Working on a part for work, I need a printer that can easily print in nylon without modifications.
We tried Xometry and a few other sites, too expensive.
Bed size minimum is 10.75x7x7
budget is $1700

If you want a dedicated nylon machine, the Markforged machines are quite something

Dremel 3D printers are high-performance printers which can print difficult overhangs (up to 80 degrees). They deliver ultra fine resolution with 50 Micron (1/20th of mm) layers in print thickness. They are manufactured using high quality components, internally tested by Bosch (800 hours) for safety and performance and 3rd party tested by UL.

Re: Large nylon printer for work project
I'd check the reviews on YouTube for the Dremel machines...I haven't heard much about them that impressed me
Re: Large nylon printer for work project
I'm very new here, but with a budget that high couldn't one buy a nice size printer like the CR-10 or Sidewinder and modify it with a hotter hotend for nylon, or do a whole new extruder that can run upwards to 270?
There's several threads online where people have modded Sidewinders to print nylon and carbon fiber.
That would be < 50% of that budget.
