The Biggest 3D Printers at Formnext 2025

The halls of Formnext are filled with exciting machines and eye-catching 3D-printed objects. Yet among the many innovations on display, it’s the giant 3D printers that inevitably command attention. These large-format additive manufacturing systems offer massive build volumes, support diverse materials, and unlock new possibilities for production at scale. In this video, we take you on a tour of some of the biggest printers at the show.

We begin with the Crane WASP, a construction 3D printer built for printing with concrete, plaster, earthen material, and more. What we saw on the show floor was only part of the picture: The Crane WASP on display was the stand-alone version, but the unit as a whole can actually be much larger, and capable of printing houses.

Then, we headed over to the HFP printer from Moi, which uses cold-extrusion technology to deposit vinyl-ester resin reinforced with glass fiber. Each layer is immediately cured with UV light, enabling fast, stable builds. Thanks to its material properties and precision, the HFP is well-suited for both industrial fabrication and artistic installations.
