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 ...

Didyou know that 3D printing generates a lot of plastic waste? This mayseem odd at first, but every enthusiast knows the amount of plasticthat gets wasted before any successful printing is done.

We’ve seen a lot of homebrew filament extruders, but [Stefan] at CNC Kitchen shows off a commercial desktop filament extruder in his latest video, which you can see below. The 3DEVO extruder is pretty ...

Once you have a 3D printer able to build a few objects in a single color, the next logical upgrade is a dual extruder. A dual extruder allows for multiple color prints, and by adding a dissolvable ...

Last week, we took a first look at the dual-filament Ultimaker 3 printer. This week, we dive into one of the key features that provides the printer with its power and flexibility: its extruders.

TPE vs TPU: discover the key differences between these flexible filaments and find out which one is best for your 3D printing ...

Hugh Lyman, an 83-year-old retiree from Enumclaw, Washington, won The Desktop Factory Competition with his design for a low-cost, open-source machine capable of turning resin pellets into inexpensive ...

For all its transformative potential, the high costs of 3-D printing continue keeping it from achieving mass consumer adoption. Now a new open source device may change that with its ability to create ...

However, industrial 3D printing machines differ greatly from traditional desktop printers. Besides the format of the machines and the prints, one major difference can be found in the material that is ...

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We are 3devo! A Dutch startup, 3devo, part of the engineering company Detoteq, has developed a filament extruder for 3-D printing, called the Next 1.0, aimed at the “maker” ...
