Open Source Prior Art
Toolheads
Multiple toolheads for a given machine are a common idea found in:
- Snapmaker
- E3D's current work on the automatic tool changer - but this is only for exchanging print heads.
Axes
- This work is based on the D3D Simple - modifying for quick attachment of multiple heads.
- D3D Simple is based on the Universal Axis
- The Universal Axis is a modular, scalable derivative of the Prusa i3 printer X axis. Instead of using a dedicated design for an X axis, why not generalize the design to make it work for X, Y, and Z - and make it Intensively Scalable and Extensively Scalable at the same time?
Other Prior Art
Axes
This refers to other ways that people do a linear axis motion system. A common way is using lead screws.
