Innovation Workshop transformed prop making for films like Avatar and Transformers by replacing slow, traditional methods with large-format 3D printing using the MDAC Industrial Series. This shift enabled them to produce full-scale, detailed props in days instead of weeks, with greater speed, flexibility, and control.
As large-format, robotic 3D printing gains momentum in industrial manufacturing, it’s critical to understand what’s required for a successful implementation. This blog outlines ten key considerations for getting started with robotic additive manufacturing using pellet-fed extrusion and robotic arms. From defining your application goals and selecting the right materials, to choosing the right robotic arm, extruder, and toolpath workflow, the article guides you through every step of the setup process. It also covers essential topics like print environment design, calibration, post-processing, team training, and scaling for long-term value. Whether you're new to additive or looking to evolve your current setup, this guide offers practical insights to help you build a reliable, future-ready robotic 3D printing system.
Large-format 3D printing revolutionizes vacuum forming by reducing costs, speeding R&D, and enhancing efficiency. It enables rapid prototyping, flexible adjustments, and on-demand mold production, transforming manufacturing.
