Hydra Models
The Hydras are our Gantry models, introduced in 2016. In these models we move the heads in the X/Y and the bed only in the Z, allowing for faster print speeds and heavier fixturing.
Comparison
The following chart compares and contrasts the various Hydra models:
Designation | Hydra 16A Freestanding Heated |
Hydra 17A Benchtop Heated | |
---|---|---|---|
Hydra 16A-S Standard |
Hydra 16A-T Tall |
Hydra 340 | |
