2Bot Releases ModelMaker for Architects and Engineers: Redmond, WA November 27, 2007 – 2BotSM Corporation, the inventor of the affordable 2Bot 3D modelmaking system, announced the launch of its ModelMaker™ at AutoDesk University. Attendees to the industry event in Las Vegas will see the first public demonstration of a machine can carve a physical scale topographical model in its entirety in less than an hour and rapidly creates the pieces for architectural and engineering models in minutes. ModelMaker™ automates the tedious creation of scale models and parts, a task that has traditionally been performed manually at great expenditures of time and cost. Attempts in recent years to equip model shops with CNC or Rapid Prototyping machines only assisted with the production of small 3D components, which still required a lot more manual labor or lengthy CNC programming times that required expertise and skill. However, 2Bot’s ModelMaker™ delivers a complete solution including very easy-to-use software that can result in anyone in an office being able to create topological models within an hour of using the system. “ModelMaker™ makes the task of model creation vastly easier for professional firms. Accurate scale models of proposed developments are produced through a very simple software interface and CNC technology that requires no experience to use effectively,” says 2Bot CEO Paul Nye. 2Bot delivers these advanced CNC capabilities in a very small package. The desktop-sized machine sits on a 30 x 30-inch footprint and weighs only 50 pounds. Despite its compact size, ModelMaker™ can produce scale models of limitless area. The system automatically segments larger-area models into easily panelized sections. ModelMaker™ is the first CNC device especially designed for the office environment. It runs from a standard electrical outlet and features many user-accessible parts, which are protected by 2Bot’s one-year replacement warranty. In contrast to 3D printers, which build 3D forms through an additive process of plastic resins sold by the manufacturer at exorbitant prices, the 2BOT method is subtractive. The device carves 3D shapes out of blocks of common modeling media such as wood or foam, giving designers a wide palette of affordable design materials. “When considering the money invested in staff hours to produce a complex model and the capital costs of power tools in a model shop, the 2Bot ModelMaker is a very smart investment for even small design firms,’ says Nye. The suggested retail price of the machine and accompanying PC-based software is $9000. “Just the convenience alone is a value. Model-making with 2Bot technology is on average ten times faster than any of the alternatives. Our site testing has shown that an average firm can recoup its investment in the system after just five projects.” The 2Bot currently supports AutoCAD DWG and DXF data, and SketchUp KMZ files. It will also currently handle STL from just about any major CAD product. More file format support is planned in the near future. Nye expects the device will soon be distributed through CAD, AEC and 3D design software resellers. Product specifications and purchase information can be found at the 2Bot official site at www.2Bot.com. This debut product is only one application out of many for 2Bot’s user-affable CNC technology, according to Nye. “We definitely envision that 2Bot devices will become the preferred fabrication tool in the design world,” he says. “With a technology that has become so compact, easy, and practical, other businesses, even households, will eventually become small centers of manufacturing.”
About 2Bot 2Bot is the first CNC machine to be conceptualized, engineered, and produced with its own mass production in mind. This allows prices to be so low that the typical professional environment can afford one. We envision that 2Bot will soon become a standard part of each professional’s tool set. 2Bot will make the creation of objects from ideas so effortless that it becomes a common event in your everyday design process. 2Bot systems are currently available for architects and hobbyist engineers. 2Bot Corporation is based in Redmond, WA and is privately held. 2Bot is a service mark of 2Bot Corporation.

2Bot to present at today’s Keiretsu Forum Angel Capital Expo Redmond, WA. November 16 2007 - 2Bot Corporation, the inventor of the affordable 2Bot 3D modelmaking system, was chosen out of hundreds of other companies to present at today’s Keiretsu Forum Angel Capital Expo, which is being held at Microsoft’s Northern California Campus in Mountain View. Organized by the world’s largest angel investment network, Keiretsu Forum, Angel Capital Expo is a recurring event across the United States created to foster collaboration among angel groups, as well as reach out to the larger investment community. 2Bot is one of 12 companies that will present to over 300 of Keiretsu Forum's Bay Area members and accredited investor guests. 2Bot has created a line of professional and ‘household’ manufacturing systems, including its architectural modelmaking system that will debut at Autodesk University in Las Vegas on November 27, 2007. Founder Paul Nye believes that within a few years, 2Bot will revolutionize the way professionals, schools and home owners alike will create products in the future. “We are aiming for a 2Bot on every desk,” says Paul Nye, founder and President of 2Bot Corporation. "In the future, as opposed to going to Wal-Mart to get a replacement for something that is broken in the house, it will be easier, faster and cheaper to simply make it on-the-spot in your home office. The possible applications of the 2Bot system are endless and will affect everybody in all stages of their life. Angel Capital Expo is a tremendous opportunity for us to generate the additional capital, resources, and connections we need to bring our incredible product to every household in America.”
