MDAC50-50 Robotic 3D Printing Cell

The MDAC50-50 is Massive Dimension’s largest standardized robotic 3D printing cell—engineered for extreme-scale builds, tooling, and structural parts. Built on the high-payload ABB IRB 8700 platform and equipped with the ultra-high-throughput MDPE50 extruder, this system delivers unmatched material output, reach, and versatility. Optional milling capabilities make it a hybrid solution for both additive and subtractive manufacturing workflows.

Key Features

Extra-Large ABB Industrial Robot
Built on the ABB IRB 8700, featuring a 475 kg payload and 4.2-meter reach, providing the power and span required for the most demanding additive manufacturing projects.

High-Throughput MDPE50 Extruder
Capable of extruding up to 50 lbs of material per hour, the MDPE50 supports large nozzle sizes (6.0mm to 15.0mm) for rapid deposition of filled, recycled, and engineering-grade thermoplastics.

Expansive Build Volume
Delivers a massive ~33 cubic meters of print volume on a 4m x 2m unheated build surface—ideal for molds, architectural components, and one-off production parts.

Optional Milling Capability
Can be configured with an integrated milling toolhead to enable post-processing and surface finishing directly within the build area.

Integrated Material Conveyance
Includes the MD Pellet Dryer and MDMCU to maintain stable, moisture-free pellet flow throughout large-format builds.

Remote Monitoring System
Built-in camera system allows for live process monitoring and time-lapse capture, ensuring quality control even on multi-day print jobs.

Standard Industrial Safety Panels
Comes equipped with full industrial safety enclosure, meeting compliance and protecting operators in production environments.
