8.2 Frequently Asked Questions
Below is a list of FAQs relating to Robox®.
8.2.1 Hardware
• What is the build volume ofRobox®?
Robox® has a build area of 210x150x100mm – or a volume of 3.15 litres.
Prints taller than 100mm can be scaled or we are adding functionality
to AutoMaker™ which will automatically cut your part into sections for
reassembly aer the printing. This way we can keep our small desktop
footprint but not restrict the parts you print.
• What is the maximum printing resolution of Robox®?
The minimum layer height (or maximum layer resolution) is currently 20
microns and the smallest nozzle is 300 microns in diameter – this means
theoretically the smallest single feature can be 300 microns in diameter and
20 microns in height (i.e. really small!)
• What is the build speed?
We are currently in the middle of a test programme to work out the limits of
the motors and axes, and how these aect print quality, we should be able
to publish some maximum printing and travel speeds soon – but be assured,
it’s fast!
• What about other specifications?
See section 2.2.
• Can you use third party printing filament with Robox?
Robox® has not been tied to only oicial materials - any high quality 1.75mm
filament can be used - but... users wouldn’t get the full plug and print
experience that Robox® oers. Some of the cool features like pausing a print
and changing colours rely on the printer knowing what’s been loaded and
that’s where our SmartReel™ can smooth out the process and enhance the
experience. The best printing results will be achieved using oicial materials,
as they come supplied with a print profile which has been extensively tested
for a perfect print every time.
Why would you not want to use oicial filament? It’s extremely cost
competitive and the quality is second to none, but we don’t want to tie you
in. Not all filaments are good quality, and some might not only give you
