re:3D is addressing the two largest barriers to 3D-printing: cost and scale. Gigabot, re:3D's flagship technology, enables industrial strength, human-scale 3D-printing at an affordable price point. With build volumes starting at eight cubic feet and robust construction, Gigabot can print objects 30x larger than competing desktop models. re:3D's customer base comprises an esteemed group of specialty manufacturers, engineers, designers, universities, and hobbyists in over 50 countries around the globe. Their ultimate goal is to 3D-print from trash, and they are currently modifying Gigabot to be able to accept post-manufacturing waste, creating a more circular economy and opening new markets.
Overcoming common 3D-printing limitations by creating the Gigabot, which can print objects 30x larger than competing desktop models at a more affordable cost.
