The Cube 3 is capable of creating three-dimensional models up to six cubic inches in size, capable of producing prints to a resolution of 75 microns. Courtesy of preloaded filament jets and its own auto-leveling print pad, the Cube 3 is able to print two materials and two colors simultaneously through using recyclable ABS and compostable PLA plastic, which, in a choice of more than 20 colors. The device’s has been designed in such a fashion that it will allow you for the mixing and matching of colors and materials.
