    Seems Anker Has a Run-Away Hit With Their New Anker-Make M5 3D Printer

    Anker Starts A New Brand and A Wildly Popular New Printer!

    You'll hear Eric Villines, Global Head of Anker Communications, talk about their new 3D printer at the press preview just before it went on Kickstarter. Eric said the new AnkerMake M5 solves the most critical issues that have prevented 3D printing from becoming more mainstream like slow print speeds, the need to constantly supervise printing for errors and a complicated set-up. He said the M5 is easy to set up in 3 steps within 15 minutes with user-friendly features including 7x7 auto-leveling, PEI soft magnetic printing bed, auto-resume after power outage and printing notifications. With PowerBoost technology, the basic print speed is 250 mm/s, which can be used for printing jobs that require a smoother and more detailed finish. For faster print for prototyping and less detailed finishes, the M5 can save more time by accelerating the extruder up to 2,500 mm/s². That can reduce the average print times by up to 70% in comparison to other 3D printers. The built-in HD camera can monitor print jobs and if it detects an issue, it will send an alert. Users can view live feeds of their print jobs from anywhere using the AnkerMake mobile app. Supports WiFi and USB connectivity. Magnetic base for easy removal and cleaning. Weight: 27.3 lb. / 19.76 x 17.24 x18.50”. Price will vary as Kickstarter pledges sell out. This project is beyond wildly popular. In about 24 hours it raised over $3M!!
