aboutus
Our mission is to remove barriers. We are overcoming the limitations of small shop manufacturing by providing our users with small form factor prototyping and manufacturing equipment that is accessible, user friendly, and designed to outperform expectations on every level.
Driven By User Centered Design
Shopbotix was born out of a need for high quality tools and equipment that produce parts repeatably and reliably, tools that work together to meet the need at hand without redundancy and without compromise. We believe that the tools we use should never limit creativity, in fact, they should inspire it.
MICROfactory
We are building an entire ecosystem of small tools that have huge output potential. That doesn't mean much if they are not accessible, that's why we have focused on keeping price points low without ever sacrificing quality or user experience.
