Used STRATASYS Fortus 400MC #293820735 for sale

STRATASYS Fortus 400MC is a professional-grade additive manufacturing system that falls under the category of fused deposition modeling (FDM) technology. Specifically designed for advanced prototyping and production applications, Fortus 400MC is renowned for its high precision, accuracy, and reliability in creating functional prototypes, tooling, and end-use parts. At the core of STRATASYS Fortus 400MC is its large build envelope, measuring 355 mm x 254 mm x 254 mm (14 in x 10 in x 10 in), which allows for the production of relatively large parts or multiple smaller parts in a single build. This generous build size, combined with the machine's high-speed production capabilities, makes it an ideal choice for industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and consumer goods. Fortus 400MC utilizes industrial-grade thermoplastics, including ABS-M30, ASA, PC-ABS, and ULTEM, among others, to produce parts that exhibit high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. These materials are available in various colors, allowing for the creation of visually appealing prototypes and end-use products. One of the key features of STRATASYS Fortus 400MC is its advanced temperature control system, which ensures consistent material properties and part quality throughout the printing process. The machine is equipped with a heated build chamber, heated build platform, and dual material bays, all of which contribute to creating a stable printing environment that minimizes warping, delamination, and other common printing defects. Fortus 400MC is also known for its ease of use and automation features, thanks to the proprietary Insight software that comes bundled with the system. Insight allows users to optimize part orientation, toolpaths, and material usage to achieve the desired mechanical properties and surface finish. Moreover, the machine's intuitive touchscreen interface enables users to monitor print progress, adjust settings on-the-fly, and troubleshoot issues with ease. In terms of print resolution, STRATASYS Fortus 400MC offers layer thicknesses ranging from 0.1 mm to 0.33 mm (0.004 in to 0.013 in), allowing users to customize the balance between print speed and part quality based on their specific requirements. Additionally, the machine supports soluble support material for complex geometries, which can be easily removed post-processing to achieve smooth, intricate features. For industries that demand traceability and validation, Fortus 400MC offers optional features such as a barcode scanner, advanced security protocols, and material certification to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations. These capabilities make the machine suitable for applications that require documentation of material properties, process parameters, and part traceability. Overall, STRATASYS Fortus 400MC sets a high standard for additive manufacturing equipment with its combination of large build volume, industrial-grade materials, advanced temperature control, user-friendly software, and customizable print settings. Whether used for rapid prototyping, tooling production, or end-use parts manufacturing, Fortus 400MC delivers consistent, high-quality results that meet the demands of modern engineering and design applications.
