High Output & Competitive Price ABS/PLA Filament Lab Extruder for 3D Printer abs filament 1.75 mm
Low cost 3D printing is an emerging market. Competitors including Makerbot, Printrbot, Solidoodle, and Ultimaker sell 3D printers from between $399-$2200. These 3D printers require extruded plastic filament that costs about $35-$50 per kg. This is between 5-8 times the cost of the raw resin pellets. To get widespread adoption of the technology the cost of using the 3D printers will need to go down.
