Benefits

  • This printer can be used with a Tiertime print queue, allowing you to use it in office, classroom, and home environments. 
  • The HEPA and activated carbon filter help reduce toxic elements, such as harmful UFP and VOC emissions from ABS filaments.
  • Use the dedicated-UP Studio software to automatically generate Smart Support structures based on mesh surface angle and area. The support and raft generated by the support algorithm can be easily removed by hand or simple tools. UP Studio also provides a support edition function for advanced users to optimize the support structures based on your preferences to save material and reduce post-processing time.
  • This printer has an extra option to correct its prints with software calibration. You can fix the dimensional discrepancy using the UP Studio dimensional calibration feature. The software can also repair the squareness of printer axes. Even when the printer mechanical structure is compromised, you will still get accurate results without efficiently tinkering with the hardware.

Downsides

  • It doesn’t come with 3rd part slicing software.
  • The filament holder can’t be modified.

Verdict

This Tiertime makes the impossible possible with the production of real-to-life objects that are stunning. It does come with its troubles.
