Super fine little 3D printer.

Mar 24, 2018

If it is plastic molding quality you want, this printer is not for you. However, if it is small parts in a quite acceptable quality, where the finish does not have to be absolutely perfect and you do not want to spend much money on the equipment. Yes, then the Mini Fabrikator V2 Printer are made for you.
I am a keen RC enthusiast, with DIY 210mm drones, and small aircraft as a hobby, and have now owned the Mini Manufacturer V2 for two months. I have not regretted my purchase at any time, and have since printed all the small fittings, holders etc. that I have always missed.
Follow the manual or one of the many great instructional videos on Youtube, and you're ready to print, PLA or ABS in less than an hour.
I design myself in the free Tinkercad 3D program, or download free STL files on pages like Thingiverse, upload them to Mini Manufacturer V2, and then the magic happens. Never again will you be missing the bracket, or camera holder who will make your RC hobby, or other hobby perfect.
Print area are only 100x100x100mm, but it is not a problem, just divide your item into two, three or more pieces, and glue them together. No problem at all.
My only regret, is that I was so long about deciding to buy the Mini Manufacturer V2. Now it's the end of clumsy amateur solutions, I'm just printing what I need, and it comes out looking professionally, and very very important for my hobby, light weight.

Good Printer Overall, great value with some quality concerns

Feb 18, 2018

So I got this delivered in less than a week from Hong Kong. Pulled it out of the box and a screw plopped out! Opened up the top panel and found where it fell out from. Screwed it back in with no problems. Also, it appears that the motor coils are scratched. Luckily the printer is not impacted by these problems but definitely not the best quality control out there.
But after setting it up, (which was surprisingly easy) I got it to print quite well. Even though it was my first 3d printer, I got it to print well within 2 hours. Printed the included (small) amount of PLA with success at 210c extruder and 60c bed. Print quality is surprisingly good. I would say it can compete with much more expensive machines! The only drawbacks of this printer so far are the small print volume 10cm*10cm*10cm and the heated bed only goes up to 60c which can make ABS difficult to print. Otherwise, it's an excellent printer and absolutely great value. At the $150 USD I picked it up for, there is no printer out there that can even come close to touching it in terms of bang-for-buck.

Fabulous fabrikator mini V2

Jan 16, 2018

I have bought this printer and its absolutely marvellous. Had some things to tweak but now its printing high quality parts very precise. Printing in PETG now wich it does splendid.
Some things you must do;
- do the z axis mod with the 2 nuts on top and bottom,
- adjust the print bed as low as possible,
- the heated bed does 75 Celsius if you want,
Would recommend this for starters and anyone already experienced.
Started just 2 weeks ago with no knowledge what so ever, A big thumbs up.

Absolut Top Preis Leistungverhältnis

Installation war ein wenig kompliziert es dauert ein wenig bis alles eingestellt ist und man sollte ein wenig Ahnung haben.
Druckergebnis und Qualität absolut hervorragend wenn man den Preis berücksichtigt habe deutlich teurere Drucker hier die nicht viel besser sind bisher nur PLA probiert funktioniert problemlos Für 126 Euro ein Schnäppchen.

Very satisfied with this printer

This is an excellent printer hardware, out of the box working like charm. The sw is not so perfect. The USB driver hangs regularly, so it is highly advised to print from the SD card. HK provides two files with initial printer and print material configuration, which are not I think this is a printer is aimed to beginners. Would be helpful from HK to fine tune the provided configuration files (temp. and speed) to guarantee a successful first print. I had to spend some hours with google to find the settings until the first layers was sticking well.

Great printer. I own one of the first Cel-Robox on the market and it broke during first print and now its just gathering dust. The Fabrikator v2 is fantastic and now i own 3 lightsabers thanks to the printer.

Good for it's price

May 30, 2017

I purchased this printer as my first 3d printer, even though I have almost all the parts to build a massive 800x800x800mm volume Ultimaker type printer. It's build quality is good, solid and well finished. It's very easy to use, even for a beginner, although you should read some other documentation about 3d printing than the one provided. Also, the prints are quite ok if using the right material (it's not very good with PETG, but good enough with ABS and PLA). Also, if you want to print some big model, it's best to put it on the SD card and print directly from the printer, sometimes the connection through USB fails midprint.

Pros:
-well built, looks good also
-compact
-easy to work with
-sd card
-ABS prints in 0.1mm layer resolution look fantastic
Cons:
-heat bed heats only to max 50 degrees C, needs raft or brim for ABS (also glue or hairspray, or even ABS juice)
-printhead only heats to ~247
-PETG doesn't print very well
-USB connection sometimes is lost and print ruined

Overall: for this price, it's very good, but don't expect it to be amazing
