REDMOND, WA, Nov 27, 2007 - 2Bot(SM) Corporation, the inventor of the affordable 2Bot 3D model making system, announced the launch of its new Reseller Program, targeted at resellers who want to increase the value of its sales efforts to architects.

The first phase of the program enables US resellers to start selling these innovative 2Bot systems, which will be generally available in January 2008. Resellers are invited to visit 2Bot’s booth # 514, during the Autodesk University event, to see a working 2Bot system, and discuss reseller opportunities with the 2Bot team.

2Bot is launching its ModelMaker for Architects at Autodesk University. Attendees to the industry event in Las Vegas will see the first public demonstration of a machine that can carve a physical scale topographical model in its entirety in less than an hour and rapidly create all the pieces for architectural models in minutes.

ModelMaker for Architects automates the tedious creation of scale models and parts, a task that has traditionally been performed manually at great expenditures of time and cost. 2Bot’s ModelMaker delivers a complete solution that includes very easy-to-use software, requires no advanced programming skills, and works from standard file formats including DWG and DXF.

2Bot delivers these advanced CNC capabilities in a very small package. The desktop-sized machine sits on a 30 x 30-inch footprint and weighs only 50 pounds. Despite its compact size, ModelMaker for Architects can produce scale models of limitless area. The system automatically segments larger-area models into easily panelized sections.

ModelMaker for Architects is the first CNC device especially designed for the office environment. It runs from a standard electrical outlet and features many user-accessible parts, which are protected by 2Bot’s one-year replacement warranty.

The 2Bot currently supports AutoCAD DWG and DXF data, and SketchUp KMZ files. It will also currently handle STL data from just about any major CAD product. More file format support is planned in the near future.

Product specifications and purchase information can be found at the 2Bot official site at www.2Bot.com.

About 2Bot

For the past 40 years, CNC (Computer Numerical Control) has been a key manufacturing technology in the mass production of hard goods from airplanes to furniture. CNC turns designs on a user’s computer into finished goods by instructing a CNC machine to precisely cut and form raw materials into finished goods. To date, these machines have been so expensive that only very large industries could afford them.  

2Bot is the first CNC machine to be conceptualized, engineered, and produced with its own mass production in mind. This allows prices to be so low that the typical professional environment can afford one. We envision that 2Bot will soon become a standard part of each professional’s tool set. 2Bot will make the creation of objects from ideas so effortless that it becomes a common event in your everyday design process.  

2Bot systems are currently available for architects and hobbyist engineers. 2Bot Corporation is based in Redmond, WA and is privately held. For more information visit at www.2Bot.com.
