Requirements

  • A portable, high performance machine
  • Performance is defined as plug-and-play stability, and high print quality, in all materials
  • Uses high temperature, 3 mm extruder, opimized for both fast printing (E3D Volcano Nozzle) as well as flexible filaments (short and supported extrusion distance)
  • Easy to source parts
  • 3D printable frame that still allows for high stability
  • Stability of 3D printed frame may be assured via mini rebar plus concrete inside the pipes if needed
  • 8" bed for minimum viable product
  • extensible to 12" bed after 8" version is optimized
  • Includes a full Design Guide
  • Includes a FreeCAD workbench for design.
  • Has well-developed cable management
  • Has quick exchange toolheads via magnetic mount and complete unpluggability of print head using a single connector.

Control Requirements - Print Cluster

  • Eliminate the laptop from being needed by sending files to an SD card on the RAMPS. This is the most secure way to control a printer - by eliminating dependence on a USB connection.
  • Allow for monitoring of print job (video cam, progress)
  • Allow to abort jobs remotely in case of failure detection
  • Allow for remote control via the web (sales of products + integration with open source microfactory)

Value Proposition

  • Construction Set via universal Axis, D3D Workbench in FreeCAD, and a Design Guide.
  • Industrial applications by size of prints and any material
  • easy enclosure for semi-heated chamber

Details

  • Double Connector may be used with a 6 or 12-pair cable
  • Gauge 22 Wire Ampacity is 5A enclosed, so it is suitable. It is 2.5A with 4-6 cores.
  • DIY Cat5 splitter -[1]
