It automatically supplies meals to your pet at preset times, by providing the daily dose of cat kibble. Having a pet involves big responsibilities, first of all granting them food; unfortunately, a hectic lifestyle and imposed workhours do not go hand-in-hand with the needs of our four-legged friends, and surely anyone living on their…
It is no longer a problem, nor it is expensive, to print big size items and terrain models: we showed you that by means of our new creation, the FDM 3D printer that our well-equipped readers will be able to create, thanks to the assembly kit. The machine is capable of manufacturing solid prints…
[bctt tweet=”New FDM (Fused deposition modeling) 3D printer capable to produce 40x40x40 cm (64,000 cm3) objects.” username=”OpenElectronics”] This printer has a building volume of 400 x 400 x 400 mm; it integrates all the functions of the 3Drag, including the “hackability”, that is typical of the Arduino-based controller. When we created our…

It comes from Burlington, Massachusetts, and actually has raised more than $45 million from famous investors like Google and BMW. As Desktop Metal gets closer and closer to launching a compact 3D printer that can print with metals, people (and super-rich corporations) are starting to get very excited about the Burlington-based startup. So much so, in fact,…
Converting 3D modeling files to STL can be problematic. Additionally, 3D printing often lays bare file errors such as nonmanifold issues, flipped vertices, holes in the mesh and intersecting objects. Meshes for 3D printing need to be watertight and manifold. A free cloud-based STL and 3MF file fixing is MakePrintable by Mixed Dimensions. MakePrintable is…
In a new interview with Google’s director of engineering, author and futurist Ray Kurzweil, has shared some of his most recent predictions for the future of technology with the New York Times. Here are his predictions: As the variety of materials available to print in 3D become more extensive and less expensive, both free open-source…
3D printing is being part of our lives and we’re probably getting used to the idea of doing it to innovate and improve our work, and why not, our daily existence. It is always worth to look at the reality and not at the illusion, but the data and the market are quite clear. They…
When the standard model is not enough, you can “stretch” the printer to print objects up to 400x200x200 millimeters. Here’s how to make the change. To print great objects, you need a great printer -and our 3Drag is great- but if you want to print three-dimensional objects that are oversize, then you need…
Microsoft Kinect for Xbox revealed itself as an excellent scanner, with which to acquire the shape of items. Let’s see how to use it along with ReconstructMe, that in its more recent versions allows the creation of models that are accurate and ready to use. The scan of solid objects, better known as 3D…
Ever dreamed of printing larger objects with your own Ultimaker 3D printer? This is the Z-Unlimited. With this amazingly simple add-on you convert your own trusty Ultimaker into a 3D printer with an unlimited extended print-area in height. Check the project on Kickstarter, 123% funded already and one month to gather more pledges! The Z-Unlimited…
