CEL developed our first 3D printer, Robox, in 2014 in response to a need within this new market for a machine which is easy to use and reliable with wide range of uses suitable for professional and home users. Our aim to create a machine which can produce high quality items without prior knowledge of 3D printing was rewarded consecutively in 2016 and 2017 by the huge user base of 3D hubs with title "Best of Plug'n'Print". Robox has been complimented with upgrades and accessories over the past few years which have easily kept it ahead of competitor feature-sets. Key to this is a patented material flow control system which is unique to Robox. This system is being included in a new product which will expand the maximum possible build size and therefore the potential market for Robox machines. Funding from an innovation loan will help CEL to grow with a market which has huge potential as a technology export for the UK. In addition to an expanding range of products CEL has secured funding which will enable us to use our knowledge of additive manufacturing systems and techniques to create new methods of utilising these tools. This new innovation in industrial additive manufacturing will futher boost UK technology output.

CEL于2014年开发了我们的第一台3D打印机Robox，以满足这一新市场对一种易于使用、可靠且适用于专业和家庭用户的广泛用途的机器的需求。我们的目标是创造一种无需3D打印先验知识就能生产高质量产品的机器，这一目标在2016年和2017年连续两年获得了巨大的3D集线器用户群的奖励，其标题为“最佳即插即用打印”。在过去的几年里，Robox一直在进行升级和配件，这使得它轻松地保持在竞争对手功能集的领先地位。实现这一点的关键是Robox独有的专利物流控制系统。这一系统将被纳入一个新产品，这将扩大Robox机器的最大可能建造规模，从而扩大潜在市场。来自创新贷款的资金将帮助CEL在一个作为英国技术出口潜力巨大的市场上成长。除了不断扩大的产品范围外，CEL还获得了资金，这将使我们能够利用我们对添加剂制造系统和技术的知识来创造利用这些工具的新方法。工业添加剂制造领域的这一新创新将进一步提振英国的技术产出。
