Product Overview
Print Head
Our print head is sourced from E3D, a market leader from the UK. This high end print head
is widely supported by filament vendors providing compatibility with almost any type of
filament. This modular print head allows various configurations that can meet your very
specific 3d printing preference. http://E3D-Online.com
E3D Titan Extruder - Lightweight yet powerful extruder, with 3:1 gear reduction the E3D
Titan extruder provides both high printing resolution and reliable fast printing.
A unique drive gear shape allows the tiny filament chips to fall out by themselves, reducing
the need for periodical cleaning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcrz-_VzsQU Titan Extruder
E3D V6 Hotend - The famous E3D V6 is a leading modular ecosystem of various high
quality hotend components. This allows high level of customization that can meet any
printing need. Our offering includes the high flow version of E3D V6 named Volcano
and three Volcano brass nozzles: 0.4, 0.6 & 0.8 mm diameter.
Additional nozzles:- Due to its vertical and longer melting zone Volcano allows faster
printing with larger nozzle diameters. The available volcano nozzles diameters
are: 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 & 1.2 mm. Switching to the standard v6 setup will allow
you smaller nozzles of 0.35mm ,0.3 & 0.25 mm.

Print Bed
Mic 6® Aluminum Cast Plate is our choice for the bed plate. It is made in the USA
by a company named Alcoa. The manufacturing of this tooling plate is the one of
most advanced in the cast plate industry and it is well known for its flatness due to
a high quality milling process.
PEI sheet – PEI (Polyetherimide) is one of the best options for 3d printing build
surface. It is reusable, do not require additional glue on it and it provides great
gripping force that reduce the risk of warping 3d printing objects. We supply a
660x620mm sheet size that is large enough to cover more than the actual printing
build volume. It comes ready to apply with a 3M adhesive sheet.
Autonic PID controller – This new improved temperature controller is keeping the
bed at constant temperature along the entire printing time. Stable printing
temperature is important for a smooth printing surface and in order to avoid
warping.
Dual Zone Silicon heater – The print bed heater is divided into two heating zones.
The inner smaller heater at the size of 20x20cm allows printing of small objects
with minimal energy consumption.
Insulation –6mm thick silicon foam attached to the heater bottom provides both
energy efficiency and temperature stability, especially during cold seasons.
Bed leveling sensor - our default bed leveling sensor is an inductive sensor.
For customers who prefer printing on glass, we can provide BL Touch sensor.
BL Touch is a solenoid sensor that is measuring the bed by a touch of a pin.
BL Touch is an optional add-on and it comes prewired for Big-60.

Optional Add-ons
Printing with ABS – ABS and several other filament types are prone to high level of
shrinking during cooling. When printing large models , even small shrinking percentage
may result in considerable nominal shrinking. Thankfully, several premium filament
vendors have developed “easy to print” versions of popular filaments such as ABS. One
particular vendor we are happy with is Formfutura and their line of “EasyFil ABS “ which
provides limited warping: https://www.formfutura.com/page/products
You may also consider ABS alternatives such as Co-Polyester based filaments.
Colorfabb is a good starting point: https://colorfabb.com/materials/co-polyesters
Printing with high Temperature Industrial Filaments – Although the print head is
compatible with high temperature printing of up to 400c (PT 100 Kit upgrade), several
high temperature filaments require an active heated chamber in order to print well.
The optional closed enclosure helps stabilizing the ambient temperature around the
printed model but it might not be enough for all types industrial filaments.
Please consult filament vendors for the required printing spec.

Software
Firmware– Modix big60 firmware is based on the open source Marlin. Marlin is a very
popular 3D printing firmware with wide support and active community. Modix is proud
to be a top sponsor for the leading Marlin programmer. We provide sources of the
firmware with documentation of all the modifications made into it. http://marlinfw.org/
Slicing Software - Modix big60 users can enjoy a large variety of slicing software. Slic3r
and Cura are free and Simplify3D cost 150 USD. Simplify3D is a great software that can
manipulate support structure much and provides overall better and faster printing.
Slic3r Ultimaker Cura Simplify3D.
