The 3D Labs HTX can print layers at just 40 microns, which enables you to produce parts with consistently smooth exterior surfaces. It is more than enough for professional applications and large-scale industries.
The printer is equipped with two 500 °C carbon steel nozzles, giving you the best balance between speed and detail. They are engineered with high-temperature stepper motors and improved cooling fans that guarantee optimal performance and reduce warping, stringing, and other related issues.
The patent-pending high-temperature bed probe provides extreme accuracy and repeatability at high temperatures, ensuring proper mesh and bed leveling.
High-temperature TBI linear rails provide precise and accurate motion for outstanding dimensional accuracy of your prints.
Furthermore, high-quality dual TBI ball screws guarantee rock-solid support for the bed platform and excellent Z-accuracy while working with high-temperature materials.
The 3D Labs HTX is compatible with such ultra-performance materials as PEEK, PEI, PEKK, ULTEM, and engineering-grade filaments like ABS, ASA, PC, letting you create dimensionally accurate and incredibly durable functional parts.
Thanks to the actively heated build chamber ensuring a constant 100 °C heated environment coupled with dense foil-backed insulation, printed parts have superior layer bonding and strength when compared to passively heated chambers.
In addition, the 3D Labs HTX is equipped with a heated bed able to achieve 220 °C. It is based on MIC6 Arconic aluminum plate that guarantees flatness, hassle-free print removal, and excellent first layer adhesion.
The 3D Labs HTX offers a capacious build volume of 350 x 300 x 300 mm (13.8 x 11.8 x 11.8 in) that lets you print a single large model or simultaneously produce several smaller ones in one go, which makes for rapid production in small batches.
The 3D Labs HTX can be smoothly controlled via PC, remotely, or directly at the built-in 7" touch screen, which does not require network connectivity. With a neatly-looking professional UI and streamlined system behind menu options, the machine comes as a completely user-friendly solution with handy automated functions. Overall, the HTX features a USB, Wi-Fi, and Ethernet connectivity, making the HTX model a really accessible one.
It is recommended to use the printer with the proprietary 3D Labs Ion slicer providing advanced optimization for superior print quality as well as curated profiles for quick-start printing. The software is specially tailored for the HTX and materials across the engineering spectrum. Moreover, it features a web management console, advanced non-cloud print farm clustering, job control, and queuing functions.
The 3D Labs HTX is available in a classic black body. Its stylish appearance makes it ideal for professional and industrial applications.
