PEEK 3D Printing with Intamsys FunMat HT 3D Printer
The Funmat comes with an advanced thermal system design which includes a 90°C constant temperature chamber, 160°C heated build plate, and 450°C high-temperature extruder with all-metal hotend, making it specially designed to print PEEK and many other high-performance functional materials. The high temperature nozzle allows for the user to print with a wide range of temperatures with the provided and swappable hot ends. Print with both low temperature material like ABS, Nylon and PLA and high temperature materials like PEEK and PEKK among others. Everything is possible with an open material system with an upper temperature limit of 450°C. It's been used in every application imaginable in the Aerospace, Automotive, Medical, Engineering, Research and Oil/Gas industries.
Check out the Tech Breakdown on the Instamsys FunMat HT Enhanced High-Temperature 3D Printer.
FunMat HT Enhanced Feature Auto-Bed-Leveling For Quick and Easy Calibration
With the FunMat HT Enhanced 3D printer, Intamsys has made high temperature 3D printing even more accessible, including adding the automatic bed leveling feature to the FunMat HT. This means that with every print, your FunMat HT Enhanced 3D printer will adjust to the exact printing surface, and any adjustment to your print bed over time will be accounted for. This will ensure a much stronger first layer adhesion, which is of course the most important layer to succeeding at 3D printing.
High temperature materials such as PEKK and PEEK can come at a premium, which means you need as few failed prints as possible. The auto-bed-leveling feature included with the FunMat HT Enhanced 3D printer help ensure that every time you press "Print", it can be a successful one.
New Ceramic Build Plate Ensures More Efficient and More Effecting Heating
Intamsys looked at every aspect of the FunMat HT when designing the Enhanced edition, and nowhere is that more prevalent than in the new build plate. By upgrading from borosilicate glass to a glass-ceramic composite, as well as using PI film, the FunMat HT Enhanced 3D printer build plate boasts much higher inflexibility and less thermal deformation, both for the plate itself and for your prints. By ensuring consistent heating across all of your first layer, prints of any material have a much easier time remaining adhered from start to finish. This means less iteration and more success.
Improved Hotend Design with All-Metal Nozzle for Less Downtime at High Temps
Intamsys designed a spectacular hotend for their original FunMat HT, but they collected user feedback and improved the design for the Enhanced FunMat HT. This new Hotend has an improved design that maintains the high temperatures required for engineering grade 3D printing filament, but it's less likely to clog during printing, which can be costly to your production uptime.
The Hotend is also more easily swappable than before, so you can remove and replace it much more easily, thanks to its modular design.
Upgraded Enclosure Keeps Heat In and Saves on Energy
The beating heart of the FunMat HT is the heated build chamber, ensuring that every printed layer adheres properly in the toasty 90C air, and the Intamsys Enhanced FunMat HT has a more efficient insulation system which ensures that heat stays where it belongs, engulfing your print. The cool air outside of the printer stays where it is too, so there's less load on the heaters, and the printer stays nice and cool to the touch.
Lower power use and greater safety is why this high temperature 3D printer is truly Enhanced.

Questions
Does it have a support filament head
Is any special software required to work with printer ?
Does it use a 8 bit or 32 bit board ?
What is the country of origin for this printer?
Can you ship it to Taiwan? Slower shipping is ok. How much will shipping cost be?
A competitor white paper about printing with polycarbonate says material can be layed down more quickly with a 1 mm nozzle. Are larger nozzles available and supported?
Does this printer required a dedicated room or exhaust for fumes?
Will this printer be capable of creating layers that fuse together? In general, the weakest part of a 3d print is often the fused/bond strength between different layers so I would like to know if this is capable of producing structures with a similar bonding property to that of injection molding.
One Guest asked if the printer came with both the "standard hotend" and the "high-temp hotend".....the answer was cryptic, as it only mentioned various nozzle sizes that were included. Are both of the hotends included? Or, is the only difference which nozzle you're using on the SAME hotend?
What are the weight and dimensions of this machine?
What slicer does this machine run with?
will you be making any review videos of this new printer soon?
Does the filament enclosure also double as a dryer?
In the description it says that the bed is a ceramic glass composite however in the specs. it shows borosilicate glass. Which is it?
What is the actual size of the printer? Footprint and total height?
The technical specs mention both a "standard hotend" and a "high-temp hotend". Does this price include both, or do you have to order the high-temp hotend separately?
Is the firmware used by the FunMat HT Enhanced a derivative of Marlin (as is the firmware for the older FunMat HT)? If so, as Marlin is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/blob/1.1.x/LICENSE) , which allows derivative work but requires the corresponding source code to be made available, do you provide the source code to the firmware for the FunMat HT Enhanced?
Great question. I would love an answer before spending 1/3 of an automobile on a 3D printer. I've been burned too many times.
@Roger @rhbruning Yes.
Yes it is and they are in violation of the GPL.
As their website only lists the .hex files (https://www.intamsys.com/download-center/), you can't edit the firmware. So the source code is not readily available. When you contact Intamsys you don't get an answer. I have done business with Matterhackers in the past, and these guys are awesome, but not Intamsys. I regret getting the Funmat HT enhanced as there is almost no support or community groups for it. Oh and my upgraded CR-10 mini can out print this thing any day with speed and quality. How can I trust it to print the "costly" materials if I can't even get consistent low cost materials like pla, abs, and petg to print correctly.
Given that this is a make-or-break issue for some people including myself, does anyone have any more information/evidence with regards to GPL violations or lack therof?
