Modix Modix MAMA-1700 Large-Volume Pellet 3D Printer Kit
The Modix MAMA-1700 is a large-format Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF) pellet 3D printer designed for industrial and professional applications demanding truly massive print volumes. With a build envelope of 1,700 × 1,000 × 1,000 mm, it enables production of full-scale prototypes, tooling, molds, and end-use parts that would be impossible on conventional filament-based machines. By 3D printing directly from pellet material rather than filament, the MAMA-1700 dramatically reduces material costs while maintaining high throughput and output quality.
- Massive 1,700 × 1,000 × 1,000 mm build volume for industrial-scale parts and assemblies.
- FGF (Fused Granulate Fabrication) technology 3D prints directly from low-cost plastic pellets.
- Significantly reduced material costs compared to standard filament-based 3D printers.
- Part of the Modix MAMA pellet printer family, scalable from 1,000 mm to 3,000 mm X-axis lengths.

Modix MAMA-1700 3D Printer
Massive MAMA
Modix MAMA-1700 FGF pellet 3D printer offers a 1700 x 1000 x 1000 mm build volume for industrial large-format additive manufacturing.
Key Features of the Modix MAMA-1700 3D Printer:
- Compatible with Modix add-ons, including Filament Dryer and Power Distribution Units.
- Designed for professional and industrial use cases: tooling, jigs, fixtures, molds, and large prototypes.
- Contact Modix directly for custom pricing and configuration options tailored to your workflow.
Reducing Material Waste
The MAMA-1700 uses Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF), extruding raw plastic pellets instead of filament spools. This opens the door to a vastly wider range of materials at a fraction of the cost, making high-volume and large-format production economically viable. Industrial thermoplastics commonly available in pellet form can be processed directly, giving engineers and manufacturers greater material flexibility.
- 3D prints from raw plastic pellets, which dramatically lower material cost vs. filament.
- Access to a wide range of industrial-grade thermoplastic materials.
- High-throughput extrusion suited for large, dense parts.
Massive Build Volume
With a build envelope spanning 1,700 mm along the X-axis and a full cubic meter in Y and Z, the MAMA-1700 is built for parts that cannot be 3D printed on desktop or mid-range machines. Produce full-size prototypes, large molds, architectural models, and industrial fixtures in a single print run. Eliminate the need for assembly and bonding of smaller sections.
- 1,700 × 1,000 × 1,000 mm build space for truly large-scale fabrication.
- 3D Print full-size tooling, molds, and structural components in one piece.
- Reduce post-processing time by eliminating multi-part assembly.
The MAMA is Modular
The MAMA-1700 integrates into the broader Modix ecosystem, supporting a range of professional add-ons to enhance performance and reliability. Options such as the Filament Dryer, Griffin Ultra calibration tools, and Power Distribution Units allow you to tailor the system to your specific production environment. Modix's dedicated support infrastructure and spare parts availability ensure minimal downtime in demanding settings.
- Compatible with Modix Filament Dryer and Power Distribution Units.
- Griffin Ultra and IDEX calibration tools are available for precision dialing.
- Spare parts and ongoing Modix support keep operations running smoothly.
