D3D Requirements

See also Talk:D3D_Requirements

• 1 day build time. Possible scenario:

• including 4 hours of instruction and 6 hours of build

• Social production requirement -/Fits Extreme Manufacturing model of extreme satisfaction of personal production. Build focuses on build experience, with supporting learning via excellent explainer videos. Tight scripts achieved via Script Team and Video Team.
• Economic requirement - goal of attaining DMD via its derivatives.
• OSE Label is documented
• Auto bed level
• OSHWA compliant, possibly Respects Your Freedom certified
• $500 in parts for single head
• Wireless to allow for freeing up computer

• Better done by SD card, with wireless upload of Gcode

• Rubber (Ninjaflex) print capable, without head exchange (critical for OSE gaskets, rubber washers and o-rings in low and high pressure hydraulics and pneumatics)
• Multiple print head addable, up to 4 for practical considerations

• For parellel printing, not Multiple Color 3D Printing

• Meets or exceeds reliability of Lulzbot (hours of maintenance free printing between any required fix)
• Addable clear enclosure
• Functions as an effective RepStrap for building future machines.
• XY-fixed build platform. Not negotiable for reasons of robust design
• Unheated build platform for low cost, with heated platform as an added module that can be retrofitted readily without compromising bed leveling mechanism.
• Self-harvesting for mass production part capacity - by having the head bump the parts produced a off the build platform
• Future: works with irregular-dimension filament?
• Product Ecology - works with open source filament from open source filament extruder
• Functional Logic and design rationale is fully documented
• conductive metal print capable for Cordless Tool Construction Set. This should be implementable today with conductive filament for basic connections.

Future Requirements

• Eventual versions build in manufacturing capacity - Technological Recursion
