The Lisa was the winner of the 2015 formnext Startup Challenge and was also voted 2015 Best New Polish 3D Printer, along with taking the FabCon 3.D Start-Up Award 2016. This year, Sinterit has secured an additional €1.1M funding from additive manufacturer FIT AG. The funding will help the company reach additional markets for the Lisa 3D printer, which is a rarity not only in that it’s a desktop SLS 3D printer, but it’s a plug and play SLS 3D printer that’s easy to use and ready to go right out of the box.
Support structures are not required when using the Lisa, and users can even print several models during one session. The Lisa may be simple, but it’s not limited; users can expect full design freedom, strong parts and fine details.
“The only limits are size of the print bed and your imagination,” states the Sinterit team.
Accessibility has not been an issue with the Lisa, but to further that, the team is now reducing the price significantly too, in an effort to offer more users a better solution for making high-quality 3D printed parts and objects.
“Sinterit is happy to offer access to the laser sintering technology to a bigger group of recipients, including smaller companies,” states the team.
One of the greatest benefits in using a SLS 3D printer at the desktop is the level of precision that can be achieved. Numerous moving parts can be created at once, despite their complexity. The 3D prints are durable and temperature resistant.
“This technology uses prints not only for prototyping projects but also for short series or even single piece production,” states Sinterit.
Their price reduction is possible now due to the following:
- Optimization of technological solutions
- Modification of the distribution system
- Launching of online sales
The new price point of €4990 (around $6,000 US) was launched early this week, and is available to all users seeking a high-quality, turnkey 3D printer.
Sinterit co-founder Grzymała-Moszczyński discusses the restructuring in this video interview:
