$3K price tag is okay for a 3in1 machine. Considering parts shortages, it’s understandable for the 5-6 month wait as they start shipping in Dec. Bear in mind, Snapmaker may be quite optimistic about the ship date, as if they say 2023 it would definitely scare people away. It’s not for me, I need a machine now and would very much be silly if I throw down 3K for a printer that is mostly renders. Keep developing it then show it to reviewers, it does looks nice.
Just get a Bambulab P1S with 4 color printing for $949, a TwoTrees TTC450 for $450, and a creality falcon laser cutter for $400. Save over $1000, have more colors to print at once with a faster printer, a bigger CNC machine with more power, and a bigger faster laser cutter. and.... do 3 things at once AND..... only ONE machine is down if something fails instead of the whole thing.
Also you don't have chips and dirt from the cnc cutting interfere with the 3d printing, both operations require vastly different operating environments and a dusty environment is very bad for clean 3d prints. I agree that having 3 separate machines is ideal but some people don't have the space and/or don't use all functions equally, in that case something like an Artisan would offer a reasonable solution.
This most American advertisement seen for 3d printer.. It makes it all sounds so amazing... only thing is missing is an explosion in the background and an American flag.
Hi, thank you for asking .There is a compatible chart of all Snapmaker machines and modules: forum.snapmaker.com/t/we-haven-t-forgotten-2-0-owners-provide-some-thoughts-on-the-backward-compatibility-of-artisan/26639
This came out after me buying the Snapmaker 2.0 A350, and winning an Original. Can't wait to be able to afford this model. I'll gladly promote a sponsorship? lol
It's to bad you couldn't launch a corexy machine, but it makes sense because you guys are using it for a CNC. Looks really good, but the price is rather high.
That seems amazing, I'm really excited !! Just two things : - having a 300° hotend isn't really interesting if the bed can only reach 60° - why sticking to the bed-slinger design instead of the gantry moving in X and Y ?
Hi Marco, thank you for asking. - high-temperature zone (aka inner zone) that can reach 110°C, whereas the highest temperature of the outer zone is 80°C. - Because it is a 3-in-1 machine, we seek greater stability in the body. This not only results in high printing accuracy, but also in increased stability of other functions.
Engraving steel is going to be a tough job for this machine with probably less than satisfactory results, cutting steel absolutely not. The spindle might have enough power but the rest of the machine doesn't. Rule of thumb, you never want to cut anything harder than what the machine is made out of, in this case aluminium. Also the toolhead X axis and bed Y axis are moved by belts, which are not rigid enough the gantry is too big too offer much rigidity as well. Honestly I wouldn't attempt to cut anything metal with this machine, just keep it to wood or plastics.
@@joeillingworth1141 Clear or blue acrylic is transparent to most diode lasers, that's why not :P. It's just going to go mostly trough the plastic and heat up the backing board. Polycarbonate, PET and PVC have the same issues with diode lasers since the laser has a wavelength of 450nm and the acrylic won't absorb anything above 400nm. You really want a CO2 laser (more like 11nm wavelength) if you're going to cut/engrave acrylic often, there are some hacky ways to do it with diode lasers but it's probably going to result in melted plastic and just a certified bad time around.
Looks like with an adhesive sheet or cardboard etc you can get an etch but likely not a cut... gives me some fun ideas for thermochromic dye in cast acrylic to control opacity :P
@@joeillingworth1141 Yeah, that's one of the hacky ways. You can engrave the adhesive sheet but it's going to end up in a mess if you want to then cut the acrylic below it. Putting dye in cast acrylic could be a solution though, just make sure the dye can absorb the given wavelength of the laser well enough.
Artisan itself uses a silent drive chip (TMC2209), plus this time the hardware structure has been optimized, using a new design of linear module X, Y is now changed to the form of synchronous belt, it is reasonable to say that the resonance will be smaller than the screw (this point can be explained to the user without specific) Software this time on the vibration and noise has also done some optimization
@@Snapmaker Thank you for this promising answer. But I have two counter-questions. If synchronous belts are used, can they be tensioned afterwards? And isn't this system the cause of inaccuracies along the x and y axes in CNC milling?
What a device ! It is possible to use aluminium for the cnc ? Other desktop cnc have 200W too, but it’s is right for the bearings ? Really interested in this !!
@@queithai9035 yes your right....hmh, i saw copperplate is in this list..? But i think to use the cnc with aluminium or steel ( i know slow speed, small too, etc...) is would be the most interesting renewal...
@@paulgunter9189 General rule of thumb, you can't cut anything harder than the material of the gantry. So aluminium will be difficult (but I've seen some examples of it doable on the Artisan) but steel basically impossible.
@@Snapmaker Hi, thank you for the reply. Those are the same materials you are listing on your website. Is there a chance that it can CNC Aluminium or Olive Wood (harder than walnut) by reducing the translational velocity of the whole spindle?
Eegh, that intro hurts me, why do they feel the need to add a slow steel scraping noise to a linear guideway. Get your production team some grease and teach them how steel on steel bearings should sound.
Before ordering anything I check the seller's privacy policy. Unfortunately Snapmaker does not comply with EU privacy laws and makes it impossible to exercise your privacy rights. So, no matter how awesome this machine might be, I won't be ordering until the people at Snapmaker understand that many Europeans are fed up with their data being kept or sold for marketing purposes. In China human rights don't matter, but in the rest of the world they do.

Wow, impressive presentation. Great new and solid features. As a current SM A350 user, I Love it.
Thank you!

Wish they would actually provide the longer rails on the 2.0 they advertised
Just get a Bambulab P1S with 4 color printing for $949, a TwoTrees TTC450 for $450, and a creality falcon laser cutter for $400.

Seems like good suggestion. What about qidi x max3 x plus 3?

I agree that having 3 separate machines is ideal but some people don't have the space and/or don't use all functions equally, in that case something like an Artisan would offer a reasonable solution.
Is that a 5 axis mount at 3:44? Is there any plan to release that after the Artisan comes out?
This most American advertisement seen for 3d printer..
It makes it all sounds so amazing... only thing is missing is an explosion in the background and an American flag.
Im gonna buy one, then print my own snap maker. Then imma return the original
One may not believe such wonderful machine exist unless seeing (or feeling!) Cool snapmaker#
Will it still be compatible with previous modules or add-ons?
Hi, thank you for asking .There is a compatible chart of all Snapmaker machines and modules: forum.snapmaker.com/t/we-haven-t-forgotten-2-0-owners-provide-some-thoughts-on-the-backward-compatibility-of-artisan/26639
I feel like this is what the 2.0 should have been. I used the 2.0 from kickstarter maybe 3 times. Its loud, and slow on all fronts
This came out after me buying the Snapmaker 2.0 A350, and winning an Original. Can't wait to be able to afford this model. I'll gladly promote a sponsorship? lol
Is it possible to buy just the artisan with the CNC module? (to reduce price maybe?)
I'm going to buy one soon I really can't wait!
This is amazing!
Looking so good
Thank you!
Is a dynamic laser control possible? so that you can engrave pictures with diffrent shades?
Any chance the new heads or software will make it back to the Snapmaker 2? The ones that funded all this :)
I have noticed that Luban will ask if you have a single or double extruder with the 2.0, so fingers crossed.
Yeh we need double extruder for 2.0. It's a pain to buy new snapmaker for double extruder only.
Luban will work on all models. And the dual extruder is compatible for 2.0
I'll have to read some reviews before I get this. Might be. Christmas gift for myself
Ditto.
@@videopolice432 and saw the price. Ouch
Waiting for independent reviews as well, it's interesting to not see any at this point...
Sure, I guess more reviews are coming. We will upload unboxing & review videos soon as well.
@@KRGraphicsCG for a 3 in 1 an okay price if it does every function good but yes 3k is a lot of money
Wish it would be a 3D printer only option

Just amazing, ty.
Hello, is shipping in December a reality or guess?..Thank you.
Filament Dryer mentioned at 3:37 does not exist yet. Will it ever exist ?
It's in the planning, but it not a done deal.
Any news about the 5Axis module?
Wow , nice
Give me one to try it 🙂
Could someone share the souce for that nice robot arm?
Love it 👍
Can it cnc metals like steel or aluminum?
Hi, CNC supports: Hardwood (Beech, Walnut), Softwood, HDF, MDF, Plywood, Jade, Carbon Fiber, Acrylic, Epoxy Tooling Board, PCB
Short-no. Too flexible frame, too low power
Wish i can upgrade my Snapmaker 2.0 a350 and hopefully this one is faster than this model tho
That seems amazing, I'm really excited !!
Just two things :
- having a 300° hotend isn't really interesting if the bed can only reach 60°
- why sticking to the bed-slinger design instead of the gantry moving in X and Y ?
the bed can reach 110° (and 80° in the outer zone)
Hi Marco, thank you for asking.
- high-temperature zone (aka inner zone) that can reach 110°C, whereas the highest temperature of the outer zone is 80°C.
- Because it is a 3-in-1 machine, we seek greater stability in the body. This not only results in high printing accuracy, but also in increased stability of other functions.
men , at 300 degrees C , carbon fiber with PA12 or Pa6 needs only 50C max on the bed ( polymaker ) :S
@@Airborntx yes, but you won’t get the sufficient chamber temp
With the new CNC module, can it cut through 1-2mm or steel?
I’m wondering the same seems like it wouldn’t be rigid enough for steel. Especially with the quick attach thing going on.
Engraving steel is going to be a tough job for this machine with probably less than satisfactory results, cutting steel absolutely not. The spindle might have enough power but the rest of the machine doesn't.

$4500 for people in Australia 😳
when will any bigger CNC options arrive, to be able to cut aluminium too?
With experience, you can cut aluminium even with the 50W-Module
Wow, really?
@@Fleshybitz yes, but i would never do this.
What is 5axis price in india
can it cnc metal?
It can. But probably once.
Can it cut metal?
There are some materials that can be applied: Basswood
Leather
Brick
Slate
Stainless steel
Anodized aluminum
Corrugated board
MDF
Would the laser be able to engrave and cut acrylic sheets for making tokens to upgrade board game components?
Don't see why not :)

In a list of possible materials they didn't name any metals so I don't think so
You can laser cut some metals though
