Axtra3D · Hybrid PhotoSynthesis (HPS) — laser + 4K DLP

Axtra3D Lumia X1 HPS Industrial Resin 3D Printer – Laser + 4K DLP | 249×140×499 mm

The Axtra3D Lumia X1 is an industrial resin 3D printer built on Hybrid PhotoSynthesis (HPS) — a 4K DLP projector and a laser working the same 405 nm layer, delivering SLA-grade resolution at 2×–20× the throughput of conventional resin printers on an open 249×140×499 mm platform.

✔ HPS: laser + 4K DLP on one layer — speed and SLA-grade detail together
✔ TruLayer separation runs large cross-sections and filled, viscous resins
✔ Open 405 nm system — Henkel Loctite, BASF Forward AM, Arkema and more
✔ Lead time: configured to order — request a quote for delivery & installation
