INDUSTRIAL HIGH-TEMPERATURE 3D PRINTING — WITHOUT THE SIX-FIGURE PRICE TAG

The Vision Miner 22IDEX V4 is an open-platform industrial FFF 3D printer capable of printing PEEK, ULTEM™, PEKK, PPSU, and advanced composites — the same materials used in aerospace, defense, medical, and energy applications. Unlike enterprise systems costing $40,000 – $150,000+, the 22IDEX V4 starts at $14,900 with no proprietary material fees, no license costs, and full open-source firmware.

As an authorized Vision Miner dealer, Ripperden Resources provides local support and can assist with setup, training, and ongoing technical guidance alongside Vision Miner’s US-based team.

Why v4? The 22IDEX v4 takes the proven platform — already running nearly 5 years in production across Fortune 500 aerospace firms and independent fabrication shops — and adds 100+ micro-improvements including upgraded insulation, auto-squaring, higher-temp performance, and improved ITAR/NDAA compliance features.

TRUE IDEX DUAL INDEPENDENT EXTRUSION

Both hotends operate fully independently at 500°C — this is not a shared-gantry dual extrusion system. True IDEX enables:

• Multi-material printing (e.g. PEEK body + soluble supports)
• Duplication Mode — print two identical parts simultaneously
• Mirror Mode — print mirrored part pairs at the same time
• Mixed nozzle sizes on both extruders simultaneously

ONE-BUTTON AUTOMATED CALIBRATION

• Single button launches full calibration sequence
• Automated XY toolhead alignment via CNC-style probe — no alignment prints needed
• Triple Z-motor mechanical bed leveling — bed physically aligns to the nozzle plane
• Adaptive multi-point mesh leveling (customizable to hundreds of points)
• Automatic belt tensioning and all-axis auto-squaring

OPEN MATERIAL SYSTEM — NO RESTRICTIONS

Use any 1.75mm filament from any supplier. Compatible high-performance materials include:

• Ultra-polymers: PEEK, PEKK-A, PEKK-C, ULTEM™ 1010, ULTEM™ 9085, PPSU, PAEK, PPS, TPI
• Composites: Carbon Fiber PEEK, Glass Fiber PEEK, CF Nylon, CF PETG
• Engineering: ABS, ASA, Nylon PA6/PA12, PETG, PC, PCTG, TPU
• Supports: Soluble BVOH / PVA support materials
• FAR 25.853 and UL94 V0 rated materials available

INDUSTRIAL THERMAL PERFORMANCE

• 500°C hotends — both extruders reach full temperature
• 200°C heated bed with kinematic triple-Z self-leveling mounts
• 100°C+ actively heated chamber
• Triple-wall / IR-reflective insulation
• Dual-pane, fully-sealed front door for heat retention and operator safety
• Filament stored inside heated chamber during printing — keeps hygroscopic materials dry

INTEGRATED HEPA + ACTIVE CARBON FILTRATION

• Continuously scrubs particles and VOCs during printing
• Significantly reduces odors from high-temp polymers
• 2″ external fume extraction hose port for regulated/industrial environments

INDUSTRIAL MOTION SYSTEM

• Linear rails on all axes
• Ultra-wide 12mm belts with automatic tensioning
• Quad X/Y motors and triple Z motors; silent Trinamic stepper drivers
• 6 independent axes / 5 Degrees of Freedom — future-ready for non-planar printing
• Self-squaring X/Y gantry — accuracy doesn’t drift over time

CONNECTIVITY & CONTROL

• Duet-based electronics — open-source, fully documented
• Onboard color touchscreen + web-based interface (any browser, any device)
• Wi-Fi (included), Ethernet, USB, SD card
• ITAR-secure offline / air-gapped mode available
• PrusaSlicer profiles included; compatible with Cura and any RepRap slicer
• NDAA Additive Manufacturing compliant

POWER & FACILITY REQUIREMENTS

• Standard 110V / 15–20A circuit — no special infrastructure
• 220V European configuration also available
• Operating range: 18–30°C ambient
• Fits on a standard workbench

FULL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
