Following the announcement earlier this month, RatRig has fully unveiled the V-Core 4 3D printer. This innovative printer offers a variety of features and customization options for users looking for flexibility and performance.
Versatility and flexibility
The V-Core 4 offers three print modes, including standard CoreXY, Hybrid and IDEX. Hybrid mode utilizes two additional motors for the Y-axis to increase acceleration, while IDEX mode makes it possible to print multiple materials, make copies or create mirror images. This versatility makes the V-Core 4 an extremely attractive proposition for users with different printing requirements.
Customizability and expandability
Another outstanding feature of the V-Core 4 is its customizability. It is available in three different sizes: 300 x 300 x 300 mm, 400 x 400 x 400 mm or 500 x 500 x 500 mm, all with the same frame. This allows users to add upgrades, such as panels to create a complete enclosure or the upcoming multi-material module or HEPA + carbon filter kit.
High-precision print preparation
The V-Core 4 features a Beacon Eddy current displacement sensor for bed meshing, which means that the V-Core 4 achieves automatic Z-calibration through Beacon Contact. This feature ensures precise print preparation and minimizes manual intervention by the user.
Technological innovations
Innovative features of the V-Core 4 include semi-automatic Z-offset calibration, ultra-fast synchronized tool changes via RatRig's signature "Toolshift" technology and steel linear rails on each axis. These advanced technologies make the V-Core 4 a powerful tool for demanding printing applications.
Availability and pricing
Although there is currently no official information on the release date of the V-Core 4, the page on the RatRig store indicates "April 2024", suggesting a full release this month. The price of the printer remains unknown, but more information will surely be available soon. As of today, you can already sign up for our newsletter on our website. There you will be informed directly when the sale starts.
Conclusion
Overall, the RatRig V-Core 4 presents itself as an extremely promising 3D printer that impresses with its versatility, customizability and technological innovations. With its various printing modes, expandability and precise print preparation, the V-Core 4 is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a powerful and versatile 3D printer.
