What for a 3d printer shouöd i buy?

[3dprinter]

i dont know. abs or pla. what do you think should i buy a ultimaker or zortrax?

[YosemiteSam]

If you are a thinker then buy an Ultimaker. It is open source and requires more fine tuning than Zortrax.

If you need a printer that just works then buy Zortrax.

I updated my own comparison chart... I feel like the UM2 would be the better machine at this point, however, it's expensive, and the lead time is absolutely crazy. The Zortrax looks good too, but right now it can only print to 140microns, and you're limited to using the Z-Suite software and ABS.

I was also looking at the Airwolf3D HD, being that they're in CA, and I'd be able to pick up the machine in person... however it's even more expensive, and there's such little info about it.

but what do you think who have the better quality? but with zortrax you can also use inventor or other programs. and in a few months he can also print 25 microns or not?

[YosemiteSam]

Both printers need STL file to create g-code/z-code.

Yes. They said that 25 and 50 micron resolutions will be available.

what do you think who brings better results?

[YosemiteSam]

Try to find someone who have both. I do not have UM.

But if I were you I would buy Zortrax.

for the zortrax will be updates in future like dual extruder? because the ultimaker will have this updates

[YosemiteSam]

They said we can expect dual extruder.

You can ask them for free samples:
