We’re far beyond the heyday of the RepRap project, and the Hackaday tip line isn’t seeing multiple Kickstarters for 3D printers every week. In a way, this is a bit of a loss. The rapid evolution of ...
By the power of interchangeable nozzles, the Filabot can produce filament that’s 3mm or 1.75mm, depending on your needs. In addition to rejected 3D prints, the Filabot recycles just about any kind of ...
Filament 3D printing, also known as FDM (fused deposition modeling) or material extrusion, involves melting filament which is ...
Compact, inexpensive 3D printers typically utilize a process known as fused filament fabrication (FFF). This involves heating a plastic filament to its melting point, then extruding it through a ...
The world of 3D printing is constantly evolving, and with the increasing focus on sustainability, innovative solutions like the Artme3D MK2 3D print recycler and filament maker are taking center stage ...
Those of you that already own a 3D printer or have access to one will already have experienced the mounting costs of purchasing the 3D printing filament required to create and develop your designs and ...
The Keene Family of Cos. has purchased Village Plastics Co., a maker of 3D filament that had been facing closure, and changed the name to Keene Village Plastics. Terms of the deal, which was completed ...
Color gradient filament is fun stuff to play with. It lets you make 3D prints that slowly fade from one color to another along the Z-axis. [David Gozzard] wanted to do some printing with this effect, ...
