MakerBot METHOD XL 3D Printer

MakerBot METHOD XL 3D Printer

The MakerBot METHOD XL is a professional-grade 3D printer designed for large-scale, high-precision prototyping and production. Featuring an extra-large build volume and dual-extrusion capabilities, it enables complex multi-material prints with engineering-grade materials. The METHOD XL utilizes a heated chamber and advanced thermal regulation to ensure consistent layer adhesion and reduce warping. Its water-soluble support material simplifies post-processing, while integrated air filtration and humidity-controlled material storage maintain a safe and reliable printing environment. Ideal for engineers and manufacturers seeking industrial-quality results on a desktop platform.

Key Features

• Extra-Large Build Volume: Offers a dual-extrusion capacity of 305 x 305 x 320 mm (12 x 12 x 12.6 in), accommodating substantial projects.

• Dual Performance Extruders: Equipped with dual extrusion and swappable extruders, facilitating multi-material printing and reducing contamination risks.

• VECT Thermal Regulation System: Features a Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature system that actively heats the chamber up to 100°C and the build plate up to 105°C, ensuring consistent layer adhesion and minimizing warping.

• RapidRinse Support Material: Utilizes water-soluble support material that dissolves quickly in tap water, simplifying post-processing.

• Integrated Air Filtration: Includes HEPA and carbon filters to capture ultrafine particles and odors, promoting a safer working environment.

• Moisture-Controlled Material Storage: Comes with an external material case that maintains optimal humidity levels, ensuring filament quality and print reliability.
