The RMF500 is a reliable, precise, and flexible 3D printer that produces high-performance end-use parts with repeatability, making it an excellent option for small batch manufacturing, as well as for other applications.
The RMF500 is specialized in printing complex workpieces with a high strength-to-weight ratio in a single job, using fiber-reinforced thermoplastics. Raise3D ensures performance from each filament spool, in addition to continuously expanding material choices.
Raise3D’s Open Filament Program (OFP) continuously collaborates with third-party filament manufacturers to identify and select top-performing filaments for Raise3D printers. OFP has now entered phase 2.0, with certified industrial-grade filaments with specific mechanical properties and guaranteed enhanced performance.
The RMF500 has four large, multipurpose filament cartridges, with each cartridge having a maximum load of 2.5kg, enabling automatic switching and positive pressure humidity control below 5% RH.
The RMF500 uses silicon carbide nozzles with a hardness of over 60 HRC to resist abrasion from carbon fiber and glass fiber materials.
Each Raise3D fiber-reinforced filament is developed with a paired support material. For example, the breakaway support filament for PA12 CF can easily break away, resulting in a clean overhang surface.
Thanks to the RMF500’s FFF technology, this 3D printer features repeatable positioning accuracy, consistent extrusion flow, a high print speed, and a huge build volume. These features enable the RMF500 to deliver large batches or workpieces in a highly efficient manner.
The RMF500 uses a linear motor-driven system, with a 1μm synchronized closed-loop system, which overwhelms traditional system with belts, pulleys, and leadscrews. This linear motor-driven system gives the RMF500 an acceleration of 2G and a speed over 1000mm/s2.
The RMF500’s build volume is of 500x500x500mm, for both single and dual extruder printing. Its vacuum manifold platform is installed with a PEI building plate with pressure detection to deliver worry-free startup and easy removal of prints.
The RMF500’s independent extrusion systems (IDEX) are manufactured using high-temperature alloys and industrial ceramic composite materials. Each extruder has a heating capacity of up to 300 W, ensuring a stable and high extrusion rate of up to 500 g/hr.
An all-steel structure frame grants the RMF500 high capacity and performance. The RMF500 has high-grade hardness steel for low clearance linear guides, a Z-axis with a maximum load limit of over 100kg, and a 50% lower error deflection.
The RMF500 is designed to achieve the maximum cost-efficiency in terms of material performance vs the process cost. The effective application of material science resulted in the optimization of the system’s design with a much lower energy consumption.
The Raise3D material science team can produce composite filaments with significantly improved thermal and mechanical properties, by reinforcing thermoplastic with fibers. Fiber-reinforced filaments have high printability and require an environment that does not have to be as hot as with other printing materials.
Without a heated chamber, peak power consumption is less than 3kW. The average power consumption per unit printing area is 60% lower than competitors.
Raise3D fiber-reinforced filaments are competitively priced, making additive manufacturing with fiber-reinforced thermoplastics more accessible.

A breakaway support filament specially developed to pair with the PA12 CF resulting in an easy break away and clean overhang surface. |
Raise3D Industrial PPA CF |
Raise3D Industrial PPA CF Filament is a carbon fiber-reinforced composite filament material based on PPA (polyphthalamide or high-performance/high-temperature Nylon). PPA CF has lower density, lower moisture absorption, high strength and rigidity, high wear and creep resistance, and excellent chemical and heat resistance. |
Raise3D Industrial PPA GF |
Raise3D Industrial PPA GF is a glass fiber-reinforced composite filament material based on PPA (polyphthalamide or high-performance/high-temperature Nylon). PPA can be distinguished from aliphatic polyamides (e.g.PA6) by a higher melting point, glass transition temperatures (Tg), lower moisture absorption, and greater dimensional stability. |
Raise3D Industrial PPA Support |
Raise3D Industrial PPA (Polyphthalamide) Support Filament is a break-away support material specially developed for PPA (Polyphthalamide). This filament is compatible with Raise3D Industrial PPA CF Filament and Raise3D Industrial PPA GF Filament. |
