About BotMill
BotMill 3D Printers are used by customers around the world. Based in Boca Raton, FL, BotMill does business in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.

3D Printing is a great way to test your invention and get real world feedback. As most of our constituents know this technology was a luxury that few had access to. Now at prices as low as $1,065 dollars for the BotMill Axis DIY Kit – we are seeing much wider adoption from innovative self proclaimed engineers. It is true that the larger more expensive machines give companies and well funded operations beautiful prototypes of high detail, intricate parts. However, if your goal is to invent a much needed item and bring it to market you can still communicate your design and intended use to most investors, and companies with a simple prototype. We would love to hear some stories from our customers – Have you been able to market a product or idea with a BotMill printer?
