About the MakerGear M2

Cost: 
$0.12 per gram 

Located in B.E.S.T. Library, the MakerGear printer is a precision machine that melts and extrudes ABS plastic a layer at a time. Layer heights (the thickness of an individual printed layer) are measured in small fractions of a millimeter; while typical layer heights are between 0.3mm and 0.1mm, the MakerGear can print layers as thin as 0.05mm. A millimeter is about the thickness of 10 sheets of ordinary laser printer paper. That means that the MakerGear can build layers half the thickness of a piece of paper, allowing us to print fine details not available on other machines.

• Build Volume: 8" x 10" x 8"
• Layer Height: .1mm to .25mm 
• On smaller prints we can adjust layer height down to .05mm (NOTE that this increases the potential for failure)

Our charges for the printers are intended for cost recovery for the material used.  For certain high-risk projects (where we have serious doubts about being able to print the model successfully), it may be necessary to also charge for repeated failed prints. If you want to print on something other then the recommended printer that our specialist suggest you will also be required to pay for failed prints We will notify you in advance if this will be the case, and we will always seek to build objects using the most cost-effective tactics feasible.
