The MakerBot Replicator Z18 3D Printer makes solid, three-dimensional objects out of melted filament on a massive 12 x 12 x 18 in. build volume to create full-scale parts. That’s 1.7X bigger than the next-largest competitor. This means users can print more parts faster, and cut down on product development time.

The Z18 also offers the user to control the printer through MakerBot Print or remotely with MakerBot Mobile.Store to organize and access 3D design files in a personal cloud-enabled library. MakerBot’s free downloadable software is compatible with Mac or Windows computers.
