Fusion3 EDGE 3D Printer
EXCEPTIONAL 3D PRINT QUALITY AT HIGH SPEED
Fusion3’s ‘F-Series’ motion control system delivers faster speeds and greater visual quality and tight tolerances.
Fusion3, since its inception, has utilized its ‘F-Series’ platform to deliver high-speed 3D printing with high-strength 3D printing materials.
For EDGE, we’ve updated the ‘F-Series Platform’ with upgraded motion control components, including all-new linear rails, Gates 2GT2 belts, and specially tuned stepper motors. Through these changes, Fusion3’s EDGE 3D printer has attained even faster speeds at standard print settings with tremendous improvements in print quality and enabled unique features such as a new “Fast” 3d printing mode for printing certain materials at 200MM/sec using a .4MM print head.
NEW ANVIL 3D PRINT HEAD SYSTEM
Patent-Pending technology provides greater reliability, performance and easier to maintain.
Fusion3’s patent-pending ANVIL print head system combines precision-milled print head components with an inexpensive surgical steel print tube in place of the traditional screw-in 3D printer nozzle.
The ANVIL print head, which heats up to 320°C, utilizes precision milled components, a high-quality, high-temperature heater cartridge, and a PT-1000 temperature sensor.
The use of a single, interchangeable, surgical steel print tube, enables faster 3D printing and is wear-resistant for use with abrasive filaments such as carbon fiber or fiberglass-reinforced filament.
The print tubes come in .4MM, .6MM and .8MM sizes and are easy to swap out, or customers may decide to purchase extra ANVIL print heads and swap print heads out on the carriage.
The single tube design is more reliable, eliminating the chance of leakage found in a traditional screw-in nozzle print head, and inexpensive and easy to replace, translating to lower operating costs.
EASY TO OPERATE & MAINTAIN
New features to assist users with operation and maintenance, without sacrificing performance & flexibility.
Every EDGE comes standard with a 1/4″ aluminum tool plate print bed with standard glass surface. An optional magnetic 1/4″ tool plate enables printing with both glass and optional removable surfaces is also available for advanced/expert users. Both surfaces provide a near flat reference surface contributing to the performance of our new mesh bed leveling system.
Fusion3’s new proprietary, ultra-light touch probe, and this reference print surface, enables EDGE’s mesh probe bed leveling system to ensure a near-perfect first layer for each print.
New control systems are powered by a dedicated 64-Bit ARM processor, separate from the 3D printer’s control board. Powering a 7″ touch screen, more useful information and robust remote management tools, including maintenance reminders are available to the operator.
DURABLE & RELIABLE 3D PRINTING
Our customers require maximum uptime. Fusion3 engineers and supports our 3D printers to achieve this goal.
EDGE also features a new, upgraded V3 extruder that uses a belt drive system and an upgraded filament detection monitor that can be tuned to different detection settings based on the material printed. At many customers’ requests, we included new ‘push to fit’ connectors for the Bowden tube to make servicing the printing path easier. With the new linear rail system and bed leveling, EDGE is an increasingly robust and durable system for use in the most demanding environments.
However, should customers require assistance with their 3D printers, or in the unlikely event of an issue, Fusion3 provides the best warranty in the 3D printing industry. In addition, Fusion3 also includes free technical support for the life of your machine with every Fusion3 3D printer.
WIDEST VARIETY OF 3D PRINTER MATERIALS
Fusion3’s testing & certification process ensures our customers can successfully print the widest variety of materials for 3D printing ‘out of the box’.
Fusion3’s rigorous material testing and certification process ensure that our customers can print the widest range of materials purchased from a variety of quality suppliers. Using the ¼” aluminum tool plate print bed with glass print surface (standard), our customers can print materials from all major categories including (but not limited to): PLA, ABS, ASA, Reinforced Materials including Carbon Fiber, Kevlar, and Fiberglass, Flexible, Nylons, PET/PETG and Polycarbonate.
With the addition of an optional magnetic tool plate and various optional magnetic print surfaces, customers can now print new materials, including Polypropylene, PVDF, and 316L Stainless Steel. Fusion3 provides customers with optimized settings for these materials within our bundled REACTOR 3D printing software, ensuring certified materials print successfully “out of the box.”
SAFE & COMFORTABLE FOR YOUR WORK ENVIRONMENT
With every new 3D printer model we look to incorporate additional features to drive further comfort, safety and convenience.
The fully-enclosed EDGE protects users from contact with hot surfaces. EDGE includes a new door interlock feature, which pauses prints if a user opens the door.
Fusion3 offers an optional HEPA & Carbon filter air filter, which is now located within the 3D printer enclosure, for operating locations without adequate ventilation, which helps contain potentially harmful emissions.
Perfect for the office or classroom, EDGE is only 37.5db when printing.
FOCUS ON SECURITY
Options for customers who safeguard proprietary & sensitive information within their 3D printing workflow.
Many of Fusion3’s customers wish to safeguard their proprietary and sensitive information within the 3D printing workflow. The company offers two versions of EDGE to meet the different security needs of our customers.
The Standard Version of EDGE has open USB ports, wired and wireless networking, and convenience features to provide notifications and other status to users beyond the device.
Fusion3 designed the Secure Version of EDGE for companies, government, military, and similar organizations with strict information security guidelines. This version ships with only Ethernet networking, a locked USB port, no features that communicate beyond the device, and ships with the Offline Activation version of our REACTOR 3D printing software which does not use the internet for license activation or updating.
