The soon-to-launch E2CF printer is engineered to additively manufacture objects from carbon-fiber materials. According to Raise3D, its new printer was designed for companies in the automotive, aerospace, and health-care markets that need to produce parts with a high strength-to-weight ratio and perform consistently at a high level for extended periods.
The E2CF comes with ideaMaker slicing software, RaiseCloud print-management platform, and a hardened double-gear extrusion system. The nozzle and feeding unit are functionally and mechanically enhanced for long-term operation, reportedly allowing parts to be printed for more than 1,000 hours from the company’s PA12 CF filament.
The printer is also equipped with an automatic bed-leveling system and two stand-alone, sealed dry boxes that safeguard materials from humidity.
Raise3D plans to launch the E2CF officially late this year and display it at the RAPID + TCT conference and exhibition Sept. 13-15, 2021, in Chicago.
The Additive Report focuses on the use of additive manufacturing technology in the real world of manufacturing. Today’s manufacturers are using 3D printing technology to create tools and fixtures, and some are even using AM for high-volume production work. Their stories will be covered here.
