COMPOSER A3 DESKTOP FFF 3D PRINTER ADVANTAGES
The COMPOSER A3 FFF 3D printer is a turnkey desktop continuous fiber reinforced 3D printing solution for producing anisoprinted composite parts. Stronger, lighter and cheaper than metal or non-optimal composites.
QUICK START WITH ANISOPRINT SUPPORT
You can quickly master anisoprinting basics with the Composer A3 printer using Anisoprint support, including a Quick Start Guide, Hardware Guide, User Guide, as well as a Troubleshooting section and firmware update options. Available at anisoprint.com/support.
CUSTOMIZED ANISOPRINT AURA SOFTWARE
Anisoprint has
developed specialized Aura slicer software applicable to both continuous fiber
3D printing with proprietary Composer CFC-printers and conventional
FFF-printing. Aura prepares a 3D model, generates reinforcing fiber trajectories in each layer and allows to adjust reinforcement scheme to obtain strong and lightweight parts.
STRONGER, LIGHTER AND CHEAPER
With the Composer A3 you get a bi-matrix composite part of any shape, without tools or molds, without machining and post-processing. Up to 30 times stronger than pure plastic, up to 7 times lighter than steel, up to 2 times stronger and lighter than aluminium.
FFF 3D PRINTING AVAILABLE WITH THE TOUCH OF A BUTON
Currently, only 3D printing allows to obtain composite parts with complex shape and high flexible fiber reinforcing paths. With the Composer A3 FFF 3D printer parts anisotropy control and fiber reinforcement potential with maximum efficiency are available with a touch of a button.
OPTIMAL COMPOSITE STRUCTURES
Lattice anisogrid structures possess high weight efficiency, are not afraid of cutouts and do not need drilling and milling. Structures with irregular grid density and non-geodesic reinforcement provide more efficient distribution of acting loads and, as a result, weight reduction.
COMPOSITE FIBER CO-EXTRUSION TECHNOLOGY
The process is based on embedding continuous composite fiber into the fused plastic through the use of a specially developed print head. The technology allows manufacturing high-quality reinforced materials while using the flexibility of shapes and a wide range of plastics.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
Aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, robotics, high-performance mobility, healthcare industries can benefit using anisoprinting with the Composer A3 FFF 3D Printer. As a result, you get a bi-matrix composite part of any shape, without tools or molds, without machining and post-processing. Several times stronger and lighter than plastic, metal or non-optimal 3D printed composites.
AEROSPACE. FFF 3D printing with the Composer A3 is particularly applicable in industries requiring high parts and components strength and accuracy and low weight at the same time, such as aerospace engineering.
AUTOMOTIVE. Parts and components made of continuous fiber reinforced composites are widely used in automotive applications, providing same or higher strength characteristics than conventional materials at a lower weight. Such components are particularly effective in motorsports, where parts weight and ability to be produced quickly and flexibly play a decisive role.
MANUFACTURING. Case parts, as well as complex configuration parts made of conventional materials requiring expensive and time-consuming machining can be successfully replaced by parts and components made of continuous fiber reinforced composites. In this case, the required strength characteristics of parts are ensured with their lower weight and lower production costs.
ROBOTICS. Robot and robotics production is constantly increasing. Developing these devices quickly requires ability to rapidly create prototypes and parts with non-standard configurations. For robotics, the advantages offered by continuous fiber reinforced composite 3D printing technology are particularly relevant, as parts produced using this technology provide less weight with equal strength characteristics, as well as more energy per unit weight of the device, which is crucial for autonomous products.
HIGH PERFORMANCE MOBILITY. Advantages of manufacturing parts and assemblies for high-performance mobility using composite materials reinforced with continuous fiber 3D printing technology are obvious: you can create non-standard configuration parts of lower weight with required strength characteristics and rapidly produce parts without complex technological production setup.
FFF 3D PRINTER FUNCTION
3D printer function is to directly create objects of various shapes from computer graphics data without the need for machining or molds. This significantly reduces the production cycle of products and improves productivity.
Desktop FFF 3D printers like the Composer A3 are in great demand in equipment manufacturing, aerospace, automobiles, robotics and intelligent manufacturing as well as in quick prototyping for various industries field. This latest generation of FFF technology 3D printers has achieved groundbreaking speed, reducing costs by more than 10 times while parts printed excelling the strength of metal. This printer is a turnkey desktop continuous fiber reinforced 3D printing solution for producing anisoprinted composite parts.
