![]() ![]() ![]() The CubePro is available with up to three extruders, in the CubePro, CubePro Duo and CubePro Trio models, which range in price from USD$2,799 to USD$4,399. Previously, you had to have a Windows machine to use the CubeX and its predecessors. Its large-sized version, named Cube Pro Trio, can use up to three colors at the same time, unfortunately, this impacts the generated pieces' quality. A handy mobile app lets you control your CubePro remotely, or you can use the new color touchscreen.įinally, we noticed 3D Systems now offers an OS/X version of the CubePro software. There’s a number of other minor improvements appearing in the CubePro, including a new filament cartridge that’s moisture sealed for reliability and “instant load”. To be clear, it is not a heater, as that might violate Stratasys’ patent on such features. According to 3D Systems’ Rajeev Kulkarni, it’s a control mechanism to vent heat when it becomes too hot. How is it regulated? With this device shown above, placed within the build chamber at the back. This heat is captured within the chamber and regulated. Interior heating is provided solely by the extruders, which obviously must be heated to melt the filament. The controlled temperature permits more rapid printing – up to 2X as fast according to 3D Systems. This is a critical feature for reliable 3D printing, as variations in ambient temperature – or even drafts – can cause issues. It’s now entirely enclosed, creating a temperature controlled print volume. ![]()
