[Brian_Krassenstein]

Here is a printer which was just launched yesterday called the Forecebook Ultra 3D. It is made by a company called HGSpot, located in the capital of Croatia. The printer sells for 6999 HRK, which is equal to about $1260. Here are some specs for the new device, which is the very first Croatian made 3D printer:

• Build Volume: 225 mm x 145 mm x 150 mm
• Printer Accuracy: 0.2 mm - 100 mm
• Layer Thickness: 0.15 mm - 0.4 mm
• Print Speeds: ​​10 mm / s - 120 mm
• Nozzle Size: 0.4 mm
• Extruder Temperature: 180 ° C - 260 ° C

I've seen this design under three other brands, so I don't think it's likely much more than a rebrand. It's the same storage-tub goodness as these three:

Dsword 3D Printer TR-1
3D FreeSculpt
Myriwell

I think the onus on HGSpot is to explain what contribution they made to an already running machine design. I'm betting it's just translation & localization.

It looks like one innovation is that Mac compatibility might have been ditched. That might just be a lack of interest or lack of market to justify localizing the software.
