One of the main challenges of printing large objects with 3D printers is the size and weight of the printer itself. Large 3D printers can be extremely heavy and difficult to transport, which can make it difficult to set them up in a specific location. Additionally, large 3D printers require a lot of power and can generate a significant amount of heat, which can be a challenge to manage. Finally, printing large objects can be time-consuming and require a significant amount of material, which can be costly.
Despite these challenges, large 3D printers offer many benefits and are increasingly being used in a variety of industries. Another issue with 3D printing large objects is the time it takes to complete the print. 3D printing is a time-consuming process, and the larger the object, the longer it will take to print. This can be a problem for those who need to produce large objects quickly, as the time it takes to print can be prohibitively long.

But there’s a positive side to this.
​
Advancements and innovation in the engineering of such printers address the challenges, and narrow the gaps leading to improved efficiencies that large 3D printing is promising to offer. Accelerate 3D is committed to the vision that additive manufacturing is capable of, and with our technologies we’re confident in the speed and precision that can be implemented in prototyping and production manufacturing processes towards large prints, making them a reality, minimizing these challenges.
