Affordable 3D Printing

3D Printers, FDM Prototyping, 3D Models | Dimension Printers Bring Performance Prototyping In-House The Dimension 1200es features the largest build envelope of any Stratasys Design Series performance 3D printer. Running on Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Technology, it prints in nine colors of real ABSplus thermoplastic. This 3D printer lets you choose fine resolution or faster printing, with layer thicknesses of 0.254 mm (0.010 in.) or 0.33 mm (0.013 in.).

Wiki RepRap is humanity's first general-purpose self-replicating manufacturing machine. RepRap takes the form of a free desktop 3D printer capable of printing plastic objects. Since many parts of RepRap are made from plastic and RepRap prints those parts, RepRap self-replicates by making a kit of itself - a kit that anyone can assemble given time and materials. It also means that - if you've got a RepRap - you can print lots of useful stuff, and you can print another RepRap for a friend... RepRap is about making self-replicating machines, and making them freely available for the benefit of everyone. We are using 3D printing to do this, but if you have other technologies that can copy themselves and that can be made freely available to all, then this is the place for you too. Reprap.org is a community project, which means you are welcome to edit most pages on this site, or better yet, create new pages of your own. RepRap was voted the most significant 3D-printed object in 2017.

DIY Inkjet Printer This quarter at the UW a team of our students (Patrick Hannan, Jared Knutzen, Nicholas C Lewis, Joy Markham) produced some documentation on the development of a DIY inkjet printer. This was partly in response to the fact that there are no DIY inkjet kits available. There was a kit available from Parallax however it is no longer made and the main book that was written to go with it is now out of print. The goal of this project was to develop a low cost, open source inkjet printer utilizing standard inkjet technology, for personal use. The prototype design used a carriage assembly constructed from steel rods that were assembled using connectors that can be printed on an FDM machine. The design resulted in a working prototype that fulfills all of the design constraints. Areas where future work should be focused include making molds and casting printable parts to bring down the overall cost, developing host- side software, and optimizing the speed.

3D Printers & 3D Production Systems | Stratasys Products The Stratasys Idea Series levels the playing field by bringing professional 3D printers to individuals and small teams, accelerating creativity. Making the leap to world-class 3D printing at such a low cost is a revolution on its own. If you’ve ever taken a 3D prototype for a test spin before production, you already know its impact. Cut turnaround time and increase quality by building prototypes right under your own roof with Stratasys Design Series 3D printers. Rethink the factory from the floor up. The Stratasys Production Series is built to streamline manufacturing while maximizing your possibilities — handling the largest prototypes and accurate low-volume parts with agility. Because Stratasys believes the future of dentistry is digital, we’ve designed a 3D printing solution for almost every dental need. Learn about 3D Printing 3D printing is a way to create physical objects directly from digital files. Technologies
