CES 2017: Monoprice Announces Upgrade, Expansion of Popular 3D Printer Line - 3DPrint.com

California-based online electronics retailer Monoprice entered the world of 3D printing back in 2014, when they introduced the Monoprice Dual Extrusion ABS/PLA/PVA 3D printer. At CES 2016, they unveiled a pair of remarkably inexpensive 3D printers, and in a recent report from IT market research company CONTEXT, Monoprice was revealed to be number five on the top desktop 3D printer manufacturers list, in terms of actual units sold last year. This makes sense, as they’re recording 600% sales growth in 3D printing. Today at CES 2017 in Las Vegas, the company announced the expansion of their popular 3D printer line, introducing some new models for both home and professional use.

Monoprice is well-known for their affordable, quality computer accessories, and with the 3D printing market expected to triple in revenue by the year 2020, is hoping to continue moving onward and upward. The company made upgrades to one of their existing 3D printers, rolled out two models designed for beginners, and introduced their first professional SLA printer. The new printers join the existing models in featuring the latest developments in 3D printing technologies, versatility, rapid printing speed, and solid metal construction.

Select Mini v2

Bernard Luthi, CEO of Monoprice, said, “With an aggressive growth plan and increased manufacturing power, we’re focused on maintaining our strong position in burgeoning technology categories like 3D printing, so we can continue delivering better and wider choices at more affordable prices to our customers. We’re also keeping our finger on the pulse of other product categories that present opportunities for us and our disruptive business model. After vetting the home appliance industry, we realized we owed it to our customers to introduce quality products at fair prices.”

The company remains focused on expanding their cost-effective 3D printer line and keeping the technology accessible to everyone. Their new 3D printers will be debuted and demonstrated at CES 2017 this week. First up, Monoprice upgraded their best-selling $199 Select Mini 3D printer to version 2.0, adding some community-inspired upgrades, but keeping it at the same low price. Their new plug and play MP Delta Mini 3D printer comes with Wi-Fi, and can create high-quality 3D prints right out of the box. It’s the perfect option for beginners, and even more perfect for your wallet – at just $149.99, the Delta Mini is the company’s lowest-cost 3D printer!

MP Select Mini 3D printer

The professional MP 3 Series Commercial 3D printer is well-suited for industrial and commercial rapid prototyping, thanks to its large 400 x 400 mm build volume. This model will set you back $799.99, but has a full enclosure and features the latest FDM technology. Finally, Monoprice is introducing the big kahuna, their first professional quality SLA resin printer. The price for the MP Maker Prism Professional SLA Resin Printer may seem steep at $3,499, but the 3D printing solutions it offers are on par with other 3D printers that cost over $9,000. It’s ideal for creating objects that require high levels of accuracy, such as prototypes, jewelry, and dental products, due to its impressive 0. 03 micron layer resolution.

Monoprice is also displaying their new home appliances and audio technology at CES, including a new blender and a new Onyx Series 3.5 mm audio cable. All of their new 3D printers and appliances will be start shipping in the first quarter of 2017. Visit them at CES 2017 at the Venetian Palazzo Hospitality Suites, #VEN-3132. Don’t forget, 3DPrint.com will be also be roaming the show floors, and bringing you all the latest from CES 2017! Discuss in the Monoprice forum at 3DPB.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which technology to choose: the method of fusing granules (FGF) or polymer filaments (FFF / FDM)?

What are the kinematics and mechanics of the Discovery equipment?

In this respect, all Discovery equipment differs from budget additive solutions. The products are based on the kinematic diagram of a CNC machine. Gears, pulleys, lead screws, no belts. HIVIN rail guides are used. The entire structure is made with European quality from advanced products in the machine tool industry.

What consumables can be used with Discovery products?

Any material (other than PEEK and PEKK) sold in bars or pellets. First of all, thanks to the heating of the table to 175 ° C and vacuum fixation, as well as due to the installed nozzles made of hardened steel.

How is such a large print platform heated?

A matrix of separate equidistant heaters is built into the platform from the bottom side; these modules provide uniform heating of the surface of the printing platform. The maximum recorded temperature difference over the entire area is 3°C.

How to speed up printing on such large dimensions?

There is a special method for properly emptying the internal volume, which you can learn more about from our technical experts. This procedure will have very little effect on the strength and elasticity of the print object, but will still reduce the time by up to 60%.
It is important to consider that with a large range of large-sized products, it is better to consider Super Discovery 3D Printer or Super Discovery 3D Printer Workstation with a capacity of up to 11 kg / h (depending on the material used).

Is it possible to upgrade this equipment for a specific enterprise?

Yes. Most of the Discovery machines can be upgraded for a specific production project. This is possible, since the equipment was designed for the tasks of Production 4.0, and our specialists will help to integrate it correctly.

What is the warranty for this equipment?

24 months, which is 1.5 - 2 times more than analogues from Europe, Russia and China. Permanent customer support is provided directly by the vendor or iQB Technologies specialists.

How to get a high quality product so that it can be handed over as a final product?

3D printing is basically a high quality preform process. If you need to get the final product, it is suggested to use milling or turning equipment, manual machining, priming, painting or varnishing.
This is often not necessary as the product is not visible.

Legal issues of the near future: 3D printers

Photo from amazonaws. com

3D Printing technology, which appeared in the last millennium, was used only by specialized companies and large industries until recently. But over the past three years, equipment has fallen in price by an order of magnitude. The ability to create an object at home, with only a standard "raw material" and a computer file-instruction, means a fundamental shift in the control of production towards the consumer. "Pravo.Ru" considers the likely legal problems associated with the spread of 3D printers.

Rapidly developing 3D printing equipment is not yet able to reproduce a working car on its own, but can easily create a simpler object, such as a copy of a sculpture or a machine part. In Europe, prices for such devices start at just 500 euros, while in Russia they still cost between $3,000 and $6,000 for personal 3D printers. Some models can already use almost any material with the desired plasticity.

Current intellectual property rights legislation was in place before the widespread use of 3D printers. Therefore, in the near future, lawyers will have to find answers to a number of new questions - what can be the subject of intellectual property rights, taking into account the peculiarities of the 3D printing process, how to determine them, what is a violation of rights and how they can be protected. Apparently, the new technology will be the same test for this area of ​​legislation as it was before - software, mp3 players and the Internet.

3D printing poses an immediate threat to small manufacturers, especially when the value of the product lies primarily in the design. The simpler the inside of a product, the smaller it is, and the fewer different materials it needs to make it, the more likely it is to be illegally copied. When using a 3D printer, the cost per unit of production is reduced to the cost of raw materials and energy; Obviously, as technology spreads, the price of cartridges will decrease. Under these conditions, copying will inevitably take on a significant scale - for printing, in addition to raw materials, you only need a CAD file (CAD - Computer-Aided Design, computer-aided design). Material is sold in standard cartridges or loaded directly into the printer, and the CAD file can be emailed or posted online.

Now, in most jurisdictions, the owner of the rights can bring a claim against the individual or company directly involved in the illegal copying and those who contributed to the infringement. But from a practical point of view, the current system of rights protection may be ineffective.

Individuals

If the infringer is an individual, the first problem is that before you can sue, you must first find him, which can be difficult in itself. Prosecuting a single minor infringement, especially if the object is made for personal use, is technically difficult and usually not worth the trouble. Search and prosecution can be costly both literally and figuratively in terms of the public image of the copyright holder company. "No one wants to file a lawsuit against individuals - look at Monsanto's PR problems [ international biotechnology corporation. - "Pravo. En" ] arising from their desire to punish farmers for patent infringement," says Peter Yim of the law firm Morrison & Foerster. And almost certainly the compensation received will not cover the costs - in most cases it will be about

Worse, in Britain and other European jurisdictions, copying a product by an individual for personal, i.e. non-commercial use is not considered an infringement of intellectual property rights at all. 100,000 people “printed” the networks and the product,” says David Knight of the law firm Field Fisher Waterhouse. “What will you do in this situation?” It follows that the most heated debate will be about the source of the file, its original distributor - pursuing intermediaries can also be a difficult matter, as the music industry has already seen.

So, the first target will be "accomplices" of the crime, for example, sites on the Internet that allow users to exchange files containing descriptions or images of objects protected by the copyright holder. But Professor John Bryson of the University of Birmingham draws attention to the growing popularity of 3D scanners. “Users of the future will use this technology widely, and it will be very difficult to regulate this area,” he explains.

You can also try to sue the equipment manufacturers. But the prospects for such a process will not be very promising for the rights holder. In the USA at 19In '84, the era of VCRs, a landmark judgment was reached in Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc.. According to this decision, manufacturers of recording devices are exempt from liability for copyright infringement if the devices they produce are created for use with a legitimate purpose (then it was the use of video recorders for illegal copying and watching movies). The same logic will obviously apply to 3D printers - they also have a perfectly legitimate application.

But even when the direct producer is known, prosecution is not necessarily easy. Let's say a 3D print shop has printed a certain object for a customer who has sent the appropriate CAD file. At a minimum, it will be necessary to prove that the print bureau knew that the ordered object violates someone's rights - this may turn out to be a non-trivial task.

Legal entities

What tool to use to protect your intellectual property if the infringer is a legal entity? You need to choose from several basic options - patents, trademark rights and copyrights. If a company "prints" a product patented by another company, the patent owner will have to prove that the new product contains all the structures and components described in the patent. This makes it possible to create a product that resembles the original, but is not similar enough to be considered infringing on the rights of the patent owner, explains Mark Hankin, founder of Hankin Patent Law. Likewise, for a product to infringe trademark rights, confusing similarity must be proven, which is not always obvious.

Finally, copyrights protect, among other things, works of art, such as sculptures. But functions are not subject to protection, so curious situations may arise when, for example, an armchair manufacturer will claim that his chair is primarily a sculpture, which also has an additional functional purpose.

What to do

In this situation it is short-sighted to rely on the protection of the law alone. Elizabeth Ferrill and Robert Yoches of the law firm Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP, advise holders of intellectual property rights that may be at risk to use the following three approaches:

1. Develop, don't defend. Organize your production cycle so that you are always ahead of those who copy your products. If your designers are constantly coming up with new ideas, potential intruders will be less tempted to wait for the CAD file to show up. This model of self-defense has been successfully used by the fashion industry for a long time. However, she has her own Achilles heel - 3D scanners.

Prof. Bryson agrees: “Some UK firms are already preparing to leave the old ways of protecting their intellectual property, because innovation itself protects them. Three or four technologies a year are enough for them to stay ahead, and by the time someone figure out how to copy their product, these firms will already be making money on the next product. "

2. Use technology to your advantage. Printing a quality 3D product at this stage of technology development is not as easy as it sounds. Many users may be willing to pay for an official CAD file for the printer, which is supposed to create fewer printing problems and guarantee a minimum level of quality. In addition, copyright holders can offer an easy way to make some changes to the original file (as Nokia did with cases for the Lumia 820). You can sell, for example, spare parts with additional functionality or made from materials not used by personal 3D printers. But the lawyers consider setting the price of the final product comparable to the cost of home "production" as the most promising technique; however, it is not profitable in all cases.

3. But do not neglect the traditional tools to protect your rights. Protect your product by fixing the rights as soon as possible, and rush to protect them as soon as possible. For example, in the US, companies send letters in the category "cease and desist letters" (lit. "stop and refrain from now on"). This is how HBO secured its rights to the iPhone docking station, designed as the Iron Throne from Game of Thrones.

Ronen Kadushin, designer and consultant, understands those who are not ready to give up traditional methods of protection. "Manufacturers are afraid of the project to 'print' weapons that are not protected by a patent, not because they are weapons - in the US you can just buy them in a store; who needs to print a gun in these conditions? No, manufacturers believe that the technology threatens their sales. A real revolution will begin when anyone can assemble a self-replicating 3D printer for themselves from parts available on the open market. This will mean that the consumer is no longer dependent on the manufacturer. " .

Meanwhile, the international RepRap group, which includes developers from New Zealand, the UK, and the US, is already distributing for free a project of the eponymous printer that can make a copy of itself and is completely user-controlled.
