FFF 3D Printer vs. SEAMHex
The Benefits of the Extrusion Unit and Hexapod Printing Bed
Leave behind the limitations of small desktop filament FFF 3D printers and step into the world of industrial-grade manufacturing with the SEAMHex. Experience a significant leap in speed as the SEAMHex enables rapid production of industrial-relevant components. With its advanced technology and continuous development, the SEAMHex empowers you to efficiently produce high-quality parts at an unprecedented pace.
FFF / FDM 3D Printer
SEAMHex 3D Printer
Only suitable for 3D printing of small parts or prototype due to its low printing speed and extrusion capacity
Limited material options due to the lower temperature performance of their small filament extruders.
High costs due to expensive filament and substantial material waste generated by support structures
High printing speeds and granule-based extrusion allow for high productivity of industrial parts
High material compatibility (with reinforcing fibers) thanks to extrusion-based 3D printing tool SEAM
Highly cost-efficient (up to 200x cheaper) thanks to the use of pellet and repelletizing of residual material

The 3 Key Components of SEAMHex 3D Printer
The Next Level of Industrial 3D Printing
1. Machine Concept
Experience the pinnacle of manufacturing technology with the SEAMHex Industrial 3D Printer. Designed as a breakthrough in efficiency and quality, the SEAMHex features a unique machine concept. With unrivaled dynamics and 7-axis motion capability, it is the perfect solution for many production industries. The SEAMHex Industrial 3D Printer showcases our unwavering commitment to innovation and engineering excellence by setting a new standard in high-tech additive manufacturing with the unique SEAM extrusion unit.
2. Extrusion Unit
The SEAM unit (from 1A Technologies) revolutionizes industrial 3D printing. Integrated into the SEAMHex Industrial 3D Printer, it extrudes granulate material at high temperatures, depositing layer by layer through its nozzle. With an impressive output rate of 10kg/h, its most remarkable feature is the patented bypass nozzle, allowing dynamic regulation of material extrusion. This capability enables seamless transitions without plastic leakage. Additionally, expelled material is regranulated and reused, promoting sustainable production through closed-loop recycling. It can extrude various plastics, elastomers, polypropylene, and even a PA6 with 40% carbon fiber content.
3. Hexapod Printing Bed
The Hexapod table of the SEAMHex 3D printer is based on parallel kinematics, making it exceptionally fast. With a printing speed of up to 1m/s, the SEAMHex is one of the world’s fastest 3D printers. Its Hexapod kinematics provides 6-axis printing capabilities, including tilting up to 45° and torsional movement at 20°. The print bed is versatile, offering a heated option and a large print size of 1100mm x 800mm x 600mm. It can handle parts weighing up to 15kg, making it suitable for various applications.
