Crowd Funding

自从我开始写这篇文章以来,Kickstarter筹集了超过6万美元

当我开始写这篇文章时,Robo3D的Kickstarter甚至还没有推出。现在,它已经达到了一半以上的资金目标。但是,对于该公司来说,资金从来都不是最终游戏,他们已经在正在生产其机器的生产良好。Robo3D推出此Kickstarter的原因?他们想向您的支持者表示感谢,以及折扣价和独家奖励。Super Early Bird可享受200美元的机器人C2折扣,Robo R2可享受300美元的折扣,因此,您最好先赶紧抢购。(更新:Robo R2超级早鸟奖励已经不再可用了。)

Earlier this month,we announced that Falcon had changed the terms of their acquisition of Robo3D, and also that the San Diego based company was expected to release two new printers this year. Well that day is upon us, with their Kickstarter launch today.

Robo C2 and Robo R2

The design of both printers is pretty sleek, they were made with the help of Outerspace Design, who ensured the machines featured a highly functional mechanical design that was aesthetically pleasing.

在引擎盖下

两台打印机都提供Wi-Fi连接,智能设备连接的打印,彩色触摸屏和快速打印速度。

The iOS (soon Android too)Robo apphelps to control every aspect of the printing process.

  • 从移动设备上连接和打印
  • 监视每个印刷品的进度
  • Control your printer from anywhere with Wi-Fi
  • 一次管理多个印刷品和打印机
  • 手动控制面板可让您精确处理所有细节
  • 连接到云库,并访问数千个3D型号
  • 进行应用内购买(丝,配件,打印套件等)
  • 对象完成后提醒您
  • Access support and tutorials from within the app
  • Use it to control any Octoprint Enabled 3D Printer

Robo C2

The smaller of the two printers doesn’t lack in features. It is a compact machine, with abuild volume of 5″ x 5″ x 6″. It has a built in 3.5″ color touch screen and precision sensor technology, making sure every print is up to your specification. Robo C2 features an auto levelling print bed, which is also removable. On top of integrated model slicing, giving each layer more attention to detail, it also tells you when you’re about to run out of filament and saves your 3D print. It has two high speed fans to make sure your print is cooled for consistency, and is able to print with over 20 different materials and filaments (that don’t require heated beds).

Robo R2

The Robo R2 is a robust, high performance machine. On top of the features of the Robo C2, it can tackle larger projects with its8英寸x 8英寸x 10英寸的构建体积, and features a加热的印刷床, improving the quality of each print while preventing warping. It has a fast print speed, an on-board camera and a 5″ color touch screen. It has the ability of adding a second extrusion head so you can print two materials at once, and can print with over 30 materials and filaments.

Both printers come with lifetime 24/7 customer support, and 12 months limited part replacement warranty. As an added bonus backers also get a 12 month subscription to Autodesk Fusion 360 CAD software (commercial version).

If you happen to miss the Kickstarter, the general market release of the Robo C2 is in November and Robo R2 in January 2017.
