HOUSTON/Jan. 1, 2023 — re:3D announced the inclusion of UltiMachine‘s ArchiMajor 32bit control board and transition to Klipper firmware with the launch of Gigabot 4, Terabot 4, GigabotX 2 and TerabotX 2. The advanced board features eight integrated stepper motor drivers, three heater outputs, five thermocouple inputs, four controllable fans and eight endstops. The PCB and Raspberry Pi touchscreen controller are housed inside a 16″ electrical enclosure which combine to control an agile software stack with web capabilities. Not only does this board increase Gigabot & Terabot processing power, but it supports better control of re:3D’s supply chain and electronics quality with a strong US manufacturing partner.
“As a US based company, UltiMachine enjoys designing custom solutions to enable open-source US 3D Printer OEMs to enhance their offerings and scale,” says Johnny Russell, UltiMachine’s CEO.
“Installing the UltiMachine ArchiMajor 32bit PCB was a critical evolution in the Gigabot & Gigabot X portfolio,” says re:3D Co-founder and Catalyst, Samantha Snabes. “Not only does the board offer increased performance, it has been critical in our transition to Klipper firmware, a front mounted touchscreen, and wifi connectivity while providing the customer with increased capability for open source modifications. Our relationship with UltiMachine has been critical in ensuring supply chain resiliency.”
