    Stratasys 768 motors are inside the chamber.

    PLA is possible if you change the temperatures.

    Is that speaking from experience or a personal hypothesis?

    Stratasys printers don't have a heated bed, so you'll have trouble printing PLA on them - either you'll have to heat the chamber and the hotend will jam, or you'll have to print on a cold bed and you'll get part warp.

    PLA has a Tg of 60C, which is where you'd want to set the heated bed (but you can't, and setting the build environment to the polymer's Tg = jammed hotend)
