Black Friday sales officially start in two weeks on November 28, but you don’t have to wait to pick up a 3D printer at a bargain price.
The Elegoo Centauri Carbon is currently available for $279.99, down from its regular $413, directly from Elegoo. That’s a solid saving on a budget-friendly printer that still manages to deliver impressive speed, precision, and usability for the price.
The Centauri Carbon arrives fully assembled and ready to print right out of the box. Its automatic calibration system takes care of setup, while the CoreXY motion design allows it to reach speeds of up to 500 mm/s with 20,000 mm/s² acceleration. This means it can turn out projects quickly without loss of accuracy.
Today’s best 3D printer deal
A 32 mm³/s flow rate ensures it keeps up with more demanding prints, making it suitable for functional parts, models, or even more creative designs.
Elegoo has given the Centauri Carbon a sturdy die-cast aluminum frame to help reduce vibration and improve print consistency. The 256 x 256 x 256 mm build volume offers enough room for most hobbyist projects, and a built-in chamber camera lets you keep an eye on your prints in real time.
It supports a wide range of filament types, offering flexibility to experiment.
It’s worth noting that the Centauri Carbon only supports a single filament spool, although that’s entirely expected at this price.
At $279, the Elegoo Centauri Carbon is a good opportunity for anyone looking to get into 3D printing or upgrade from an older entry-level model before the main Black Friday rush begins.
In our review, we said it “impresses with build quality, speed, and accuracy.”
