Makermex

MakerMex started when co-founder Luis Arturo Pacheco, an architecture student at Univerisad de La Salle Bajio, began using RepRap printers to develop 3D prototypes for college projects with support from co-founder and brother-in-law Sam Weatherly. While incubating at the Paque CIEN, Luis met co-founder Juan Carlos Orozco, an engineer also experienc... ed in 3D printing and automation. The three went on to create MakerMex, the first 3D printer development and manufacturing company in Mexico. Juan Carlos is the head of our engineering and development team. With a Masters Degree from Stanford University, Juan Carlos has applied his extensive knowledge of Electrical Engineering, mechatronics and automation to development of the MM1 platform. Through his 20+ years with his company, ACELAB, the transition into his passion of 3D printing was seamless. Together, our team has a diverse knowledge of 3D printers from Makerbot, Ultimaker and multiple open-source platforms such as RepRap and Prusa. The knowledge our team gathered lead to the ground-up creation of the MM1 platform from completely in-house designed features and specifications. All of our production and development is hosted in our facilities in Leon, Mexico.Read More
