Larger production does wonders on manufacturing costs

BEEVERYCREATIVE is a manufacturer of 3D printers based in Portugal, whose flagship product is called BEETHEFIRST, regardless of how eye-watering writing in all caps can be.

Anyway, BEETHEFIRST is the 3D printer that the company deals in.

Originally, the product shipped for €1,805 / $2,439, but now it should be found for €1,618 / $2,1876.

The RigidBot still totally wins, given how much cheaper than $1,000 / €1,000 it is, but they're part of different market regions so it doesn't really matter.

The reason BEEVERYCREATIVE was able to cut the price on its 3D printer is that it increased production rate, which has led to a cut on manufacturing costs.

For those who want to know about the printer itself, here are the highlights: an FFF machine with 100 – 300 micron resolution, and filament thickness of 1.75 mm (PLA).
