MINGDA AD-F6 Pro [Large-Format Multi-Colour 3D Printer]

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro is a professional large-format multi-colour FFF 3D printer developed for signage, advertising letters, illuminated displays and customised visual applications.

Featuring a substantial 1200 × 800 × 100 mm printing area, a 6-in-1-out multi-colour feeding system and high-speed printing, the MINGDA AD-F6 Pro provides sign manufacturers with a flexible digital production solution for creating colourful, customised components.

With dedicated SignMaker software, AI defect detection, automatic levelling, integrated camera monitoring and multiple connectivity options, the AD-F6 Pro combines large-format production with an intelligent and streamlined workflow.

Large-Format 3D Printing for Signage

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro 3D printer provides a generous 1200 × 800 × 100 mm build area, giving businesses the capacity to manufacture large letters, sign faces, logos and display components.

The wide, low-profile build volume is particularly well suited to signage applications where components need a substantial X and Y footprint without requiring an excessively tall build chamber.

Large components can be produced digitally, helping reduce the need to manufacture and assemble numerous smaller sections.

Ideal Applications

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro is designed for applications including:

• Advertising and channel letters
• Illuminated signage
• Company logos
• Retail displays
• Exhibition graphics
• Decorative lettering
• Multi-colour sign faces
• Branded visual displays
• Custom signage components

MINGDA demonstrates the AD Series producing both advertising-letter side shapes and face patterns, including illuminated and multi-colour designs.

Six-Colour 3D Printing

One of the main advantages of the MINGDA AD-F6 Pro is its 6-in-1-out IMS multi-colour feeding system.

The system supports up to six filament feeds, each accommodating up to a 1 kg spool, allowing different colours to be incorporated into the printing workflow.

This provides considerably more design freedom when manufacturing logos, lettering and branded displays where colour forms an important part of the finished product.

Rather than producing every colour individually and assembling the components afterwards, multi-colour additive manufacturing can simplify the production of complex visual designs.

High-Speed FFF Printing

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro combines its large-format capability with printing speeds designed for productive signage manufacturing.

When using a 0.4 mm nozzle, the machine can achieve speeds of up to 300 mm/s, with MINGDA recommending 200 mm/s for normal operation.

With the standard 0.6 mm nozzle, the maximum specified printing speed is 150 mm/s, with a recommended speed of 120 mm/s.

Different nozzle sizes can therefore be selected depending on the balance required between detail, material deposition and production speed.

Intelligent Printing and Monitoring

Large-format prints can involve lengthy production cycles, making reliable monitoring particularly important.

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro incorporates several intelligent features designed to support unattended and extended printing:

AI Defect Detection
Integrated print detection helps identify potential issues during production.

Filament Break Detection
The printer can detect interruptions to the filament supply.

Power-Off Resume Printing
Printing can be resumed following an interruption to the power supply.

Automatic Levelling
Auto-levelling helps simplify machine preparation and maintain an appropriate printing platform.

Integrated Camera
Camera functionality provides additional visibility of the printing process.

These features help create a more controlled workflow when producing larger signage components.

Dedicated SignMaker Software

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro is supplied with software designed specifically around its target applications.

MINGDA's SignMaker software supports the creation of advertising-letter designs, including different side shapes and face patterns.

The manufacturer's brochure demonstrates a range of letter side profiles and decorative face configurations that can be incorporated into signage designs.

The printer is also compatible with MINGDA Slicer for preparing models for production.

Specialist AdPETG Signage Materials

Alongside the AD Series printers, MINGDA offers specialist AdPETG Tough filament for signage applications.

AdPETG Tough Light-Transmitting Filament

Light-transmitting materials can be used in applications where illumination needs to pass through the printed component.

MINGDA lists a broad selection of colours including:

Red, Yellow, Orange, Gold, Blue, Lake Blue, Green, Mint Green, Silver, Grey, Transparent, Purple, Pink, Bronze, Black and White.

AdPETG Tough Light-Blocking Filament

For areas where light needs to be controlled or blocked, MINGDA also offers light-blocking filament in:

Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Black, Silver, Grey and White.

Combining light-transmitting and light-blocking AdPETG with multi-colour printing provides additional flexibility when producing illuminated lettering and signage.

Connected Production Workflow

The MINGDA AD-F6 Pro provides several options for transferring data and connecting the printer to your production environment.

Connectivity includes:

Wi-Fi | Ethernet | U-Disk

The machine also uses Klipper firmware and features a 7-inch touchscreen for operation.

Together with integrated camera functionality, these features provide a practical interface for managing large-format printing jobs.
