The Method XL is the ultimate 3D printing solution for large-scale projects. Print with industrial-grade materials and exceptional dimensional accuracy. The patented Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature (VECT) 100 thermal regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment. The result? Parts are 2x stronger on the z-axis, and 2x more accurate across the board. The Method XL also has a heated build plate for even better adhesion and temperature control. RapidRinse support material on the Method XL enables the fastest support removal for complex FDM prints. Create the geometries you want – in any orientation and watch those water-soluble supports dissolve before your eyes.
