This category includes printers with a build volume size of more than 400mm³. These printers have a very large build volume and can be used to print relatively large objects, such as bike helmets, large planters, or musical instruments. They are often used for applications that require large-scale printing capabilities, such as architecture, automotive, or aerospace. While they are capable of producing very large objects, they also require a larger investment in terms of cost, maintenance, and space.
