<ol>
<li><b>E3D Titan Aero Extruder</b>. One of the leading industry standards, the <a href="https://e3d-online.com/titan-aero">Titan Aero is a recognized name. We add a volcano heater block for faster printing, and use 3 mm filament for better extrusion using flexible filaments. </a> </li>
<li><b>Powered by FreeCAD</b> - give extra power to your D3D Pro by modifying its parts. We provide full part libraries for the entire design in FreeCAD, the premiere open source CAD package. You can modify parts, and print new versions readily. And - we can teach you a streamlined FreeCAD workflow in a one hour webinar.</li>
<li><b>Fast, Insulated Heat Bed with PEI</b> - We offer an insulated heatbed that saves 30% in energy cost of bed heating for eco-friendly operation. The powerful bed uses a 450 nichrome heater element, operates at 120V, heats up in less time than it takes to heat up the extruder (about 1 minute). Continuous working temperature of the heat bed is 176C. The PEI surface provides excellent adhesion, and prints are easy to take off the bed once the bed cools.</li>
<li><b>Automatic Bed Leveling</b> - using an inductive height sensor, the D3D Pro does the bed leveling for you so that the first layer attaches firmly to the print bed. No need for an involved calibration procedure - just print without doing any adjustment and the printer probes the bed at 4 points to determine the level of the bed. All you need to do is to turn a knob on the control panel until the nozzle prints exactly on the surface.</li>
<li><b>Eco-Friendly</b> - our printer features the only insulated heat for 30% energy savings, as energy efficiency is important to us. We don't know of any other printer that uses an insulated heat bed..</li>
<li><b>Large Heater Block and Nozzles</b> - D3D Universal ships stock with the Volcano heater block and 1.2 nozzle for fast printing and stronger prints for prototyping and production. Also comes with 0.8 and 0.4 nozzles. We found that using 1.2 mm nozzles with 0.4 mm layer gives us excellent quality and strength and super-fast production rates.</li>
<li><b>Self-replicating</b> - print more parts and build more D3D Universal printers. The limit here is that you still have to use metal parts that you buy from the store - but you can make 1/3 of the unique parts with the printer itself.</li>
<li><b><a title="Distributive Enterprise" href="https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/Distributive_Enterprise">Distributive Enterprise</a></b>. Our goal is to shift the world from consumerism to a maker society. And we have a clear way for you to do this: we will buy printed parts for the 3D printer from you, so you effectively become our supplier! This is an education in itself - as you will need to learn specific quality control methods so that you can guarantee to us that your parts will work. Email us for more information. </li>
<li><b>OSE Lifetime Design Guarantee</b> - We pay attention to simplicity, desing-for-repair, design-for-disassembly, and robustness. We use a 100% open source design with full documentation in FreeCAD. We use common, off-the-shelf parts in our design You can improve D3D Universal with time by modifications or tool head additions - no specially-fabricated parts or exotic components are necessary. This means that YOU can decide how long you would like to continue using the machine, where ready replacement parts and our design-for-repair make this easy by using parts that you print, parts from a local hardware store, or from Amazon. Even if we ever go out of business, you will be able to use, maintain, and upgrade your machine.</li>
<li><b><a class="mw-redirect" title="Universal Axis" href="https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/Universal_Axis">Universal Axis</a></b> belt-driven design. CNC motion system for modification and scalability. Can be scaled up 100x in size and 2000x in torque-handling ability by upsizing from 8 mm prcision motion rods up to 3 inch shaft.</li>
<li><b>Innovative Belt-Driven Z axis</b> allows for fast Z motion (such as with plotter function) and makes it impossible for a crash into the bed to destroy the print surface.</li>
<li>Uses the <a title="Universal Controller" href="https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/Universal_Controller">Universal Controller</a>, which can be scaled up to power much larger machines with the ready addition of external stepper motor drivers.</li>
<li>LCD screen for display information - keep track of print time and extruder temperature, print speed, and adjust parameters directly on the printer.</li>
<li><b>Marlin Inside</b> - uses the open source and most widely used firmware in the world - Marlin, with a great support community and decent documentation</li>
<li><b>Powered by RAMPS</b> - uses the most common 3D printer controller in the world, which is open source so you will always be able to find a replacement or make one yourself</li>
<li><b>Safe Design</b> - uses an on-board GFCI protector to eliminate the risk of severe electric shock</li>
<li><b>Product Ecology</b> - The D3D Universal is part of a larger product ecology of machines with interchangeable parts. It can make parts for other machines.</li>
<li><b>Bootstrapping to the Open Source Microfactory</b> - As part of the OSE product ecology - we allow for easy bootstrapping. D3D Universal can be used to make all the 3D printed parts for our dedicated production printer, the D3D Pro. It can also be used to make all the parts for our CNC Torch Table.</li>
<li><b>OSHWA Certification</b> - we are applying for the Open Source Hardware Association certification as an official artifact of open hardware to be shared with the world.</li>
<li><b>Flexible Bed</b> - a removable magnetic spring steel sheet with Buildtak surface is used for easy print removal. Prints stick well to a Buildtak sheet without needing a heated bed.</li>

<ol>
<li><b>Universal Gearless Extruder</b>. Our unique design works well with both 1.75 and 3 mm filament, and its ClogFree exposed filament path allows for clogs to be cleared in seconds. No other 3D printer that we know of uses 3 mm filament without using a geardown, and we also know of no other extruder that accepts both 1.75 mm and 3 mm filament without any modification.</li>
<li><b>Interchangeable Tool Heads</b>. You can attach other toolheads simply by removing one bolt. D3D Universal ships with a spring-loaded pen plotter attachment with automatic bed leveling probe so you can print designs on flat substrates such as paper, plywood, metal, cardboard, plastic, or t-shirts. You can attach any pen or marker. We plan on releasing a vinyl cutter, CNC mill/drill attachment, and laser cutter head in February, 2020.</li>
<li><b>Powered by FreeCAD</b> - give extra power to D3D Universal by modifying its parts. We provide full part libraries for the entire design in FreeCAD, the premiere open source CAD package. You can modify parts, and print new versions readily. And - we can teach you a streamlined FreeCAD workflow in a one hour webinar.</li>
<li><b>Flexible Build Plate</b> - with magnetic attachment for quick release of printed parts</li>

No need for an involved calibration procedure - just print without doing any adjustment and the printer probes the bed at 4 points to determine the level of the bed. All you need to do is to turn a knob on the control panel until the nozzle prints exactly on the surface.</li>
<li><b>Eco-Friendly</b> - our printer uses 67W, orabout 1/3 the energy of typical printers. This may not sound like a lot, but if you are in Germany with 33 cent electricity rates and you are running a print farm, that is $400 electricity costs saved per printer per year!</li>
<li><b>Large Heater Block and Nozzles</b> - D3D Universal ships stock with the Volcano heater block and 1.2 nozzle for fast printing and stronger prints for prototyping and production.
