The Pinnacle of High-Performance Technology.
The ALTRA 280 stands as a leading industrial marvel boasting a generous build capacity. Its unparalleled reliability is driven by up to 4 cutting-edge extruders, each with dedicated backups, setting new standards in additive manufacturing for flawless print outcomes.
MADE FOR HIGH-TEMPERATURE APPLICATIONS
Reliable Manufacturing of Complex Parts
With high-temperature capabilities, the ALTRA 280 delivers peak-level 3D printing for demanding applications in aerospace, defense, and automotive industries. This versatile industrial machine is large, fast, reliable, and capable of producing complex, production-quality parts without compromise.
High-Performance Parts
The ALTRA 280 boasts a spacious build chamber of 500 mm x 700 mm x 800 mm (with a build volume of 280 liters), allowing for the creation of intricate prototypes, production, and end-use parts. Its welded frame, ball screws, and servo motors—similar to those in CNC technology—ensure the accuracy and repeatability expected of an industrial machine. Enjoy unrestricted print freedom and consistently produce precise parts without compromising on size.
HIGH-TEMPERATURE CAPABILITIES
High-Performance Parts
With a build chamber and print bed reaching up to 180°C, the ALTRA 280 supports the use of high-performance materials like ULTEM 9085 and PEEK. The build chamber also functions as a tempering system during printing, improving the mechanical properties, functionality, and dimensional stability of the parts.
UP TO FOUR RELIABLE DSX EXTRUDERS
Uninterrupted Productivity
The ALTRA 280 features up to 4 DSX (Direct Synchronized Extruders) capable of printing at 450°C and handling up to 20kg in a single cycle. Achieve complex prints with dual extruders, and ensure seamless production with two backup extruders. Each DSX extruder is a masterpiece, equipped with integrated cooling channels and multiple sensors for precise monitoring and control.
EVEN TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION
For Top Mechanical Performance
Consistent temperature is crucial for producing high-quality prints and high-performance parts. With the ALTRA 280's print bed reaching up to 180°C, uniform heat distribution is maintained. The advanced airflow control technology ensures precise tempering of prints, resulting in parts with consistent mechanical properties, unlike other 3D printers that suffer from delamination and inconsistencies.
ACCURACY IN LARGE SCALE
PEAK PERFORMANCE. MASSIVE BUILD VOLUME.
QUALITY IN LARGE-FORMAT
With its robust frame, high-quality components, and consistent temperature distribution, the ALTRA 280 ensures industrial-grade quality on a large scale.
UNPARALLELED RELIABILITY
Utilize 4 advanced DSX extruders for dual extrusion, with dual backups, enabling you to print up to 20 kg in a single cycle.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE
With precisely controlled DSX extruders, the ALTRA 280 achieves temperatures up to 450°C, enabling complex prints with high-performance materials.
