3D Systems has introduced its first consumer-targeted 3D printer, the Cube personal printer.
The printer, priced at $1,299, is an "out of the box" printing system that the company displayed at the recent CES trade show in Las Vegas. The printer includes a tablet-like touchscreen interface, and weights less than 9 pounds. The EZ Load cartridge can provide hours of 3D printing capabilities, with a variety of colors and immediate access to 50 free printable creations. The Cube printer comes with a membership to the company's Cubify.com site.
With the Cube printer, personal 3D printing becomes a reality for everyone, said Rajeev Kulkarni, vice president and general manager, consumer solutions for 3D Systems. Every affordable, easy to use 3D printer we bring to the market underscores our commitment to democratize access and accelerate adoption of our 3D content-to-print solutions for the benefit of consumers, artists and developers alike.
The company plans to fully commercialize the Cube personal 3D printer during the first half of 2012.
