New photos of 10 'green' 3D-printed houses in Shanghai, built in 24 hours. April 14, 2014 In a first, a Chinese company has advanced the science of 3D printing by printing 10 houses entirely out of recycled materials, in just under a day. Earlier this month after we posted "10 completely 3D printed houses appear in Shanghai, built under a day", some commentors are complaining that the 3D printed house looks strange and that isn't real 3D printing. We don't see what their problem is. The parts, such as frame, wall were printed separately. The parts dry quickly and can then be used to assemble to a complete house. This week the company behind the 3D-printed houses, Shanghai WinSun Decoration Design Engineering Co revealed more photos showing off the concept. 3D printed wall 3D printed frame An enormous 3D printer, measuring 32-meters long, 10-meters wide, and 6.6-meters high, was used to print each of the structural components of the houses.
WinSun said the team finished the design of the special printer several years ago. Thing-O-Matic - 3D Printers. Kapton SuperWide Tape 120mm x 22m A "SuperWide" roll of our classic Kapton tape! 120mm wide by 22 Meters long! It's all the great features of Kapton tape in an extra-wide roll that will cover build surfaces in a flash. It's the exact horizontal width of the MakerBot® Heater Board v1.1, so with just two cuts, you've got a fresh Kapton surface and you're back to printing. Easy! Great for heated applications, and insulating electrical joints and heating elements. It has tons of uses and is easy to clean up when you remove it.
