The excitement around the new personal fabrication tool that is raising funds on Indiegogo is growing every day: the funding object has been pulverized in few days and the team is already working on adding new extended stretch goals. In this new episode of the “Meet The Funders” column, we host an interview with Marco…
An graet fabrication device is coming from Italy and is raising money on indiedgogo! Fabtotum is a multipurpose tool, the first Low Cost Desktop Personal Fabrication device that can operate a wide range of Computer controlled (CNC) manufacturing processes. Print, Cut, Mill, Scan, Manipulate. Rinse and repeat! A seamless interaction between the physical and the…
Here’s an update about the Grizzly 3Dprinting Rifle In an article on the Huffington post is reported that: The second version of the 3D-printed rifle, the Grizzly 2.0, was fired for the first time in a video released Friday, and this time it lasted 14 rounds before a crack formed. Even though the rifle is made…
This post follows a first one in which we presented some tips about how to tune printing (with 3Drag but also in general). Here you’ll find 5 more cool 3D prints to experiment with! Porcupine Vase This is an easy print difficulties, with reduced printing times, but it’s. It belongs to the category of…
Today the guys from openPicus published their video of them assembling the 3Drag 3D printer we just sent them in one day. It’s impressive to see the assembly from this perspective: we knew that we made a great job both with design and building choices and instructions but the feedback about the ease off assembly is really…
Can you spot that? 3Drag, was just featured on the BBC! See the video here: BBC News – Will people need a 3D printer?. 3D printing has been around for some time but now the technology is available for the same price as a top-end TV at shops. The BBC’s Technology Correspondent shows Breakfast presenter Susanna…
This new technology from MIT is highly promising: the ability to use 3d textures/continuous mixture of materials for 3D printing: 3D printing hardware is rapidly scaling up to output continuous mixtures of multiple materials at increasing resolution over ever larger print volumes. This poses an enormous computational challenge: large high-resolution prints comprise trillions of voxels…
Our fabulous 3Drag is on THRE3D, the first, supercomplete portal for 3dprinters comparison! Our dearest is dubbed as: “A 3D printer to print objects of maximum size of 20 x 20 x 20 cm using ABS or PLA 3mm wires. Extremely fast and precise even in prints at higher speeds. Compatible with all free software…
Hey! look at this amazing instructable for an a DIY high resolution Open Source 3D DLP printer! Why did we work on a 3D printer?Well as you all know the world needs more 3D printers, more platforms for creation, more freedom. More possible ways to show your epic awesomeness in creation. And most of all…
After countless hours of playing with 3Drag (now with a lower price!!) we finally selected 10 prints that you can use to explain what you can really make with your 3D printer. 3D printing is every day more often mentioned in the press: lots of stories, ranging from printing human tissues (thus saving lives) to creating…
NASA and Aerojet Rocketdyne recently finished testing a rocket engine injector made through additive manufacturing, or 3-D printing. This space technology demonstration may lead to more efficient manufacturing of rocket engines, saving American companies time and money. The tests were conducted at NASA’s Glenn Research Center in Cleveland. The series of tests demonstrated the ability…
See the video below! One of the methods that the researchers developed involves stacking droplets of liquid metal on top of each other, much like a stack of oranges at a supermarket. These droplets adhere to one another, but retain their shape rather than merging into a single, larger droplet. Another technique involves injecting liquid…
