    Product Overview

    Dual-Technology Platform

    The MAMA-1700 combines FGF pellet extrusion for high-throughput production with the Griffin Ultra filament head for fine detail work — two technologies in one machine, delivered as a self-assembly kit that fits through any standard doorway.

    Why Choose the MAMA-1700?

    • Dual extrusion technology — FGF pellet + Griffin Ultra filament head on one platform
    • Pellet output: up to 3 kg/hour at flow rates of 500 mm³/s
    • Filament output: up to 0.5 kg/hour at flow rates of 160 mm³/s
    • Massive 1700mm Z-axis build height for full-scale industrial parts
    • Material freedom: custom polymer blends, recycled plastics, functional additives
    • Self-assembly kit format — fits through narrow doorways, install anywhere
    • Supports PP, PE, ABS, ASA, PA, TPU and custom pellet blends
    • Enclosed heated chamber up to 450°C for warping-free, consistent results

    Material Freedom at Industrial Scale

    Break free from expensive filament supply chains. The MAMA-1700 uses standard industrial plastic pellets — the same raw materials used in injection molding — starting at just $3 per kilogram. Create your own custom polymer blends, use recycled plastics, or add functional additives for specialized applications.

    The interchangeable extruder system gives you two printers in one. Switch to the FGF pellet head for maximum throughput on large parts, or mount the Griffin Ultra filament head when you need finer layer resolution. Projects that once required days can now be completed in hours.

    Why MAMA-1700

    Engineered for Performance

    From faster ROI to total material freedom, the MAMA-1700 redefines what's possible in large-format additive manufacturing.

    Fused Granulate Fabrication

    Print directly with plastic pellets at flow rates up to 500 mm³/s. The FGF pellet head delivers up to 3 kg/hour — turning multi-day projects into same-day deliveries.

    Faster Return on Investment

    Material costs from $3/kg — up to 10x cheaper than filament. Combined with dramatically faster print speeds, the MAMA-1700 pays for itself faster than any comparable system.

    Dual-Head Throughput

    500 mm³/s with the pellet extruder, 160 mm³/s with the Griffin Ultra filament head. Choose the right tool for each job without switching machines.

    Interchangeable Extruders

    Hot-swap between the FGF pellet head for bulk production and the Griffin Ultra filament head for fine detail. Two production modes, zero compromises.

    1700mm Build Height

    One of the tallest build volumes available in additive manufacturing. Print full-scale furniture, architectural elements, and industrial tooling in a single run.

    Production Ready

    Engineered for 24/7 operation with robust linear rail construction, auto-leveling, and enclosed heated chamber for consistent, repeatable results.

    Material Freedom

    Use recycled plastics, custom polymer blends, and functional additives. The open-material system accepts any standard pellet — no proprietary lock-in.

    Self-Assembly Kit

    Delivered as a modular kit that fits through narrow doorways and standard freight elevators. Professional assembly support available. Install anywhere.

    R&D Accelerator

    Trusted by research labs like Vilnius University Advanced Material Laboratory. Rapidly iterate on new materials, geometries, and processes.
