MDAC20-50 Robotic 3D Printing Cell

The MDAC20-50 is a high-output industrial robotic 3D printing cell featuring the MDPE50 pellet extruder. Designed for large tooling, molds, and functional parts, it delivers 50 lbs/hr material throughput and is built on the same ABB IRB 6730 platform as the MDAC20-10. The MDAC20-50 is ideal for users seeking faster deposition, larger bead sizes, and reduced print times in production-scale applications.

Key Features

Heavy-Duty ABB Robotics
Built on the ABB IRB 6730 6-axis robot with a 210 kg payload and 3.1-meter reach, the MDAC20-50 provides robust motion control for high-throughput industrial printing.

Ultra-High-Throughput MDPE50 Extruder
Capable of extruding up to 50 lbs of material per hour, the MDPE50 extruder supports large nozzle diameters (6.0mm to 15.0mm), enabling rapid deposition with thermoplastics including filled, recycled, and structural polymers.

Expansive Build Volume
Delivers a print volume of ~8.5 cubic meters on a 10 ft x 3 ft heated build surface, ideal for large molds, fixtures, and structural components.

Integrated Material Conveyance
The MD Pellet Dryer and MDMCU (Material Conveyance Unit) ensure moisture-controlled pellet delivery for consistent quality in long-duration prints.

Remote Monitoring System
Equipped with an integrated camera system for live print supervision and time-lapse documentation.

Industrial Safety Enclosure
Includes a full perimeter safety panel system for operator protection and workplace compliance.

Optional Milling Capability
Can be configured for hybrid additive-subtractive workflows, offering built-in post-processing flexibility.
