Q. Can it engrave brass?
A. Hi Phil, thank you for your question. No but this will etch wood.
The da Vinci 1.0 Pro 3-in-1 3D printer lets you scan, print and engrave all in one place!
The 3-in-1 is even easier to use than its older brothers, making professional-grade printing simpler than ever.
The multi-functional printer is suited to hobbyists, designers and small businesses looking to create impressive, personalised prints and make everyday objects extraordinary.
The rapid, integrated 3D scanner takes only a few minutes to scan your chosen object to industrial-grade resolution and recreate it digitally. You can either print 'as it is' or adapt the scanned file in post-production software to add your own special features.
The 3D printer features an aluminium print bed which spreads heat evenly to decrease the chance of warpage, a low-maintenance extruder design and improved calibration, all of which improve the print quality. The 3-in-1 works with XYZ or other 1.75mm filaments, so you can print in any PLA or ABS thermoplastic of your choice.
Swapping your printer's extruder for the laser engraver lets you personalise your items. It can engrave a design in wood, leather, cardboard and much more.

Q. The da Vinci 1.0 pro says it is a printer scanner and laser engraver. Yet you sell the laser engraver separately. It is included in the basic machine as suggested? Is the laser scanner included in the basic machine? Is the print bed heated? To what temperature? Is it self calibrating for height? What mechanism does it use to move the head?
A. Hi Andrew, thank you for your question. This is a 3 in 1 system so included is the laser engraver 3D printer and scanner. The aluminium bed is heated. The maximum temperature is 110°C. The machine is described as having 'assisted calibration'. The machine takes the measurements, provides the readings and the operator turns the wheels to make the adjustments. There is a tooth belt on X and Y and a screw on the Z.
