DESCRIPTION
RETIRED PRODUCT – We’ve stopped stocking this product or it has been retired by the manufacturer and is no longer for sale. This page remains available for its resources and as a source of potential interest.
The ultimate affordable desktop 3D Printer has arrived and now supports wifi connectivity and will accommodate a 1KG filament spool via the use of an extension bracket and ‘domed’ spool cover.
The Up Box Plus, flagship model in the UP series of 3D printers, has the largest build volume (255x205x205mm), better resolution (100 micron layer thickness) and is 30% faster than UP Plus 2.
Designed for offices, studios and workshops the Up Box is fitted with an integrated levelling probe, is whisper quiet, fully enclosed, self calibrating and includes an air filtration system.
Large Build Volume
UP BOX provide an build volume of 255x205x205mm (WxHxD) for extra large print jobs. Its large print platform enables small batch 3D printing productions to be carry out with unprecedented efficiency.
Fully Automated Platform Calibration
A motorized probe is integrated in the printer for true automatic platform levelling and nozzle height detection. No human intervention is required during printer calibration, providing a seamless 3D printing experience.
Faster Printing with Higher Precision
UP BOX print 30% faster than UP Plus 2. Moreover it prints in 100 micron layer height which gives the best resolution in the UP series.
Enclosed Printing Environment with New ABS Print Surface
The enclosed build chamber maximizes temperature stability, combined with a novel ABS print surface to enhance adhesion, the result is minimum warping for printing large objects.
Quiet Operation and Air Filtration
UP BOX produces very little noise, with a built-in air filter that absorbs fumes and minimizes odour, you will feel comfortable working with it in the same room, on the same desk.
Smart Support Technology
Industrial leading support generation algorithm that produces easily removable support structures and improved print quality. This advanced technology allows difficult and complex designs to be printed at ease.
Powerful But Easy To Use Software
UP software is simple to use, feature rich, fast and free. It’s easy enough for rookies and versatile enough for gurus.

Up Box F.A.Q.
——————————————————-
How easy is it to set up and is it difficult to use?
Smart UP Software and automatic levelling means you are up and running fast, while the heated build platform and enclosed chamber ensures minimal curling. It’s designed with professionals in mind, to give hassle-free, exceptional quality prints.
What kind of computer do I need?
The UP BOX is compatible with computers running Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8, and on Mac OS X. The easy-to-use UP 3D printing software imports .stl files from most 3D CAD systems.
How fast is it and how long does it take to print something?
The UP BOX prints at a speed 30% faster than its smaller sibling the UP Plus 2.
What is the resolution of parts printed?
You can be confident that your models are accurate and precise, printed with layer resolutions of 0.1, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35 and 0.40mm.
How do I maintain it?
There isn’t a lot of maintenance required at all €“ just keep the machine clean, in particular the nozzle and perforated board.
How often should I replace the printing material?
It depends on how often you use the machine. Each reel has enough material to print a variety of 3D models, depending on the size and complexity of design.
How difficult is the material to replace?
It’s a very simple process and change over from reel to reel takes just a few minutes.
