3D Fused Deposition Modeling (FDMl Printer
Added: Sep 15, 2017 6:41 pm The US Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service in Albany Ca has a need for a commercially available FDM printer wich characteristics listed below. -Large build size of at least 14x12x12in.-Ability to print ABS, polycarbonate, and nylon.-Easily removable support structure for printing overhangs and steep angles.-Ability to print various infill percentages.Alternate system to the Stratasys as presented below will be considered on an or equal basis to the following:3D Fused Deposition Modeling (FDMl Printer Salient Characteristics• System must be new• Color LCD Monitor• Maximum Machine size: 34"W X 28"D X 64"H• Minimum printing/build envelope 14" X 12" X 12".• Utilizes an enclosed build chamber with heat. Helps the materials form together which increases accuracy• Minimum of 2 material bays (1 model/ 1 support)• Capability to print/build layers in range from .005" - .013" for high resolution depending on material• Produce parts within an accuracy of± .127 mm (± .005 in.) or± .0015 mm/mm (± .0015 in/in),Whichever is greater.• Soluble support structure system for steep angles or overhangs depending on material used during the build.• Includes ultrasonic system to remove soluble support structure after printing/build completiono Minimum chamber size must match minimum print/build envelope• Utilizes textured plastic build platforms to prevent part from lifting during the print process• Ability to print in solid fill, sparse high density, or sparse low density interior infill• Utilizes exchangeable extrusion tips in print head• Includes onboard calibration capability• Utilizes sealed material cartridges• Capable of printing the following materials:ABS-M30ABS-E5D7155-21000-V Fortus 380mc Base unit Installation Onsite user training 3D PRINTER BUNDLE, CONSISTS OF:- CE Conformance- Welcome Kit, Fortus 380 (PN:155-00020)- Insight SoftwareMaterial Options and UpgradesStandard Material Bundle 380mc- Includes software license that enables: ABS-M30, ABS-M30i, AB5-ESD7, ASA- Two (2) ABS-M30 (Natural) Filament Canister- Two (2) ASA (Natural) Filament Canister- Two (2) SR30 Soluble Release Support Canister- One (1) T12/T12SR30 Set- One (1) T16/T12SR30 Set- One (1) Foundation Sheet (ABS/PC) Fortus 380mcNYLON 12/SRll0 Material Option, Fortus 380mc- allows Fortus 380mc to run NYLON 12 material- Four (4) NYLON 12 Model Material Canisters (355-02230)- Four (4) SR-110 Soluble Support Material Canisters (355-03130)- Two (2) Package of Nylon Build Sheets (qty 20) (PN 355-00700)-Two (2) T16 Tip Set (T16/T12SR-100) (PN 511-11201)-Two (2) T12 Tip Set (T12/T12SR-100) (PN 511-11101)FOUNDATIONFoundation Sheet (ABS/PC) Fortus 380mc (pkg- Fortus 380mc (ABS-M30, ABS-ESD7, ASA, PC)MODELING MATERIALABS-M30 (Ivory) Rlament Canister, Fortus Plus, 921nA3 (1510 cc)ASA (Black) Rlament Canister, Fortus Plus, 92 ln113 (1510 cc)Omega Pro 1900 Ultrasonic Support Removal System for 360mc/380mc/400mc/450mc- Two year warranty-18"x18"x14" Work EnvelopeP400-SC Soluble Concentrate (case of 12)Submit completed SF 18 with supporting catalog literature via email to Fred.gifford@ars.usda.gov as listed in this notice. ag32sds170101 Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Central Program Planning Coordination and Support
