Pro Version of Mote
During the development of 'Mote' we purchased a few different screens to see which was best combination of cost, size and function. We finally decided to go with a 5" [...]
Printing PLA with SingleLite Head
Last week we released a head with an additional blower fan attached to the side - there is a blog here to read about it. To make this work, we [...]
Single material head with no valves and a blower fan – SingleLite
We have developed a head that has an external blower fan which is directed over the nozzles for use with PLA and other low temp materials such as PCL. This [...]
How nozzles can improve 3D printing speed on FFF printers
Improving 3D-printing speed while achieving high levels of detail is what many design engineers strive for. But did you know that both a print’s speed and detail largely depend on [...]
Plug and play: how to set up your first 3D printer easily and quickly
A common misconception is that 3D printing is complicated and requires a specific skill set. Perhaps unsurprisingly, UK businesses often cite the skills gap as one of the main barriers [...]
What size 3D printer do I need for my rapid prototyping?
When it comes to 3D printing, you need to think about economies of scale. As our white paper explains, it isn’t just your output-to-cost ratio that matters, but also [...]
How to 3D print prototypes larger than your printer build volume
‘The bigger, the better’ is a phrase all too often used, but when it comes to 3D printers, you don't necessarily need to start big to think big. As our [...]
Scalable 3D printers: the key to expandable, faster and more accurate 3D printing
Content: A multiple 3D printer set-up, or stack, will improve the effectiveness of the design process and ultimately open-up all kinds of creativity for design engineers while remaining cost-effective. [...]
