This document summarizes information about Robo 3D, a company that produces affordable and easy-to-use 3D printers. It discusses Robo 3D's origins launching successful 3D printers on Kickstarter. It then profiles their new models, the Robo C2 and Robo R2 3D printers, which are positioned for the consumer market. The document also outlines Robo 3D's vision to empower users to bring their ideas to life, their community of users, distribution channels, and product roadmap.

1. Making it uniquely yours is the new standard

2. In January 2013, two San Diego State University
entrepreneurs set out to push the boundaries of 3D
printing with the successful Kickstarter launch of Robo R1
— a high-quality 3D printer that was affordable, easy to
use and accessible for almost anyone.
The campaign raised $650,000 in just 45 days and the R1
quickly became the best-selling 3D printer in the country.
But it was only the beginning...
Seeds of success

3. Enter the Robolution
Robo C2 and Robo R2 provide a fun, easy 3D printing experience that
empowers everyone to bring their ideas to life.
They’re high-quality printers whose cutting-edge feature set includes
everything you’d expect in a modern connected smart device — and at
consumer-friendly price points.

5. Leveraging a vision to provide everyone a fun, easy
3D printing experience — and empower them to
bring their ideas to life with a high-quality printer
whose feature set includes everything you’d expect
in a modern connected smart device —
Robo C2 and Robo R2 were born.

7. Robo in the press
One company, Robo, hopes to straighten out some of the technical
issues and continues to make strides towards affordable, but also smart
and easy-to-use 3D printing technology and supporting accessories:
“simplifying the path to every print.”
Alexandra Laird
The Robo C2 and R2 both appear to be well engineered products and
have a host of features not found on most 3D printers in this price point.
I think they are well worth a look and I can’t wait to get my hands on one.
Michael A. Parker
I’m finishing a review of an amazing Robo 3D printer, an impressive device
and I’m having fun. The company just announced two new additions to
their product line, the Robo C2 and Robo R2 smart 3D printers… and is
set to usher in the next-generation of consumer 3D printing!
Dan Cohen
A technology anyone can use … Ever wished you could bring the things
you imagine to life? With Robo Smart 3D printers, your wish is pretty
much its command!

Market trends

10. State of the industry
The primary market driver for consumer 3D printers costing under $2,500 is the acquisition
of low-cost devices by educational institutions and enterprise engineering, marketing and
creative departments.
Once a niche market, 3D printing has continued its rapid transformation into a broad-based
mainstream technology embraced by consumers and enterprises around the world.
The evolution of hardware and software along with an ever-expanding collection of usable
materials has driven growth in both the consumer and enterprise 3D printing markets.

11. Industry forecast
The increase in 3D printer shipments over the next four years will see the number of units
shipped in 2020 total more than 6.7 million.
3D printer shipments [Worldwide] will expand at a 98.5% compound annual growth rate
through 2020, and total spending will grow at a 66.5% CAGR to $17.7 billion in 2020.
Worldwide shipments of 3D printers will reach 455,772 units in 2016, more than doubling
the 219,168 units shipped in 2015.
Material extrusion is forecast to lead the market through 2020, largely due to the low cost of
entry-level material extrusion printers.
