Have you seen the ugly printed wolf that comes with ZMorph?

Maybe we have different understanding of what a good FDM print quality is?

I’ll say my vote is for Zortrax - a Polish printer also, but much, much,much better.

Yes ,actually we are also authorized re seller of Zmorph in Greece , yes is a very good machine and with open software , voxelizer give you the freedom to experiment with a lot of different materials, the good for me is that is a workhorse we use it everyday with no problems and is very easy to service it cause of the open design of it

you can check as here for samples and videos Idea 3D

p.s we have here almost all the heads and the big table (you will find it useful specially when you using the laser or the dremel head

I’d love to see a nice ZMorph Marvin Will you share one with us?

IDEA3DHeraklion · 2015-04-14T17:29:06.000Z

actually we have also a zortax that has very good results …but is closed and works well only their filaments , about the wolf is like these to show the voxels concept voxelizer use a different approach of slicing he is making voxels , I will print the Marvin in zmorph and show you the result

We are sales and support Zmorph for Zmorph in the UK, and FabLab Essex have several ( so you can try before you buy if you are a Fablab member) . As with all 3D printers you have to get to know them (and their software) to appreciate their advantages and idiosyncrasies. The interchangeable heads are a great advantage when changing materials on a regular basis. The milling and laser capacities are fairly limited - don’t expect them to do the same as dedicated machines. The ‘soft material’ extruders are very material dependent but with the right materials some people have achieved some remarkable results.

+1 - The Zortrax has better print quality than any desktop printer I found under $5k that was willing to send samples. Only downside I see to them is build size and proprietary material options (unless you want to void the warranty).

Scott3d · 2015-04-15T20:53:24.000Z

I would never purchase a printer that has proprietary filament only usage. To me that defeats the purpose of trying to be creative and experience all the new filaments that come out. I would by a kit and build my own reprap printer before buying one that limits me. Just my opinion.

Jory · 2015-04-15T21:04:00.000Z

I agree to a point, hence the reason I got us a PolyPrinter instead. But…the Zortrax did still have the best results on my test part, even with a single extruder. It looked better than our Dimension machine, which is pretty good for accuracy due to the soluble support it uses.

Thank you very much everybody for taking the time to answer. I sent a quotation request to Zmorph a couple of days ago and got no answer so far, this doesn’t give me a good spine.

octopuslab · 2015-04-16T14:59:04.000Z

9!

octopuslab · 2015-04-16T15:06:29.000Z

Hi Mousetrap,

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately there is no Fablab in my country so I can try this printer, from what I see here in 3dhubs, nobody owns one. It interest me mainly because of the “alternative” materials as well as milling and laser. Do you think it’s worth the money purchasing the full set considering it’s limitations on these additional tools?

octopuslab · 2015-04-16T15:07:40.000Z

thanks! I just liked your fb page

Scott3d · 2015-04-16T15:25:40.000Z

Hihttps://www.3dhubs.com/orlando/hubs/scott Octopuslab, I own one on the ZMorph printers and I posted a picture of the Marvin that I originally printed. Also you can check my 3dhubs page to see some of the other things I have printer for customers and the positive review I have received. I have no issues with my printer, maybe all the negative feedback is due to not learning the printer and what setting work better than others.

Hi @Scott3d

I guess you are right; I have checked your and other prints and they look good to me.

Have you tried the added tools (laser and milling)?
