S4 Stacker's new fused-filament fabrication 3-D printer has a build area of nearly 14 inches by 20 inches by 26 inches and can print as many as four parts at once. Featuring a high-strength steel design with industrial-grade motors and quick-change nozzles, the S4 was designed for a variety of uses, including prototyping and manufacturing. It works with nozzle sizes ranging from 0.4mm to 1mm.
What's new? The printer, which Stacker begins shipping this month.
Benefits Versatility, accuracy and cost-effective price. The machine, which features four print heads that can be swapped out easily, can print multiple materials and colors simultaneously, making it faster than other printers that can handle only one material at a time. Because it accepts hundreds of materials, users have flexibility and can shop around for the filaments that best suit their needs. The machine is also easy to customize. For a limited time, Stacker is offering the S4 for $9,995; it plans to eventually raise that price by $2,000.
