LULZBOT TAZ PRO / TAZ PRO S vs. FUSION3 EDGE
In 2019, Lulzbot announced its Taz Pro, and then an update called the Taz Pro S in 2020, its largest open-source 3D printers targeted at commercial users.
As you’ll see in the comparison below, the USA made Fusion3 F410 is a much better choice than Lulzbot for business and education customers requiring a commercial-grade 3D printing solution.
As you’ll see in the comparison below, Fusion3 F410 has a number of advantages over the Lulzbot Taz Pro and Taz Pro S, including:
- Arrives fully assembled and calibrated
- Large build area
- Fully enclosed, heated print chamber for printing engineering-grade plastics
- The best warranty and support in 3D printing
