3D Printer Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo | Starter Package

Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo 3D Printer | Starter Kit — is a ready-made set for learning 3D printing using FDM technology in a STEM laboratory of an educational institution. It allows students to create multicolored educational models, functional prototypes, and details for practical work, developing digital skills and engineering thinking. The kit is suitable for creating a modern educational space and includes a printer, adhesive, and a supply of PETG plastic for systematic classes. The 3D printer meets the basic requirements of the current typical list of equipment for classrooms and STEM laboratories, approved by the order of the Ministry of Education №574.

What's included in the set:

• Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo 3D printer — 1 pc.
• Magigoo Original 50 ml glue for the working surface of the 3D printer — 1 pc.
• Farm 3D PETG plastic 1 kg 1.75 mm — 4 pcs.*

*The colors of the four spools can be chosen from the available assortment.

All components are presented on the site as separate items. You can view their full specifications, configuration, and ordering conditions via the links.

Brief description of the set components

Multicolor FDM printer for educational design

Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo has a closed design with an aluminum frame and a working area of 256 × 256 × 256 mm, which is enough to produce educational models, electronic housings, and mechanism parts. The CANVAS system automatically switches the filament and allows using up to four colors in one model, so students can create more understandable visual aids and more complex projects. Calibration of the platform at 121 points reduces the preparation time for printing, the camera and Wi-Fi help the teacher to monitor the printing process, the touch screen simplifies the control of the printer, and USB allows transferring prepared files. The printer can be used in technology, computer science, physics lessons, and during STEM projects to go through the full cycle of work — from creating a digital model to checking the finished prototype.

Adhesive for a stable first layer

Magigoo Original with a volume of 50 ml is designed for FDM/FFF printing with PLA, ABS, PETG, HIPS, and TPU materials. The tool is applied in a thin layer to the working platform, improves the adhesion of the first layer, and reduces the risk of the model peeling off or deforming. After cooling, the printed product is easier to remove, and the glue residues are easily removed from the surface. One bottle is designed for more than 100 applications, so it helps to reduce the number of unsuccessful launches during regular classes.

PETG plastic for durable educational models

The set includes four spools of Farm 3D PETG weighing 1 kg with a standard diameter of 1.75 mm, compatible with the Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo printer. A stock of 4 kg allows conducting a series of practical classes, organizing group work, and reprinting models after refining student projects. PETG allows producing durable housings, mounts, mechanism parts, and functional prototypes that can not only be demonstrated but also tested in work. The low shrinkage of the material helps to achieve more stable results and reduces the risk of part deformation during printing.

Ideas for lessons and STEM projects

• Mathematics and geometry: printing of solid bodies, sections, coordinate models, and details for studying the scale.
• Physics and mechanics: creation of gear transmissions, pulleys, levers, bridges, and models for studying loads.
• Computer science and design: modeling of housings for educational electronics, sensor holders, and robot parts.
• Biology and natural sciences: manufacturing of cell, organ, molecule models, terrain relief, and other visual materials.
• Project work: going through the full cycle from 3D modeling and preparing a file for printing to checking and improving the finished prototype.
