Phrozen Arco FDM 3D Printer

The Phrozen Arco is an FDM 3D printer designed for producing strong functional plastic parts in large formats at high speed. Common applications include functional prototypes, jigs and fixtures, engineering brackets, enclosures, tooling aids, architectural models, and small batch component production.

The Arco supports PLA, Tough PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, ASA, PC, and carbon-fibre and glass-fibre composite filaments. The all-metal hotend reaches 300 degrees Celsius and the heated PEI bed reaches 120 degrees Celsius, covering the full range of engineering-grade materials without requiring a hotend swap.

Klipper runs on a dedicated processor separate from the printer control board. It enables real-time input shaping, pressure advance tuning, and per-material speed profiles. This gives users direct control over print physics rather than relying on manufacturer presets, which is why production FDM users prefer it. The Arco ships with Klipper pre-installed.

The Chroma Kit is an optional multi-filament system that connects to the Arco and enables automated printing across 4 filament channels, expandable to 16. Each channel has a built-in drying chamber up to 70 degrees Celsius and its own jam and runout sensors. It can be purchased and added at any time after buying the Arco.

The PentaShield is an optional enclosure consisting of five removable tempered glass panels. It raises the internal chamber temperature by up to 10 degrees Celsius, reduces operational noise by approximately 15 percent, and includes a carbon-filter fan that activates automatically at 35 degrees Celsius. It installs without modifying the printer and can be added at any time.

FDM printers like the Arco produce parts that are stronger, more durable, and better suited to functional and mechanical applications. The 300 x 300 x 300 mm build volume is significantly larger than most resin printers. Resin printers produce finer surface detail and higher dimensional accuracy at small scales. Many users run both technologies for different applications.
