How Much Does a Large Build Volume 3D Printer Cost?

When discussing large 3D printers, one question frequently arises: "How much does a large build volume 3D printer cost?" Given that their printing capabilities far exceed those of standard 3D printers, many service bureau owners assume that "bigger means more expensive" and label these printers as costly. But is this assumption accurate?

Beyond Size: Technical Advancements in Large-Scale 3D Printers

The cost of large 3D printers is not solely determined by their size. The technical advancements in these machines are significant. Consider the RSPro series additive manufacturing systems by UnionTech, for instance. These systems feature innovative automatic calibration technology for multi-scanner setups, ensuring precise positioning and overcoming the challenges associated with large calibration plates. Traditional manual calibration methods involve 89 calibration points, but UnionTech's multi-scanner 3D printers can establish 1798 calibration points using a spot position detector, achieving a fully automated calibration process with an accuracy of 0.06-0.1mm. This automation eliminates human error, ensuring the stability and precision of printed parts.

Technological Upgrades and Market Pricing

Furthermore, the RSPro systems come equipped with built-in coating scrapers and dual or triple laser molding, among other technological upgrades. These advancements not only enhance the performance and reliability of the 3D printers but also impact their manufacturing cost, subsequently influencing their market price.


Unique Advantages of Large-Format 3D Printers

Overall, large-format 3D printers offer unique advantages that smaller devices cannot match. However, their larger size and the advanced technology involved in their production do lead to higher market prices compared to standard 3D printers.
