SAN DIEGO, CA, Jan 22, 2015 – XYZprinting, a manufacturer of affordable consumer grade 3D printers, announced its da Vinci Junior 3D printer with a price-point of just $349.
XYZprinting’s da Vinci Junior is the latest 3D printer in the company’s award-winning da Vinci line-up. The compact printer brings 3D printing to a new affordable price-point at just $349, increasing the accessibility of 3D printing to a broader range of consumers, educators and hobbyists.
Features of the da Vinci Junior Include:
- Plug-and-Play: da Vinci Junior is simple and easy to operate, with no assembly required.
- Calibration-Free Design: da Vinci Junior requires no leveling – it’s a true hassle-free consumer 3D printer.
- Fast-Release, Replacement-Friendly Extruder: The one click, fast-release extruder makes it convenient for users to swap or change extruders, and easy removal for cleaning or replacement contributes to longer life.
- Stand-Alone Printing: A built-in SD card slot allows users to print directly from an SD card, with no computer required. This stand-alone feature is ideal for shared 3D printers in schools or offices.
- Simple Filament Loading/Reloading: da Vinci Junior features safe and easy fused filament fabrication (FFF) cartridges that auto-load, providing an additional level of convenience. NFC technology makes low filament detecting and replacing easy.
- Safe Printing Area: The device’s all-enclosed printing area and non-heated bed provides a safe printing environment.
- Low Electricity Consumption: da Vinci Junior system consumes only 75 watts of power for printing, making it one of the more eco-friendly 3D printers on the market.
- Low Noise: da Vinci Junior is designed to provide minimal noise, the lowest of all 3D printers to-date, making it optimal for classroom or office use.
- Build Size and Dimensions: Da Vinci Junior uses fused filament fabrication (FFF) technology and reaches print dimensions of 5.9″ x 5.9″x 5.9″ (150 x 150 x 150 mm), with product dimensions of 16.5″ x 15″ x 16.9″ (420 x 380 x 430 mm). The compact and seamless printer weighs only 12kg.
- Large Design Database: XYZprinting’s cloud-based design gallery features thousands of 3D models for downloading, as well as uploading.
- Warranty: a one-year limited warranty is included at no additional cost.
XYZprinting also announced its Nobel 1.0 3D printer, a highly approachable and value-driven high-resolution SL Laser technology 3D printer. Consistent with XYZprinting’s other cost effective 3D printers on the market, the Nobel 1.0 will be available for purchase in Q3 2015 with an MSRP of $1,499.
Stereolithography (SL Laser) technology uses a laser to heat the photosensitive resin, producing higher resolution print objects with more complex geometry. The print resolution reaches an impressive 25 microns, designed to achieve superior print results for users of all levels at an affordable cost.
Additional features of the Nobel 1.0 3D printer include:
- Plug-and-Play: Nobel 1.0 is simple and easy to operate, with no assembly required. Just input a design, and with the touch of a few buttons, print jobs come out near perfect.
- Build Size and Dimensions: Printing dimensions with the Nobel 1.0 reach 5” x 5” x 7.9” (128 x 128 x 200 mm), with product dimensions of 11” x 13” x 23.8” (280 x 345 x 594 mm).
- Resin Auto-Refill: Nobel 1.0’s improved resin-filling system, which checks resin levels automatically, provides a stable printing environment, eliminating the need to add liquid resin constantly throughout the printing process.
- Accurate, High-Resolution Printing: The printing resolutions of the Nobel 1.0 reach an impressive 0.3mm (300 Microns) on the X/Y axis, and 0.025mm (25 Microns) on the Z axis, allowing users to achieve print results with astounding detail.
- USB Drive Support: A built-in USB drive slot allows users to print directly from a USB stick, with no computer required.
- Large Design Database: XYZprinting’s cloud-based design gallery features thousands of 3D models for downloading, as well as uploading.
