Snapmaker 2.0Kickstarter raises $3.5 million for 3-in-1 3D printer, breaking previous record

总部位于美国的3D打印机提供商Snapmakerhas launched a crowdfunding campaign for its newSnapmaker 2.0series。随着28天的距离,该项目已经超出了其初始目标。在撰写本文时,Snapmaker 2.0在Kickstarter上的活动已获得超过350万美元的支持者的350万美元支持。

当然,Snapmaker 2.0并不是第一台通过受欢迎的众筹站点获得大量财务支持的第3D打印机。但是,令人鼓舞的是,看到Kickstarter上的3D打印项目如此高的支持。特别是作为元素(not-warrantedw)ariness about Kickstarter projects has crept in over recent years.

Could the Snapmaker 2.0 suggest a renewed faith in 3D printing on the platform?

The Snapmaker 2.0: Modular 3-in-1 3D printer

Snapmaker成立于2016年,在Kickstarter上获得了第一批Snapmaker 3合1的资金,他试图向DIY市场提供低成本的多工具3D打印机。雷电竞app下载Snapmaker的USP是,它们提供了3D打印,CNC雕刻和激光雕刻的一件紧凑型包装。3D打印行业的工程团队审查了Snapmaker 3-in-1在2018年,制造商对此表示满意。

An upgrade to the first machine, the Snapmaker 2.0 range promises to be “smarter, faster, larger, and more powerful than ever before.” It comes in three different sizes, the A150, A250 and A350, with build volumes ranging from 145 mm x 160 mm x 160 mm (L x W x H) to 320 x 350 x 330 mm. Each unit is completed by the modules needed for 3D printing, engraving and carving, and can be updated with other add-ons as required, such as a rotary cutter and dual nozzle extruder.

Through Kickstarter, each Snapmaker 2.0 model is currently available for half the eventual retail price for the system. The A150 package is priced at $719, the A250 at $899 and the A350 at $1,079 respectively.

在Kickstarter上对3D打印机的新信任雷电竞app下载的标志?

All of the early bird prices of the Snapmaker 2.0 have already sold out, resulting in a backing of $1 million within the first seven minutes of the campaign’s launch. Now backers are pledging money for the other limited runs of the systems, with funds reaching in excess of $3.5 million. The first batch of Snapmaker 2.0 machines are expected to ship in November 2019, with subsequent lots to be shipped in December 2019, and early 2020.

Snapmaker’s crowdfunding success follows past standout 3D printer projects includingFormlabs的295万美元发行了表格1早在2012年,Printrbot筹集的$ 800Kin 2011. Since the early days of 3D printers on Kickstarter however, unfortunately there have been many more projects which have failed to deliver, even when highly funded.

In 2017, 3D Printing Industry discovered that, contrary to reporting by other publications, theNext Dynamics’ campaign为一个multimaterial 3D printer was actually not what it seemed.After raising several red-flags and attempting to visit the company the Kickstarter campaign was eventually暂停。Elsewhere, backers of智能手机驱动的3D打印机fromOlo 3D Inc.are still waiting for deliveries almost three years since the initial launch.

Though such failures have made many people rightly wary of backing crowdfunding projects, the achievements of the Snapmaker 2.0 could yet be the next greatest success of 3D printers on Kickstarter. Hopefully, it is also a sign of renewed trust in the platform.
