+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).
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.
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.
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?
