Engineered for Efficiency and Built for Reliability
The BigRep VIIO 250 stands out for its ability to handle complex, industrial-grade applications with ease. Its intelligently automated features reduce setup time, while its high-speed precision hardware ensures consistent results across large or small builds.
Whether you’re printing single parts or scaling production, the VIIO 250’s independent dual extrusion (IDEX) system, heated chamber, and automated print bed combine to deliver minimal downtime and maximum throughput.
Independent Dual Extruders (IDEX)
Print in multiple materials or use a dedicated support material with clean, precise separation. This IDEX system allows for greater flexibility and reliability when producing complex geometries or dual-color prototypes.
Heated Build Chamber (Up to 80°C)
An actively heated environment ensures better material adhesion, reduced warping, and improved surface quality—especially when printing engineering-grade thermoplastics.
Fully Automated Print Bed
The VIIO 250’s auto-bed leveling ensures your prints are consistently accurate and repeatable, saving time and reducing the need for manual calibration.
Precision Motion System
Achieve high-speed performance without sacrificing detail using an all new motion system optimized for smooth movements and tight tolerances across a large build area.
Intuitive Touchscreen Interface
A responsive 10” touchscreen and remote connectivity via BigRep CONNECT offer intuitive control and monitoring of every print job, whether you’re in the lab or working remotely.
Material Compatibility
Open material platform supports a wide variety of BigRep and third-party filaments, including carbon fiber composites and heat-resistant polymers.
Designed for Industrial Applications & Large Format 3D Printing
The VIIO 250 is built for real-world use in demanding environments. Its combination of speed, automation, and material versatility makes it ideal for:
Automotive: Fixtures, jigs, and functional prototypes.
