Re: Tips for fixing warping and delamination in 3D printing?

That particular model of printer prints with a dissolve-able support material which most consumer grade printers do not. This no doubt alleviates a lot of the issues that cause warping on cheaper printers in addition to the other features it likely has (thermally controlled build environment, better manufacturing tolerances, etc.). To compare a commercial grade 3D printer to consumer grade one is really not a fair comparison.


Also, its a $24,900+ printer.
