Buy Hydra PRO

I've teamed up with a few different stores around the world offerering the printed parts and everything you need for the build so you won't need anything outside of the kit:

• Veetec3D (EU)

Hydra PRO has a strict non-commercial license, it can only be sold with licensing through Hume Beam Engineering Solutions.

Update February 19, 2024

Hydra PRO version 1.01 is released. I have listened to your feedback and it has a number of improvements, mainly to printability but some other improvements as well. It now has optional but recommended “built-in” spine support for the main middle piece as well as support blocks for the left and right pieces between the two main walls, this will ensure a warp free print for even ABS and ASA prints.

Changes from 1.00:

• Built in (optional) supports for the left, middle and right main pieces. The supports are recommended but adds to the print time and uses some more material, although they're low infill and 1 wall only in the Print Profiles. In total, a full Hydra PRO set is now around 700 g give or take. If you manually skip the supports by removing these support blocks it will be less but I would highly recommend you keep them enabled.
• New rear rollers, self-centering style similar to the Improved Rear Rollers for Hydra AMS. An optional rear roller without a guide is available as well for those not using RFID spools.
• Left and right pieces have thicker and also an extra support wall below the curved surface.
• Hex cutouts were removed from all areas except where they are required, which is around the RFID boards. The hex cutouts were also made smaller in size for printability but increased in numbers.
• RFID slots widened clearance by 0.10 mm.
• Rear fastening slots increased range so the whole Hydra PRO inlay can adjusted front and back if required.
• Optional alignment tool optimized.
• An extra slot for the rear rollers for even smaller spools.
• Increased fillets and chambers for printability.
• Closed the gaps near the top near the front feeder mount for printability as well as redesigned feeder mount, strengthened and feeder cable cutout.

Version 1.01 is backwards compatible with the printed parts from 1.00 should you need to update just some parts.

About

This is a remix of the current Hydra PRO but for large printers with a +300 mm wide print bed. If you have a 350 mm wide bed or larger you can print it normally and do not have to rotate it, if your bed is 300 mm wide exactly you need to rotate it 45 degrees in order for it to fit.
