Printing objects as large as 1m x 1m x 0.5m in size! Meet the latest GIANT 3D printer– XLBot!
The XLBot is now available for pre-order via MakeMendel.com for only $3,999., which is an astounding price for a 3D printer this size. The machine measures 1m x 1m x 600 mm, and is capable of printing objects with dimensions of 900mm x 900mm x 500mm (aproximately 3′ x 3′ x 1’8″), with a layer thickness of 0.1mm. It can also print at speeds of up to 60mm/s, using a nozzle with a diameter of 0.4mm.
This 3D printer features an LCD controller, a modified print bed adjustment, a bottom mounted Ramps 1.4 and power supply which gives it a clean appearance. The frame of the machine is built with aluminum, which helps provide a stable and compact design. Since the printer is so large (weight of 40kg), it will come unassembled, so it will require a little time and effort to get it up and running. Pre-orders are underway, and orders currently require a lead time of 3 weeks.
