require self-assembly.
Modix will be showcasing the new Extra Large 120X next week at the TCT Show, which is taking place in Birmingham, England from September 25th to 27th. If you’ll be at the show, stop by and visit Modix at Booth #E21 and check out the company’s large-scale offerings.
