High-Speed Industrial FDM

Dragon

Built for speed. Designed for precision. A hybrid CoreXY driven by four XY motors puts the print head at 600 mm/s and keeps it there — across a build envelope that goes to 700 × 400 × 400 mm and a material list that runs from PLA to carbon-fibre nylon.

Dragon key features

What Makes It Fast — and Keeps It Accurate

Speed on its own is a marketing number. These are the four things that let Dragon hold tolerance while it moves.

600 mm/s Print Speed

Ultra-fast travel and print moves — batch work that used to run overnight finishes inside a shift.

Industrial Build Volumes

From 400×300×400 to 700×400×400 mm. Big single parts, or a plate packed with a production batch.

Hybrid CoreXY, 4-Motor XY

Four motors drive the XY gantry instead of two — less belt stretch, less ringing, and precision that survives the speed.

Prints the Hard Materials

PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, flexibles, PC, carbon-fibre composites and nylon — all on the same machine.

Built to run unattended

The Parts You Only Notice When They Are Missing

A machine that prints for eleven hours has to be trusted for eleven hours. These are the details that earn it.

Passive Heated Chamber

Holds internal temperature using heat from the bed and passive insulation — enough to keep industrial materials from warping, with nothing extra to fail.

Automatic Door Lock

The door locks itself during high-temperature operation. Print integrity and operator safety, handled without a procedure to remember.

Smart Sensor Suite

Filament runout and flow sensors catch the two failures that waste a whole long print, and catch them while there is still something to save.

Modular Nozzles, 0.4 – 1.2 mm

Swap for detail or for throughput. A 1.2 mm nozzle lays down bulk at a rate a 0.4 cannot approach; the 0.4 is still there when the part needs it.

5 MP Camera

Watch the build from anywhere, at a resolution where you can actually see a first layer go wrong rather than guess.

USB, Wi-Fi and LAN

Send a job over the network, drop it on a queue, or walk a stick to the machine. All three, on every Dragon.

Fracktory

Cura-Powered Slicing, Reimagined

Fracktory is developed for these machines specifically. It takes what Cura does well and adds the part Cura cannot know: profiles tuned to each Dragon, on each nozzle, in each material.

Pre-configured profiles for every model in the series. Automatic material and nozzle detection. Live print monitoring, and a drag-and-drop job queue for the days when the machine has to keep working while you do not.

Applications

What People Put On It

Jigs & Fixtures

Line-side tooling that used to be machined, made overnight and revised the next day.

Design Prototyping

Full-size functional prototypes in the material the part will finally be made from.

Architectural Installations

Large-format pieces the 700 can print whole instead of in sections that have to be joined.

Robotic End Effectors

Light, stiff carbon-fibre grippers and end-of-arm tooling built to the cell, not to a catalogue.

Education & Labs

A machine students can run hard, with the sensors and the door lock that make that survivable.

Functional Production

Short-run end-use parts, printed at a speed that makes the economics work.

Questions About Dragon

Which of the three sizes should I buy?

The one your largest real part fits in, not the largest one. 400 × 300 × 400 mm runs to 600 mm/s, 500 × 400 × 400 mm to 500 mm/s and 700 × 400 × 400 mm to 400 mm/s — the bigger the frame, the more mass there is to accelerate, so the top speed comes down as the volume goes up.

What does a passive heated chamber actually do?

It holds the heat the bed and the part are already giving off instead of letting a draught pull it away. That is what stops ABS, ASA and nylon lifting off the plate or splitting between layers on a tall print. It is not an actively heated chamber — for that, Volterra.

Can it run carbon-filled filament?

Yes — PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, flexibles, PC, CF and nylon are the published material list, with nozzles from 0.4 to 1.2 mm. Carbon-filled grades are abrasive, so ask us which nozzle material to pair with the grade you are running.

Can I leave it running overnight?

That is what the sensing is for: filament runout and flow monitoring stop the print when something goes wrong rather than after, a 5 MP camera lets you look without walking to it, and the door locks automatically while the chamber is warm.

What slicer does it use?

Fracktory, our own slicer, with profiles for the machine and the materials already in it.

How does it connect?

USB, Wi-Fi and LAN. On a floor with several machines the LAN route is usually the one that stays reliable.
