In the ProDesk3D, 3D printing outfit botObjects has come up with not only the first full color desktop 3D printer, but thanks to its anodized aluminum body, unquestionably one of the prettiest.
The company's goal was to think about how 3D printers might look in 5 years, aiming to put clear water between the ProDesk3D and its "kit-like contemporaries." To print in color, it uses a cartridge system capable of mixing five base colors of PLA.
Because botObjects also describes itself as a software company, it claims the ProDesk3D takes the pain out of software configuration, working straight out of the box and "understanding the composition"of your 3D computer models.
