Optimized with a 1.5 compression ratio and offering mass flow stability of less than 5%, the Pulsar™ Atom ensures consistent and reliable material feed, minimizing print errors and eliminating the need for reprints. This level of dependability is especially critical in fast-paced, time-sensitive environments.

Pulsar™ Atom adapts to your needs

The Pulsar™ Atom extruder is built for adaptability, making it an ideal choice for industrial 3D printing applications. Its over 45 degrees of movement around the nozzle makes it perfect for robotic and non-planar printing setups. With nozzle sizes ranging from 0.4 mm to 2.5 mm, the extruder offers flexibility to meet a wide range of printing needs.

This pellet extruder is also universally compatible with both 110 V and 220 V power, as well as open-source firmware (Marlin, RepRap, Repetier, Klipper) and popular 3D printer controller boards. This makes it an excellent fit for robotic arms and advanced printing setups. Furthermore, Pulsar™ Atom extruder is designed to allow for mounting various accessories such as cooling add-ons or third-party bed leveling devices.

What’s included?

The default package includes a comprehensive set of components: a cable harness, the Dyze digital stepper motor driver, and an Ethernet/IP stepper driver, along with a 25 A 660 V AC Solid State Relay (SSR). Clients have the option to exclude any of these elements upon request. The nozzle size can be chosen from 0.4 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.8 mm, 2.5 mm, depending on the production needs.

The default cooling method provided is air cooling, but a liquid cooling setup can be chosen as an alternative. Additionally, while the extruder comes with a part cooling setup, it is also available for purchase without this feature if desired. To get more information click on the “Get information” button.

Detailed information on the Pulsar™ Atom extruder’s specifications, installation, use, maintenance, material compatibility and limitations can be found on the Dyze Design website. It is crucial that the document is read in its entirety as it contains vital information that will help prevent malfunctions and damage to the extruder. In the Attachments section the user can find the extruder’s technical datasheet.

It must be kept in mind that the Pulsar™ Atom extruder must be handled with caution and appropriate protective equipment as it reaches very high temperatures during its operation. Make sure the extruder has cooled down completely before performing maintenance tasks. Exposed wires and components should also be handles with caution to avoid electric shock.

What’s more, certain polymers used in this extruder can pose hazards. It is the user's responsibility to review the safety data sheets for the polymers being used and to handle them appropriately. If required, a secure enclosure with suitable filtration should be installed to manage and reduce any emissions produced during operation. What’s more, certain acidic polymers left in the extruder’s barrel for too long can cause the equipment’s degradation. More information on this can be found on the Dyze Design website.
