Robert Murray-Smith wants to experiment with a novel 3D printer kinematic system that drives a round bed through a friction interface — essentially a polar 3D printer, but without the backlash associated with gears. However, friction drives have a tendency to slip and so he will need closed-loop control of the system and that will […]
3D printers need to set their hot ends to a very specific temperatures suited to the filament material and keep them at those temperatures throughout the printing process. Most use PID (proportional-integral-derivative) control for that purpose, which modulates power according to an algorithm that prioritizes stability and prevents feedback oscillations. But what if you want […]
When creating videos, making smooth, level movements at a constant speed is often a very important requirement, as sudden changes can leave viewers uncomfortable. But rather than purchasing an expensive gimbal-stabilized rig or a commercial motorized camera platform, Instructables member dslrdiy decided to devise their own four-axis system using a repurposed 3D printer with the goal of being […]
Heavy duty coffee makers are good for, well, making coffee. On the other hand, if you were to look at the frame without the preconception of what it can do, you might notice that there is space on top where equipment could be attached, and space on the bottom with a built-in heating pad on […]
During Maker Faire Rome we announced and gave a preview of our new project called Arduino Materia 101, the 3d printer developed in collaboration with Sharebot. We are happy to announce that starting today the 3d printer is available for pre-order (30 days delivery time) from Arduino Store : Arduino Materia 101 Kit Version €570/USD727 Arduino […]
