Safety First

Look after yourself

No matter what printer you are using, Ultra Fine Particles (UFP) will be produced; after all, we are melting plastic. A basic requirement for all 3D printers is to have an enclosed print area, but it is simply not enough to keep you from being exposed to the emissions. Unless you have installed a venting system yourself, the UFP will still be present in the enclosed print chamber.

Now, here’s the what sets the UP BOX+ apart from other FDM 3D printers: UP Air Filter system. The UP Air Filter is an advanced, two-in-one system made up of the HEPA filter and Active Carbon Filter that constantly works to draw in the UFP and VOC emitted during printing.

Last 300hrs / 3 months of printing

All 3D printers when printing with ABS or PLA have been characterized as high emitters of Ultra Fine Particles.
Having a 3d printer with HEPA air filtration system can dramatically reduces exposure by around 93%, especially in an office or classroom environments.

The UP BOX’s HEPA filter and enclosed print area reduce up to 91% of the UFP emissions.

Pull the plug on power outage woes

You’re on your final leg of a long, long print job; the end is near and it only has about half an hour to go. Suddenly you’re struck by a power cut, you forgot to pay the electricity bill or someone accidentally turned the power off.

Hours, wasted! Filament, wasted!

The new smart feature of the UP BOX+ allows you to pick up from where you left off and finish off the print seamlessly. Users are prompted whether they want to resume the print upon turning the printer back on.

Filament detection function

Running out of filament halfway through a print job is another thorn in our side. Usually, it’s a case of overestimating how much plastic is left on the spool, but it’s a situation that costs you time and money.

Most 3D printers will keep printing because it doesn’t know that and you end up with a model with a whole chunk missing. Luckily, the UP BOX+ is smarter than that because we have fitted it with a filament detection system that automatically pauses the print when activated.

This gives you the window of opportunity to save your progress by simply loading in a new spool and resuming the print from where it left off.

Control at the palm of your hand

Are you using an iPad? The newest software, UP Studio, has made it that much easier to wire up your iPad to the UP BOX+, without actual wires! How awesome is that?

You can control the printer straight from your iPad! Simply connect your printer to the iPad via WiFi. Just download the app for your iPad from Apple App Store and have the ability to print with your UP BOX+ at your finger tips
