Print quality

The Mingda MD-1000D can produce high-quality detailed parts with smooth surface finish. Due to its dual-extruder design, the machine is capable of printing with easy-to-remove and soluble support materials and can effectively build complex models with overhangs, bridges, and hollow structures.

The direct drive dual extrusion system of the MD-1000D allows for flexible and precise filament control.

With the flow rate of up to 40 mm³/s and maximum print speed of 500 mm/s, the Mingda MD-1000D is 5X faster than competing printers, which significantly cuts production times. Featuring acceleration of up to 10000 mm/s², which means only 0.02 s from 0 to 300 mm/s, the machine is capable of printing large-scale models in a day.

For example, this automobile seat (800 x 800 x 1000 mm) was printed by the Mingda MD-1000D with PLA-HF at the speed of 250 mm/s in just 3 days. Regular large-format FDM printers on the market, with a printing speed of 50 mm/s, would print the same model in 15 days.

The Mingda MD-1000D is equipped with closed-loop stepper motors. Compared to traditional open-loop systems, it has powerful feedback capabilities, faster speeds, higher precision, and lower heat generation. Crafted with an all-metal enclosed chamber and modular guide rail structure, the printer not only maintains a consistent printing temperature, but also ensures structural stability and precision of the printing process.

To eliminate ghosting and ringing issues, the machine is engineered with the self-developed vibration reduction feature that automatically compensates the vibrations during high-speed printing. In addition, the flow control mechanism allows precise management of the amount of filament, eliminating under- and over-extrusion. This leads to improved print quality and accuracy with sharper details.

The MD-1000D incorporates an automatic leveling system, which greatly improves printing efficiency and quality stability as well as helps to reduce failures caused by a poorly leveled build plate. The precise calibration of nozzle distance also enables the printer to create models with finer layer resolution.

Also, the machine boasts a flexible PEI platform. Due to its impressive viscosity, the build plate provides strong adhesion, high-temperature resistance, and support of various consumables. Moreover, it aims to prevent model warping and allows for effortless removal of completed prints by simple bending.

Last but not least, the printer has a powerful dual cooling system with an aerodynamic air duct design that ensures quick and complete cooling of each layer at high speeds. This offers exceptional molding accuracy as well as reduced risks of stringing and warping.

Materials

The Mingda MD-1000D is equipped with a dual-gear direct extruder that gives it a unique ability to handle flexible filaments. Moreover, the machine is built to accommodate both high-temperature and common hotends. The maximum temperature of the basic hotend can reach 250 °C, supporting popular materials like PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, and others.

Thanks to the all-metal hotend and hardened steel nozzle capable of heating up to 350 °C, the Mingda MD-1000D model can reliably print with a wide range of engineering and composite filaments, including PET-carbon fiber, PET-glass fiber, Nylon carbon fiber, Nylon glass fiber, and more ensuring high dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the printed parts. There is no need to replace the hotend when switching between different material types. Furthermore, the dual-extruder structure enables multi-color and multi-material printing with support filaments, such as S-Multi, S-HtPA, PVA, etc.

Apart from this, the Mingda MD-1000D is equipped with a quickly heated aluminum alloy platform with the maximum temperature of 110 °C. Evenly heated and capable of reaching 60 °C in about 75 seconds, it makes for strong first layer adhesion and overall print quality. The heating speed remains unchanged at 220V and 110V.

Build volume

The Mingda MD-1000D 3D printer offers an enormous build area of 39.4 x 39.4 x 39.4 inches (1000 x 1000 x 1000 mm). This volume lets you produce models of various sizes, including fairly large ones, without the need of splitting them and in batches, which makes for time-saving and increased performance.
