标题: HeyGears Launches Reflex 2 Max with 50% Higher Output per Build Plate
Introduction: As printing expands from prototyping into batch production, businesses demand larger build volumes, greater productivity, and lower investment. For service providers, prototype manufacturers, and developers and manufacturers in embodied intelligence, footwear, and other sectors, larger areas allow larger parts to be made directly and more parts to share a build, opening further applications.

On October 30, 2026, HeyGears launched Reflex 2 Max. Centered on large-format printing, it expands applications and supports production capacity, lower costs, and efficiency through multiple materials, flexible equipment configurations, and a one-stop workflow.

Larger Format, More Applications, More Production Space

Reflex 2 Max increases the build area to 15.95 inches, with output per plate 50% above Reflex 2 Pro. Its 353.3 × 198.7 × 400 mm build space provides 2.42 times the volume.

The larger space accommodates larger parts and more orders in one batch, increasing each print's output and reducing separate builds.

Sun Xiahan, general manager of batch additive service provider Daotian Additive, said: “Previously, large and small orders competed for machines, and equipment was never sufficient. Reflex 2 Max covers different production needs with limited people and space. Its larger area fits more orders per batch and greatly improves delivery. Small urgent orders received in the morning can be scheduled for shipment that afternoon.”

Multiple Materials and Industrial Precision

The printer supports over 30 high-performance engineering resins and produces parts at MT2 molded-part-level accuracy, supporting appearance review, functional tests, and assembly verification.

Applications range from automotive interior cupholders and consumer-electronics housings to transparent lamp covers and injection molds, helping users assess appearance, detail, and assembly.

Yu Jianle, co-founder and product design and development manager at functional equipment brand Hufu Industry, said: “HeyGears' materials let us turn concepts into production-grade products solving practical problems. Its technology lets us design different lattices within one shoulder pad for zoned support and fit. We continue exploring materials and designs to make equipment systems more comfortable and provide users with practical functions.”

Lower Equipment Investment and Capacity Expansion on Demand

Equipment investment is central to production planning. Reflex 2 systems can be configured for different output goals, reducing initial spending and enabling gradual expansion.

For elastomer footwear, at target monthly volumes of 500, 2,000, and 5,000 pairs, equipment investment using Reflex 2 systems is respectively 90%, 85%, and 80% below conventional industrial DLP solutions.

Niu Kang, founder and footwear design director at printed-footwear manufacturer Yinlv Intelligent Manufacturing, said: “At 2,000 pairs monthly, other solutions' equipment costs alone are daunting. HeyGears reduces startup funding pressure, leaving more resources for products. Early orders were small, and many factories would not accept complex designs. Ideas could be drawn but were hard to manufacture. HeyGears was the key to breaking through.”

Intelligent Management to Improve Workflow

HeyGears offers a one-stop workflow covering equipment, materials, post-processing, and software. Coordinated hardware, software, and material processes simplify production, reduce repeated tuning and operations, help teams learn faster, improve handoffs, and lower training, maintenance, and trial-and-error costs.

Pan Xiaojun, LCD production engineer at one-stop custom-parts supplier Future Factory, said: “Reflex 2 Max's larger area raises batch capacity. Together with HeyGears' software and materials, it provides a one-stop experience. Selecting the material in BPS automatically links preprocessing, printing, and post-curing through the process package, greatly reducing trial-and-error costs.”

Full-Stack Development for Stable Large-Format Printing

A high-intensity optical engine, customized amber screen, and dual calibration optimize illumination across the larger area. High-precision Z-axis control, pulsed release, and a new-generation recoater improve accuracy and stability.

As a global high-end photopolymerization printing leader, HeyGears pursues full-stack development and domestic substitution. Proprietary hardware and software underpin integrated capabilities in hardware, software, materials, applications, and ecosystem. By October 2026, cumulative R&D exceeded RMB 1 billion, with 381 authorized patents, including 141 invention patents. Through continued research and innovation, it aims to improve high-quality creation infrastructure under its commitment to one platform for thousands of industries, enabling scaled printing across more sectors.
