A1 is a new fused filament fabrication 3D printer
launched via Kickstarter this week, designed to blend in at your home or work
place providing fast, accurate and quite 3D printing. The A1 has been created
by product developer and mechanical engineering Karl-Johan Regestam.
“Relying on newly patented technique and design with
modular thinking, A1 is built to last and is ready for expansion with dual
extruders for multi-material or a full enclosure for more technical materials. With
its minimalist design, A1 gives you a great insight to the printing chamber and
a quick access to swap your extruder for other nozzle sizes.”
“Relying on the new gantry and extruder design with
an extremely lightweight and rigid construction, together with a 32 bit ARM
processor for fast calculations, A1 allows you to play around with the travel
speed up to 300 mm/s. Cut by laser and powder coated, A1 goes for high
precision and quality. All of the electronics, stepper motors and the
controller board are mounted in a unique back part, having an effective
circulation of cool air for a stable performance. “
