Atomic Props & Effects Ltd. has created the Guinness World Record -- the tallest 3D printed human statue with the help of two MAKEiT2x4 printers.
Casale Design, Flying Dutchman Industries, Ivan Tampi Customs and many other companies have chosen MAKEiT 2x4 large format 3d printers to 3D print their projects, car part prototypes, master molds, vacuum molds, production aids…
Based on our clients feedback and the success of the MAKEiT2x4 model, we have developed MAKEiT2x4+ model to serve industrial needs better. It is capable of 3D printing much higher temperature material with a larger print volume

No extra tooling needed
Increase plug-making accuracy and symmetry
Say goodbye to intensive manual labor as required by traditional plug-making process
Increase shop productivity by using MAKEiT 3D printing technology, without adding extra human power
Able to keep new designs and master molds in house
Speed up the whole process from concept design to first part made
Go to market faster at lower costs
Ready to handle filaments with high temperature demands (up to 450C/842F”)
Random layer shifts can happen due to stepper motors skipping steps sometimes unexpectedly. Just imagine the failed project, the material loss, the time loss, the missed deadline, unhappy customer, mounting frustration and pressure…
To prevent the random layer shift, we’ve developed and installed an LSP (layer shift prevention) electro-mechanical system to every single 2x4+ printer, using closed loop motor configuration. This is a standard feature, not an add-on. We value our users’ time as our own time. Our users deserve the best!
MAKEiT2x4+’s powerful extrusion system is capable of heating up to 450C/842F”
It specializes in printing high temp industrial grade Nylon Glass Fiber and Nylon Carbon Fiber materials with high resolution
Tungsten Carbide nozzle prints exceptionally well with abrasive materials, besides regular filaments. Simply change filament type, no more hustle with switching nozzles.
A 0.9mm Tungsten Carbide nozzle is the factory default.
LSP electro mechanism prevents print layer shifting in case of motor skipping
Custom made aerospace grade carbon fiber bed heats up to 110C/230F
CF bed provides the best part-to-bed adhesion with minimum thermal expansion
100% automatic bed leveling and calibration done by a couple of button clicks
UPS battery backup connection ready
On-board print bed protector to prevent print head damage
Fast print processing powered by 32bit controller
No worry about filament run-out! Built-in filament movement sensor enables print pause when filament runs out during printing. Once filament is refilled, your printer will go back and continue printing.
Smart filament travel management system enables smooth filament travel, no tangle, no breaks.
Onboard Raspberry Pi computer with WiFi connection or Ethernet local area connection
Onboard webcam
Remote Control of 2x4+ printer via smartphone or computer
Built-in enclosure structure enhances print quality
Sitting on 4 wheels, your printer can be easily moved through a 3ft door way
Onboard filament dry box is a new feature designed for keeping your filament always dry during the entire printing process.
Durable build with top quality parts from reputable suppliers: Hiwin rails; Cicoil flexible silicone cables, Misumi precision extrusions, etc.
Open market filaments. Tested materials are PETG, PLA, ASA, PA6GF/Nylon Glass Fiber, PA6CF/ Nylon Carbon Fiber, flexible TPU
Open source printer interface Octoprint is specially customized for MAKEiT2x4+ users. It’s preloaded, ready to use.
Tested print profiles shared with users to ensure an easy and fast onboard process
Simple and easy maintenance thanks to the modular builds. Control unit is located outside the printer frame, which can be detached and swapped quickly to minimize downtime.
Powered by US regular wall outlet: line breaker 20A / 120V / 60Hz, no need for extra electricity arrangement
Your right-to-fix will not void printer’s factory warranty if you choose to fix minor issues
Steel frame structure for extra durability and stability
Thanks to its min thermal expansion, the aerospace grade carbon fiber hot bed on MAKEiT2x4+ has the best part-to-bed adhesion on such a large scale. This bed heats up to 230F /110C. Bed leveling and calibration is 100% done for you automatically, just a simple click of a button on the interface, no more twisting screws.
Each printer comes with an onboard filament dry box. It is designed for keeping your filament dry during the entire printing process. This is a must-have to ensure good quality print when we print nylon filaments. The digital reader on the box shows current humidity and temperature
Onboard webcam & Raspberry Pi enable local and remote control & monitor via computer /phone/tablet
Options of WiFi wireless connection or Ethernet cable connection
The advantage of keeping the control unit outside is two folds:
Built-in enclosure structure enhances print quality
Sitting on 4 wheels, your printer can be easily moved through a 3ft door way
Red Emergency Stop Button enables a user to stop printing immediately. Print can be resumed without interruption once this button is released.
MAKEiT2x4+’s powerful extrusion system is capable of heating up to 450C/842F
Tungsten Carbide nozzle prints exceptionally well with abrasive materials, besides regular filaments. Simply change filament type, no more hustle with switching nozzles.
Factory default 0.9mm tungsten carbide nozzle module can be easily swapped with a 0.6mm nozzle module for finer details.
Built-in filament movement sensor detects filament tangling, blockage and filament run-out.
This video was shot on a MAKEiT2x4 model. The filament run-out function performs the same way on a MAKEiT2x4+ model.
No worry about filament run-out! Built-in filament movement sensor enables print pause when filament runs out during printing. Once filament is refilled, your printer will go back and continue printing.
The filament movement sensor can also tell if the filament is tangled at the spool end, or the nozzle is too close to the carbon fiber bed. If either happens, printhead will pause the printing, park to the side, waiting for the user to intervene.
No need to worry about manually adjusting filament tension. It is set! Every print is extruded with the right amount of filament, leading to top print quality.
Smart filament travel management system enables smooth filament travel, no tangle, no break.
We have designed MAKEiT large format 3D printers to specialize in 3d printing PA6GF (Glass Fiber Nylon), and PA6CF (Carbon Fiber Nylon) filaments. These filaments are industrial grade, stiff and strong, highly heat resistant. There is 20% carbon fiber in PA6CF, and 25% glass fiber in the PA6GF blend. We regularly print these materials at 300C. Numerous car body plugs have been 3D printed out of PA6GF filaments. Some PA6CF parts have been installed on race car bodies. These materials are the best material to make car plugs, master molds, or end-use parts. You can sand them freely with a power sander. Unlike PLA, they don't melt, nor deform. They are durable, lightweight, stiff, strong, work with body fillers and epoxies too.
For your convenience, a customized Octoprint interface is pre-installed on the on-board Raspberry Pi. We have modified major Octoprint functions, and made them as simple and functional as possible, to fit MAKEiT owner's needs. For example, the "bed calibration" function is just a click of the button. "Z Height, or nozzle-to-bed-distance" is part of on-the-fly adjustments that can be done real-time if needed while you start the first layer printing. This way you can dial in the right distance for your print before saving that info. Since Octoprint is an open-source interface, you are more than welcome to add your own flavor once you are familiar with MAKEiT printers.
