On June 12, 2015, GAIA Multitool (currently 3DArtech) released one of the largest 3D ceramics printers of its time – GAIA Multitool MAXX. It was one of three devices that would soon debut on Kickstarter. GAIA Multitool MAXX was based on delta kinematics and had a respectable build area of ⌀45 x 105 cm.
GAIA Multitool was an extremely modern for its time, multi-tasking system for professional and educational applications. It has been designed for continuous operation. Thanks to as many as 10 replaceable toolheads, it has become a universal system with very high functional values.
The MAXX version was as much as 187 cm high and was equipped with a whole host of functionalities, having as many as 10 interchangeable manufacturing tools: a head for 3D printing of ceramics (extruder for 1 liter), a head for printing Bowden-type ceramics (external tank for 10 liters), a head for cartridges (300 ml), FFF printhead with a 3 mm extruder, FFF printhead with a 1.75 mm extruder, diamond stylus for engraving inscriptions on metal and glass, knife for cutting out foil and self-adhesive letters and various stencils, e.g. paint stencils from thick foil, milling machine CNC for engraving inscriptions and any drawings, bas-reliefs, etc., a writing head for drawing PCB paths with a special felt-tip pen, and a laser engraver. Every functionality of this machine was a fully professional device…
The creators of GAIA Multitool were Paweł Rokita and Janusz Wójcik - two people of great merit to the Polish 3D printing industry, who created the largest trade fair event in Central Europe - 3D Printing Days. They are currently developing the 3DArtech company, which, in addition to GAIA Multitool, creates the SkribiArt system for multi-color 3D printing on construction grade materials, as well as utility applications in concrete.
