The Proforge 4 is the latest FDM 3D printer from Makertech, which, like its predecessors, was also funded via Kickstarter. The first models of this printer should be delivered in October 2023. The printer is available in three versions: as the Proforge 4 Tool Changer 3D Printer Kit (3D printer alone), the Proforge 4 Max Tool Changer 3D Printer Kit (3D printer with housing, touchscreen and calibration camera), or the Proforge 4 Ultra Tool Changer 3D Printer Kit . Compared to the Max bundle, the latter bundle also includes Orbiter filament sensors, an Oldham coupling set, additional nozzles and an additional flex plate.
