Key Features
The brand new 300DT is Formech's smallest desktop machine to date. Keeping the functionality of its predecessor, the Compac Mini, the 300DT is smaller in volume and lighter than ever. Compared with other compact machines on the market, the 300DT comes with a quiet built in vacuum pump and moulding release. Easy to transport, move, and use, the 300DT is the perfect solution for creative hobbyists, artisans, and students.
