Additive Manufacturing 3D printer MakerBot

MakerBot Replicator+ and Replicator Mini+ have been re-engineered for faster, easier, and more reliable printing with a bigger build volume.

Makerbot ReplicatorThe MakerBot Replicator+ and Replicator Mini+ printers feature an improved gantry and Z-stage through stiffer materials and sturdier construction for consistent and predictable printing. The Replicator+ and Replicator Mini+ are both faster and quieter than their predecessors and feature larger build volumes for printing bigger models or more prints at one time. The MakerBot Replicator+ is approximately 30 percent faster, has a 25 percent larger build volume, and is 27 percent quieter than the Replicator 5th Generation Desktop 3D Printer. The MakerBot Replicator Mini+ is approximately 10 percent faster, has a 28 percent larger build volume, and is 58 percent quieter than the Replicator Mini Compact 3D Printer. The Replicator+ and Replicator Mini+ both come with the swappable MakerBot Smart Extruder+, which is designed and tested to provide improved performance over a longer period of time. The Replicator+ also features a flexible build plate, making it easy to remove larger prints by simply bending the plate. The new Grip Build Surface included on both new printers ensures that prints adhere better without the use of blue tape, resulting in improved reliability and reduced warping and curling. Redesigned rafts and supports break away more easily for a cleaner print surface of printed parts.
