In this article, we'll be talking about the ATOM 2.5EX 3D printer . This device was unveiled at this year's CEBIT trade show . The manufacturer assures us that the ATOM 2.5EX combines precision and durability in a sleekly designed machine.
However, what has impressed us most is the ease with which we can attach different accessories to transform the printer into a laser engraver or a CNC router . Furthermore, being a delta-type printer , it is capable of printing large-volume objects.
Industrial innovation applied to the design of the ATOM 2.5EX
The manufacturer has spared no expense in incorporating high-quality elements into this equipment; from optical limit switches on all axes, Japanese THK linear guides , an easily replaceable heated bed platform, carbon fiber bars, an excellent titanium extruder , and an automatic calibration system.
This equipment incorporates a dual extrusion system to expand our creative capabilities, allowing us to print multiple materials or two colors in the same piece.
A novel cooling system for the printed layer allows for the printing of extremely long material bridges without the need for supports.
But what has truly impressed us is the innovative magnetic system for securing the print head . It's remarkable how easily it can be attached and detached, and this ease allows us to quickly repurpose our printer as a laser engraver or CNC router by attaching different accessories . The manufacturer even sells a specially designed part so engineers and makers can create their own custom print heads to suit their specific needs.
We leave you the official presentation video so that you can get your own idea of ​​the benefits of this team:
An intercontinental alliance
The machine was designed by the Asian manufacturer LAYER ONE and unveiled in Taiwan in January. TRIDITIVE will handle its production and distribution in Europe. The exact date when the equipment will be available from distributors or even on the manufacturer's website is unknown, as is its price.
The team is a real discovery that we will follow closely to see how the project evolves.
