The LulzBot Mini was built to work out of the box, with no complicated assembly process getting in the way of you creating. Operating the Mini is the same- straightforward software, easy to read documentation and an army of LulzBot enthusiasts eager to help out people getting started.
But, we didn't just build this printer for ease of use. You will still find flexible, industrial strength capacity from this machine.
With its open filament system your LulzBot Mini has nearly unlimited potential for new materials. For optimal performance, we suggest printing with LulzBot-supported filament available for purchase on LulzBot.com.
The LulzBot All-Metal Hot End heats up to 300°C (572°F) and the bed heats up to 120°C (248°F), meaning your printer can heat up to temperatures required for industrial-grade materials.
