Modix MAMA-1700
The MAMA-1700 is Modix’s flagship FGF (Fused Granulate Fabrication) 3D printer, engineered to print primarily with plastic granulates instead of filament. With its large build volume of 1,700 X 1,000 X 1,000 mm and high-throughput extrusion, the MAMA-1700 is purpose-built for fast R&D iterations and production-grade parts. Projects that once required days can now be completed in hours.
For added versatility, the MAMA-1700 also comes with Modix’s Griffin Ultra filament print head, capable of printing up to 0.5 kg per hour for detailed parts. This dual configuration allows owners to enjoy the benefits of both technologies, filament and pellets.
- High Flow Rate: Capable of delivering a flow rate of up to 500 mm³/s, enabling the printing of large-scale objects at speeds of up to 3 kilograms per hour.Material Versatility: Supports a wide range of materials including PLA, ABS, TPE, TPU, PVA, HIPS, PC, PETG, Nylon, and composites such as wood, glass fiber, and carbon fiber filled. It also accommodates recycled materials, enhancing sustainability.
- Precision and Reliability: Built with precision engineering to ensure consistent and reliable extrusion, crucial for industrial applications.
- Ease of Maintenance: Designed for easy maintenance, reducing downtime and operational costs.
- Nozzle and Screw selection – Dyze Pulsar offers nozzles from 1mm to 5mm diameter and several screws to meet your pellet 3d printing needs.
The printer is offered as a self-assembly kit, allowing installation in almost any location — even rooms with narrow doors or basement workshops where fully assembled machines wouldn’t fit.
Using plastic granules unlocks virtually unlimited material options, far beyond what filament can offer. Custom polymer blends, recycled plastics, and functional additives can be developed and tested directly in production—delivering faster innovation and greater flexibility for researchers and businesses alike.
Printing with composite pellets, such as PETG CF (Carbon Fiber) and PETG GF (Glass Fiber), results in strong, rigid parts that can withstand high impact and stress. These materials not only enhance the mechanical properties of the printed parts but also improve overall printability. The added fibers reduce material shrinkage during cooling, minimizing warping. Carbon fibers, in particular, offer superior heat dissipation, allowing for shorter layer times and enabling faster printing, especially for smaller objects.

For manufacturers, design studios, and innovators, the MAMA-1700 delivers a clear ROI by cutting both time-to-part and material expenses—thanks to pellet costs of just a few dollars per kilogram—making it a powerful platform for scaling ideas from concept to production.
