TROY, Mich. - FISHER/UNITECH announced today it will sell the uPrint Personal 3D Printer, a desktop-sized printer priced under $15,000, from the Dimension 3D Printing Group. The uPrint is the latest addition to the company's offering of rapid technology products, joining the Dimension 3D Printer and the FDM machines from Stratasys, Inc. The uPrint is available for purchase immediately from FISHER/UNITECH throughout North America.
uPrint is designed for desktop printing in an office environment, occupying only a 24 x 26 inch footprint and offering an 8 x 6 x 6 inch build envelope. The uPrint builds models using ABSplus, a material on average 40% stronger than standard ABS plastic. The printer also features a soluble support removal system, allowing for hands-free removal of the support structure. uPrint, offered at $14,900 USD, will reach a new market of designers, engineers, architects, artists and teachers who previously couldn't afford to bring rapid technology in-house.
FISHER/UNITECH has created two Rapid Technology Centers, one in Schaumburg, Illinois, and one in Troy, Michigan. Customers will be able to upload part files to either center and receive consultation on the best process and solution for printing, prototyping or the newest process, direct digital manufacturing. In addition, each center has the capability to produce parts on any of the equipment. These centers will allow customers to identify the most cost efficient machine for their needs. The two centers will service the new uPrint Personal 3D Printer on a nationwide basis.
