Proprietary

  • Desktop metal - [1]
  • Robots + Mig Welders - [2]. Cost of MIG wire is $2/lb, so overall cost is reasonable. Imagine 3D metal printing for rebar forms combined with Clay Extrusion to make rebar reinforced Earthen Construction all with industrial robots.
  • The Formlabs Fuse 1 System - Informitive Demo + Interview By "Tested" Their webpage

Open Source

  • MTU early MIG-welder based printer - [3]
  • Part release mechanisms - [4]

Print and Sinter Filaments

  • You can print with regular plastic filament. [5]
  • You can print in clay and then bake. See Metal Clay Printer.
