Merit 3D

Large Format Printing

Each of our machines use thermoplastic pellets to print with. They also have a print volume in excess of 41″ for each dimension. They are used for prototypes, molds, and some furniture. Like FDM 3D printing, these machines fall under LFAM (Large Format Additive Manufacturing).

Caracol

This webpage is currently under construction, just like our Caracol robotic arm. We are trying to get a leg up on the competition, so we bought an arm. It is a fine addition to our army of machines. 

When finished, the video will show the preparations it took to install the robot as well an example print. For now you can go to Caracol’s website for a preview of what’s coming. 

When it is completed, we will be able to print in many different thermoplastics with a very large print volume. We will dial in our Carbon fiber pellet first. 

Atlas from Titan Robotics

We can’t show you the inner workings of our Atlas printer. Just know that it’s print area is huge (42″x42″x48″) and it uses thermoplastic pellets to do the job. This means that the materials are typically cheaper than typical end user FDM printers. We mainly print with carbon fiber, which is definitely strong, so print with it. 

However, because it uses pellets, it doesn’t have retraction, which means that it may leave strings when it travels. Our customers have used this machine to make molds, jigs, prototypes and some end-use large items.

Vase mode is its strong suit, which is essentially a non-stop printing setting where the wall thickness is the same throughout the print. This article is a decent explanation. Article link.
