View DealThe Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo scored 4.5 stars in our review, earning a TechRadar Pro Highly Recommended badge.
What really stands out here is the ability to perform multi-color 3D printing with the easy-to-use CANVAS system mounted on the side of the machine. Here, four filaments feed through into a single nozzle printhead.
During testing, Alastair found this unit well-suited to home and small business use, and it works with both standard PLA and engineering materials.
He said: "If you are a small business looking to make functional parts on a budget, then the Centauri Carbon 2 really does live up to expectations."
And he added, "as the prints came off the print bed, the printer didn’t fail to impress. The multifilament printing quality is exceptionally good, with clean lines."
I've included a gallery from Alastair's testing below, so you can get an idea of what to expect from this machine.
