Those who follow 3DMart's new products may have noticed that many new items have been quietly added to our shelves recently. In the future, we will offer more 3D forming technologies and services, including SLM metal printing, CNC machining, laser engraving machines, etc. Please continue to follow us and stay tuned!
Today, we are introducing a new dual extruder model from the LulzBot 3D printer brand: the LulzBot TAZ Pro is officially on sale. After Ultimaker launched its independent dual-extruder 3D printers, other manufacturers have been hot on its heels. Although Ultimaker still holds the leading position in terms of print quality, the LulzBot TAZ Pro is also a good alternative in terms of price.

The new TAZ Pro is capable of dual-material 3D printing, with a large build volume of 280 x 280 x 285 mm. The company's CEO stated: "The TAZ PRO will be the first 3D printer in the series with an independent dual-material system, featuring two independent, heated nozzles." The TAZ Pro incorporates hardened steel E3D components into the new 3D printing model, including nozzles with a 360-degree cooling system to 3D print two filaments in a single part, including manufacturing prototypes with elasticity and low hardness of Shore 85A. 
Using the hardened steel parts of the TAZ Pro, it is possible to 3D print with polymers such as water-soluble, conductive, high-strength, and chemically resistant materials. These materials are too abrasive for general consumer-grade 3D printers using 1.75mm filament, but they become expandable printable materials on this TAZ Pro model. However, since the Ultimaker S5 has developed a harder ruby nozzle for carbon fiber materials, we still recommend checking the hardness before printing special materials to avoid damage to the 3D printer.
The new TAZ Pro 3D printer features a Z-axis belt drive, which shortens cycle times and increases throughput. The belt drive also reduces the effects of Z-wobble, and the new three-axis backlash compensation system improves part quality and accuracy. In addition, new features such as filament run-out detection and low filament alerts have been added.
