With the additive machine tool, the Wizard 480+ and the APS continuous filament technology, reproducible feather-light and high strength functional components can be 3D printed manufactured!
Tensile strength and density
With a tensile strength of 1.060 MPa, flexular strength of 720 MPa and a density of 1.4 g/cm³, our carbon fiber is 4 times stronger than titanium, In tensile strength to density ratio.

Unlimited possibilities with the Wizard 480+
The modular design of our innovative tool changing system makes it possible to use up to 4 different print heads within one process.
Continuous fiber processing can be usefully supplemented with the FFF/FDM process.
Different diameters for faster infill, material combinations, use of water-soluble support material, ...
