Innovative Engineering

• Dual Independent Z-Axis and Linear Rails: Equipped with independent 5.18:1 gearboxes and 12mm rods for robust Z-axis movement, while enabling flawless X-axis tramming to the bed.
• Linear rails on the X and Y axes facilitate increased acceleration and faster print speeds, maximizing efficiency and print quality.
• Advanced Bed Leveling: The incorporated BLTouch® probe moves beyond traditional metal corner leveling methods to provide precise mesh mapping, delivering superior first-layer results.
• First-of-its-Kind Active Bed Cooling: This unique system significantly reduces cooling times by more than half, while maintaining print material integrity and boosting machine throughput.
• Mechanical Integrity and Ease of Adjustment: Featuring custom D-shaped motor pulleys and flanged bearings for full belt engagement and consistent performance. Adjustable belt tracking across all axes improves performance and simplifies maintenance.
• Improved Backlash Compensation: Enhances print accuracy by effectively reducing mechanical play in the drive system, resulting in smoother and more precise movements.

Enhanced Reliability and Usability

• Upgraded Homing Accuracy: Precise limit switches replace sensorless homing to improve the printer's operational reliability across all axes.
• Latest Archim Board: The newest Archim board enhances printer performance by supplying separate power channels to motors, fans, and heaters. This design minimizes electrical interference and reduces risks such as overheating or power fluctuations, significantly decreasing the likelihood of print failures.
• Choice of Galaxy Series Tool Head: Factory options include all Galaxy Series Tool Heads, with a focus on the Twin Nebula Dual Tool Heads, available in either 1.75mm or 2.85mm filament backed by powerful 50W heaters and dual-drive gear, direct-drive extrusion.
• Magnetic Bed System: Effortlessly switch between smooth and textured bed surface options, increasing convenience in print removal and overall printer usability.

User-Friendly Design

• Next-Generation Interface: Sporting a resistive touch screen and improved menu options, the TAZ 8’s interface is designed for ease of use in industrial settings, including glove-friendly operation.
• Tool-Free Tool Head Swaps: Utilizes a simple magnetic cap and (3x) thumbscrews for quick, tool-free Tool Head swaps.
• Ergonomic Tool-Free Bed Bolts & Slotted Connector for Bed: Initial setup is simplified with quick and easy installation straight out of the box.
• Integrated Bed Positioning Jigs: Factory-calibrated to ensure identical print bed placement across machines, guaranteeing optimal repeatability.

Streamlined Maintenance and Operation

• Simplified Wiring Harnesses: Redesigned wiring harnesses and Igus cable chains across all axes drastically reduces the source of intermittent failures and keep the wiring properly organized.
• Advanced Filament Monitoring: Includes encoder sensors to detect filament runout and jams, minimizing print disruptions and material waste.
• Stainless Steel Spool Holders: Upgraded from plastic, our stainless-steel spool holders offer superior durability, resisting wear from filament spools to ensure smooth, uninterrupted printing indefinitely.
• Onboard Power for Connectivity: Features an SD card slot for manual printing and a USB-C power cord for integration with the TAZ Connectivity Kit, enabling wireless control of print jobs via software like OctoPrint. Integrates seamlessly with a Raspberry Pi for enhanced connectivity and control, power it directly from the print for a tidy, efficient setup compatible with webcams and accelerometers, allowing for remote monitoring and advanced motion sensing capabilities.
• Ulendo Calibration-As-A Service Compatible: Supports Ulendo’s cutting-edge calibration service, ensuring optimal printer alignment and accuracy with minimal effort.
• FREE Slicing Software & Firmware Updates: With LulzBot, you enjoy continuous improvements at no extra cost—no subscriptions, ever. Our dedicated team regularly updates our slicing software and firmware, enhancing your printer’s capabilities with each release. This commitment means your printer evolves over time, increasing its value and performance, all for free. That’s our promise of outstanding, enduring value.
• One-Year Standard Warranty & Unmatched Serviceability: Every LulzBot printer includes a one-year standard warranty, protecting your investment. This comprehensive coverage supports your 3D printing experience, providing peace of mind with every print.

Superior Construction and Quiet Operation

• Robust Build Quality: Constructed with high-grade sheet metal enclosures and precision aluminum extrusions, the TAZ 8 is built to withstand tough industrial environments.
• Quieter Performance: Our latest Archim board intelligently controls fan speeds during idle periods to minimize noise, enhancing workspace comfort and expanding machine capabilities.
• Enhanced Stability with Anti-Vibration Flaps on X-Axis: A smooth operation, more precise prints, and decreased noise levels are the results of reducing operational vibrations. In addition, less vibration promotes less wear over time, contributing to reduced maintenance needs and further prolonging your printer’s life overall.
