3D Printing. Open 3dp. Materials. Designed for Healthy Eating: Foodini - a 3D Food Printer by Natural Machines. April 9th: NEW ADDED FEATURE: built-in 3D scanner. Now included in Foodini! We are really excited to announce that Foodini will ship with built-in 3D scanner hardware. We’ve been working with our partners for quite some time to have this hardware installed in the first shipping units of Foodini, and today we can confirm that it will definitely be included. With a built-in 3D scanner, you can: Scan an object, then save the resulting digital shape and print it (using chocolate, for example).

The 3D scanner will have a resolution of 0.1mm. If you have already pledged for a Foodini via Kickstarter or purchased Foodini via other channels, your Foodini will automatically include this 3D scanner hardware – no action is necessary on your part. Full details can be found in update #2. Introduction Foodini is the first 3D food printer to print all types of real, fresh, nutritious foods, from savory to sweet.

Please check our updates tab for more information. We are Blue Eagle Labs and we are HUGE fans of 3D printers. For the past 6 months, we have been working on our rendition of the delta printer, the Kossel Clear. The Kossel Clear will be a popular, viable, and mainstream delta printer alternative for 3D printer fans.

ZEUS: The World's First ALL-IN-ONE 3D Printer / Copy Machine by AIO Robotics. Also seen in: Wouldn't it be great to buy a 3D printer, take it out of the box, plug it in, and be able to use it right away, the same way you would with any other piece of consumer electronics such as computers and TVs?

ZEUS: The World's First ALL-IN-ONE 3D Printer / Copy Machine by AIO Robotics

Just as 2D printers naturally evolved to incorporate more functions into one device, we set out to revolutionize the 3D printing industry to give makers a complete 3D printing experience with a multifunctional machine. Finally, you will now be able to scan, print, copy, and fax objects from one device at an affordable price. Phoenix 3D Printer by Ez3D. Missed the Kickstarter?

Here is a list of the updates new backers should read: At the San Mateo MakerFaire, virtually everyone we spoke to asked us this question. So what makes our printer different? It's the software. Our software makes 3D printing easier. The Z Axis Most traditional 3D printers use threaded rods to drive their Z axis up and down.

The Extruder Our extruder is designed to help prevent heat from traveling up the filament. A warranty. Yes, we have a one year on parts and labor. This spider house was printed using gray ABS and made up to look cool. We think the torture test above turned out very well, even when printed with the "low quality" profile!

Build your own Ceramic delta 3D printer

Their modified ceramics 3D printer offers possibilities to produce fine layers and new forms that traditional pottery techniques hardly can make. Inspired by Unfold's work, but also annoyed and frustrated by 3D Systems buying out Bits From Bytes and then stopping the production of the RapMan 3D printer, Jonathan Keep decided to develop his own replacement 3D printer. This is a delta style of 3D printer built specifically for printing with clay. My aim was to keep it simple so other artists, designers and potters could build similar machines. Jonathan's printer design is based on bootstrap delta style printer which is good for layering up the clay.

Gelatin Bio-Ink May Allow Printing Of Organs And Tissue - Health News

Credit: Fraunhofer IGB redOrbit Staff & Wire Reports – Your Universe Online German researchers have developed a new gelatin bio-ink that can be used by 3D printing technology to produce various tissue types, a breakthrough that brings the world one step closer to being able to print tissues and organs. Scientists have long been working to improve methods and procedures for artificially producing tissue.

The IGB researchers were able to chemically modify the gelling behavior of the gelatin to adapt the biological molecules for printing. The IGB research facility also prints synthetic raw materials that can serve as substitutes for the extracellular matrix, such as systems that cure to a hydrogel devoid of by-products, which can immediately be populated with genuine cells.
