Product Description

The Portabee is the first conveniently portable 3D printer in the world. Easily collapsible in a matter of seconds it fits into a laptop bag and produces real world 3D objects out of plastic that smells like waffles.

The Portabee frame simply clips on and off for transportation. The machine relies on a laptop power supply, some filament material (plastic to be printed) and a laptop computer to function.

Lightweight, weighing in at 2.8kg (6.2lbs) you can bring the Portabee along with you when taking a bus, a train… even on a bicycle in a haversack on your back!

The Portabee opens up numerous possibilities which were previously impractical:

Designers and design engineers can now offer to print out a sample of their design solution at the client’s premises, on the spot and with applied design changes, for quick evaluation.

Educators can loan Portabees to students for a time period to complete a school assignment involving 3D printing, be it an arts, design, or engineering discipline.

An artist can walk into her favourite cafe, suddenly get in a creative mood, whip out the Portabee and a laptop and start designing something and print it out, all while sipping her usual cuppa and enjoying some cheesecake.

Purhase includes one Un-Assembled Portabee 3D Printer Kit, with superb colour illustrated step-by-step assembly guides in PDF.

There is a lead time of approximately 6 weeks while the parts for your machine are printed (by other printers).

Including shipping time, approximate delivery of new Portabee orders are within a 6-7 week window.

We ship worldwide, and a Portabee kit includes tools and accessories, to ensure a good experience through assembly, maintenance and on-going usage.

The printed parts for your machine are available in your color choice.

A 1kg spool of PLA material in your choice of colour is included with each machine.
