January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
GZERO Additive is transitioning its flagship 43 Series 3D printers to the Chube Conduction hot end and 1.75-mm diameter filament. This change, due the discontinuation of the previous components, unlocks a wider range of material options, the company reports.
The switch to the Chube Conduction hot end, an American-made component, ensures continued high-quality printing with improved thermal performance, GZERO Additive reports. This transition also involves shifting to 1.75-mm filament diameter, which will increase the variety of filament and color options available.
"While the discontinuation of our previous hot end required us to make a change, we saw this as an opportunity to step up our game," says Michael Parks, co-founder of GZERO Additive. "The Chube Conduction hot end will provide significant benefits to our users, including increased nozzle size options and improved print speeds at low layer heights. Moving to 1.75-mm diameter filament gives our customers a wider selection of materials and colors."
In-Warranty Customers: Customers whose GZERO Additive printers are currently within their warranty period will receive the upgrade for free in coming months. GZERO Additive will contact eligible customers to schedule the upgrade.
Out-of-Warranty Customers: Customers whose printers are outside of their warranty period will have the option to purchase the upgrade at parts cost. Details regarding pricing and availability will be provided soon.
GZERO Additive is a provider of 3D printing solutions. The company offers a range of 3D printers and support services.
