About This File
At the recent 3dexpo event the judges chose the infamous Make: rook as the model for their Clash of the 3D Printers competition. All competitors printed this model, normally used as a torture test for SLA resin printers, at 50mm height without supports. The Ultimaker 2 Go and Ultimaker 2+ won first and second prize in the competition, proving that they're up to printing complex models originally designed for SLA printers. Congratulations to winning competitors 3D Print Station and 3DWiser!
The final printer ranking at the Clash of the 3D Printers was:
1. Ultimaker 2 Go
2. Ultimaker 2+
