A desktop CNC redefining who gets to create

MIDDLETOWN, Del., Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Makera is set to launch the Makera Z1 Desktop CNC Machine on Kickstarter this October 28 at 11 AM ET / 8 AM PT / 4 PM CET / 2 AM +1 AEDT, bringing compact, high-precision manufacturing to makers, educators, and small businesses. With only 1 day left until launch—exciting offers await: secure a VIP-Only Price of $799 with a $39 deposit (MSRP $1,199; deposit is 100% refundable if you change your mind, and the deposit purchase window closes at launch time). Plus, early backers can claim a 24-Hour Launch Giveaway — a FREE set of 5 CNC bits, exclusively for those who back the campaign in its first day. In an era when fabrication power has grown centralized and costly, the Makera Z1 delivers a disruptive alternative: professional-level machining capability packed into a desk-friendly, space-efficient design.

Makera’s CEO Qiuxi Zhang explained that the company’s goal with Makera Z1 was “to strip away the fear factor” that has long surrounded CNC technology. “By combining industrial accuracy with a plug-and-play experience, we’re opening manufacturing to classrooms, studios and homes  worldwide,” he said.

Compact Footprint, Industrial Precision

Barely larger than a coffee machine, the Makera Z1 integrates hardware features once confined to full-scale workshops:

• 0.02 mm accuracy for prototype validation and precision component fabrication
• 4-axis machining for complex engraving, jewellery, instrument and robotics parts
• Smart auto-levelling and one-click tool calibration, flattening the learning curve

The Makera Z1 can be deployed instantly in classrooms, home studios or co-making spaces, without the need for a dedicated lab, costly maintenance or specialist operator.

From Factory Floor to Home Garage

CNC machining has long been synonymous with noise, heavy equipment and complex upkeep.
The Makera Z1 overturns that perception. Its one-piece die-cast frame and All-New AeroDust™ Collection System  allow a “mini-factory” to be set up in minutes, whether in a city apartment, a rural craft workshop or a hackathon venue.
Lightweight and quiet, it turns manufacturing into an everyday capability, not a specialist privilege.

Software and Community: Closing the Knowledge Gap

Makera pairs the Makera Z1 with its Makera Studio software and the online platform Makerables, designed to remove the intimidation barrier surrounding CNC use.

Makera Studio and the Makerables platform simplify the entire workflow. The Intelligent Machining Wizard handles toolpath generation automatically. AI modelling turns images into 3D designs in seconds, while an open online community connects makers to exchange ideas, remix projects and build together.

This combination of intuitive software and peer learning gives CNC machining the same accessibility once associated only with 3D printing, while enabling far greater material and functional freedom.

Democratising Fabrication: From Education to Entrepreneurship

Across Europe and North America, reskilling and reshoring have become defining themes in the future of work. As industries seek to rebuild local capability and schools race to teach new technical literacy, a new generation of creative infrastructure is taking shape. Within this landscape, the Makera Z1 stands out not simply as a product, but as enabling infrastructure for a distributed, creator-driven economy.

The Makera Z1 introduces hands-on digital manufacturing into environments that were once excluded from such access:

• Schools and universities can now teach real material fabrication rather than relying on simulations or theory alone;
• Design studios can iterate prototypes and produce small-batch parts directly on-site, cutting both time and outsourcing costs;
• Community makerspaces gain a high-precision tool that fits within limited budgets and tight urban spaces;
• Independent and female creators can bypass heavy industrial hierarchies and claim full control over their production processes.

Rather than turning more people into hobbyists, the Makera Z1 equips them to become creators.

Pricing and Availability

With an entry price of US $899 (£700–£900), the Makera Z1 brings industrial-grade precision into the same price range as a mid-tier 3D printer. It marks a decisive shift in who can afford to own professional-level manufacturing power.

Crowdfunding launches on Kickstarter on 28 October 2025, signalling the start of what Makera calls a “new chapter in desktop fabrication”, one that places accessible, high-precision tools within reach of classrooms, workshops and independent creators worldwide.

A Decade in the Making

Ten years ago, precision manufacturing belonged to a closed world: an ecosystem of factories, laboratories and specialists. Innovation depended on access, and access came at a price.
Today, that exclusivity is fading. A tool that once demanded an entire facility now fits beside a laptop, inviting anyone to explore, to learn and to make.

In that shift lies something greater than affordability. The Makera Z1 embodies a quiet redistribution of manufacturing power — a move from centralised production to individual capability. It stands as both an educational catalyst and a declaration of creative independence.

Makera Z1: bringing manufacturing back to everyone.

• The only cosmetics company chosen by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources for the “AI Factory” project
• Enables agile, small-batch, multi-product production to meet diverse client needs in real time

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Kolmar Korea announced that it has been selected as the sole cosmetics company to lead a government-funded AI Factory Alliance project organized by South Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources (MOTIR). Through this initiative, the company aims to move beyond smart factory automation toward AI-driven manufacturing autonomy, enhancing the global competitiveness of the K-beauty industry.

Under the project, Kolmar Korea will develop an AI autonomous manufacturing system that integrates all cosmetic production processes—from planning and formulation to quality control, filling, and packaging. Unlike traditional smart factories, which operate based on pre-set human inputs, AI factories use artificial intelligence to analyze data in real time and autonomously optimize production operations.

The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources (MOTIR) is South Korea’s central government agency overseeing industrial technology, R&D, commerce, and trade. Under its national vision of becoming the “World’s Leading Manufacturing Power by 2030,” the ministry launched the AI Factory M.AX (AI Transformation) Alliance, selecting leading companies from each sector to drive AI innovation in manufacturing. Kolmar Korea was chosen as the sole cosmetics company to lead the initiative, recognized for its technological excellence and manufacturing capabilities that have positioned it at the forefront of the K-beauty industry.

Kolmar Korea plans to modularize each manufacturing stage and apply advanced AI models to achieve over 95% process accuracy, one of the highest standards in the industry. This will significantly reduce rework caused by defects and maximize production efficiency. The transition to an AI factory will also enable high-mix, low-volume production, allowing rapid response to diverse customer demands.

The project will run for four years and four months, from September 2025 to December 2029. As the lead company in the Bio Division of the AI Factory Alliance, Kolmar Korea will spearhead the AI Transformation (AX) of the cosmetics manufacturing sector. Key initiatives include:

• Building an integrated data platform that connects all cosmetic production processes
• Developing autonomous process-control AI models to enhance product quality and precision

With the global cosmetics market increasingly emphasizing personalization and speed, AI-driven manufacturing has become essential to sustaining K-beauty’s global leadership. Many production processes in the industry still rely heavily on manual labor, especially for customized product designs and packaging. Kolmar Korea intends to share best practices from its AI Factory implementation to accelerate digital innovation across Korea’s cosmetic manufacturing ecosystem.

Kolmar Korea has already laid the groundwork for AI-based manufacturing through its smart factory system, established in 2019, which reduced defect rates by 42%. The new AI Factory will build on that success, creating a next-generation manufacturing system optimized for flexible, small-batch production.

A Kolmar Korea official stated, “Being selected as the only cosmetics company for the government’s AI Factory project recognizes our technological leadership in AI-driven manufacturing. We will leverage our autonomous AI systems to advance Korea’s cosmetic manufacturing standards and strengthen K-beauty’s global competitiveness.”

Kolmar Korea operates manufacturing bases in Korea, the United States, Canada, and China, and plans to roll out the new AI systems across all global production sites. The company also intends to expand the application of AI Factory technology to other Kolmar Group affiliates, including Kolmar BNH (health supplements), HK inno.N (pharmaceuticals), and Yonwoo (cosmetic packaging).
