This is a very interesting new robotic arm that is coming out. It's form a company called Flux Integration, and is called the FLX.ARM.S16. It is a robotic arm, and it can do many things including 3D printing. It is currently available for pre-order for $1995, and will ship sometime in September of this year.

Other applications for it other than 3D printing are
- PICK AND PLACE
- DISPENSING
- LIGHT-DUTY MILLING
- MACHINE TOOL ASSISTANT
- PROBING

Here is an example of this thing 3D printing


The collaborative nature of a robotic arm is what differentiates it from all other machine platforms. Collaboration enables a robotic arm to change tools and load parts on a CNC mill or lathe and provides scalability with 3D printing, pick and place, and assembly operations. The FLX.ARM.S16 is both modular and collaborative
This sounds too good to be true to me. Isn't $1995 a totally incredible price for something like this? Am I missing something?
