Features

Print Faster: The EXT 1270's pellet extrusion technology prints up to 10X faster than traditional filament extrusion 3D printing with deposition rates as high as 30lbs (13.6kg) per hour.

Lower Your Costs: Utilizing pellet feedstocks means the EXT 1270 can reduce material costs by up to 10X. Lights-out manufacturing and the option for in situ milling help cut labor costs.

Reliable Production: With a built volume of 1270mm x 1270 mm x 1829mm (50" x 50" x 72") the EXT 1270 can print most large parts in one piece, eliminating the need for gluing. 

This large-format 3D printer features a single pellet extruder as standard, but can be customized with up to three toolheads, including a second pellet extruder, a filament extruder, and a 3-axis milling spindle. The EXT 1270 is an ideal solution for manufacturing large-scale parts, ranging from tooling and patterns to end-use products.

Built for Production

The EXT 1270 Titan Pellet is purpose-built for production additive manufacturing, capable of producing functional, high-performance parts in industries such as foundry, automotive, aerospace and defense, and consumer products.

Featuring a welded steel frame and an industrial actively heated enclosure, the EXT 1270 is production-ready and can be upgraded with a second pellet extruder, filament printing capability, and/or CNC milling functionality either at the time of purchase or later on.

Whether you need patterns, molds, tooling, jigs, fixtures, end-use parts or full-scale prototypes, the EXT 1270 is a proven production solution.

Pellet Extrusion on the EXT 1270

The EXT 1270 is proven with a wide variety of pellet materials, ranging from commodity feedstocks to high-temperature, high-performance materials such as CF-PEI, GF-PEKK, Nylons and Polycarbonate. Pellet extrusion also enables the use of highly flexible elastomers and high-percentage glass and carbon-filled materials that are difficult, or impossible, to print from filament all while reducing material costs up to 10X and delivering 10X higher deposition rates.

Hybrid Manufacturing on the EXT 1270

The EXT 1270  Titan Pellet features our proven pellet extrusion system and can be equipped with additional toolheads on the same gantry, such as a filament extruder or second pellet extruder, enabling high-speed, multi-material printing. With the optional CNC spindle toolhead, the EXT 1270 allows for true hybrid manufacturing, enabling the machining of 3D printed parts both during and after the printing process. Experience next-level production additive manufacturing with the EXT 1270, which shortens cycle times and produces smooth, accurate end-use 3D printed parts.
