BigRep offers a new industrial Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) 3D printer, the VIIO 250—its most automated large-scale machine made to print engineering-grade and fiber-reinforced materials. The 3D printer is built to produce large, high-resolution parts so users can press print, and the machine takes it from there with little to no manual intervention.  

The features for uninterrupted printing are automatic filament handling named Infinity Box and the backup extruder functionality called Relay Mode both of which enable around-the-clock production. It also has a new controls platform delivering industrial CNC quality and over-the-air software updates.  

Other key features of the 3D printer are the temperature-controlled build chamber of 250 liters (1000x500x500 mm) that reaches 50°C, an open material system compatible with BigRep and third-party filaments, and dual Smart Manufacturing Extruders (SMX) that heat up to 350°C. The machine has a new upgrade—an intuitive human machine interface (HMI), that comes in multiple languages and has animated guides to steer users through standard operations.The machine is positioned for sectors in industrial manufacturing, especially the automotive industry. Designed for high efficiency, the VIIO 250 enables affordable production of functional parts with reduced energy consumption.  
 

The VIIO 250 will be available for viewing at RAPID TCT in Los Angeles and will also have a Virtual Launch event on June 25. Visit BigRep at Booth 839 at RAPID + TCT to be among the first to see it in North America.
