Kickstopper：经济实惠型3D打印机

LESS THAN A month into their Kickstarter project to build a “friendly， affordable 3-D printer，” Panda Robotics has canceled their seemingly on-track campaign for PandaBot.

“We don’t want our Kickstarter backers， those who put their money on the line for us， to settle for a beta product，” the team wrote today on their blog and their Kickstarter page. The Panda Robotics Team decided to drop the project so it could make a better printer later on. They also cite interest in the project from distributors and academic institutions， which could indicate other support for the PandaBot.

A look at Kicktraq’s record of PandaBot’s funding shows a series of negative-bid days in the middle of the campaign， where backers actually removed their funding. The campaign would have easily reached its goal but for those days （and might have anyway）。 That doesn’t mean they’re necessarily related to the cancellation， though， and Kicktraq’s Adam Clark says it’s not uncommon for long-running projects to see negative days.

Panda Robotics is still targeting early 2013 as a release date for the PandaBot， and are offering backers a T-shirt and a $200 credit toward the printer when it becomes available. There’s no indication what the printer will cost when it finally arrives， but the original promise to funders was a machine at the $800 level. For would-be home printers who just can’t wait， the Solidoodle， and the Orca （in kit form） are available for around $1，000 or less.|

Kickstopper：经济实惠型3D打印机

不到一个月的时间到他们的Kickstarter的项目，以建立一个“友好，经济实惠的3-D打印机，”熊猫机器人已经取消了他们看似在赛道上竞选PandaBot。

“我们不希望我们的Kickstarter的支持者，这些人把他们的钱就行了，解决一个测试版的产品，”该研究小组写道今天在他们的博客和他们的Kickstarter页面。熊猫机器人团队决定放弃该项目可以以后做一个更好的打印机。他们还指出，对项目的兴趣从经销商和学术机构，这可能表明其他支持PandaBot。

一看PandaBot的资金Kicktraq的记录显示一系列的负面出价天的活动中，在那里的支持者实际删除其资金的中间。这场运动将很容易地达到其目标，但对于那些天（并有可能是这样）。这并不意味着他们必然涉及到取消，虽然和Kicktraq的亚当·克拉克说，这并不是什么稀罕事长时间运行的项目，看到负面的日子。

熊猫机器人仍然瞄准作为PandaBot的发布日期2013年年初，并提供一个支持者T恤和200美元的信用向打印机时可用。没有迹象显示什么，当它终于到达打印机将花费，但原来承诺的资助者是一台机器，在800美元的水平。对于想成为家用打印机谁不能等待，在Solidoodle和逆戟鲸（以套件形式），可用于1000美元左右或更低。
