Reliability Is Key When You Print BIG!

At Emvio, we're not afraid of letting our BigRep ONE run lights out

Those that have been using desktop printers since 2010, will know the issues that make 3D printing a chore.

For the most part, small 3D printers do small prints, but with BigRep, week-long prints are actually not uncommon. Of course, reliability is of utmost importance. The dread of a 5 day print failing on day 4 is real. However, BigRep machines are built using the very best components, and those components are assembled using best practices. Making these machines some of the most reliable on the market. (more…)
