3D Printing - Startup Digest - Affordable Printers & Animation Studios - June 3rd - June 10th

Startup Digest

3D Printing

June 03, 2016

Hey you.

Hope things are well with you.

In this week's digest, we will be covering: Affordable 3D Printers, How Animation Studios use 3D Printers and a new company claiming to be the UBER of 3D Printing.

I just ordered In My Own Way by Alan Watts, so I'll be diving into that this weekend. I also watched Citzenfour (Edward Snowden Documentary) - It was excellent.

Anyway, I have a question for you: Why have you subscribed to this 3D Printing Digest and are you getting what you signed up for? If not, how can I help?

I would appreciate it if you could hit REPLY to this email and let me know your thoughts so I could get an idea of what your goals are.

Thanks again.
Until next time,
Dilanka

The Uber of 3D Printing?

Nick Hall - 3D Printing Industry

There's an Italian firm called IRA 3D that just launched a global 3D Print on Demand service called the Poetry Express -- they describe it as the "Uber of 3D Printing". Interesting project.

40 Affordable 3D Printers under $500

Robert Dehue - 3dprinting.com

People are still complaining about the price of 3D Printers. It has never been cheaper to buy a 3D Printer than right now. If you don't want to purchase any brand name printers, here's a good list of affordable 3D Printer kits that are under $500. You are welcome.

How an Animation studio uses 3D Printing

Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft - phys.org

A short piece on how an Animation studio uses 3D Printing. In order to produce the puppets facial expressions, LAIKA designs, models, animates and paints the faces in the computer, then uses color 3D printers to produce tens of thousands of slightly different facial expressions.   

'On-the-fly' 3-D print system prints what you design, as you design it

Cornell University - YouTube

Interesting. Cornell researchers have come up with an interactive prototyping system that prints what you are designing as you design it; the designer can pause anywhere in the process to test, measure and, if necessary, make changes that will be added to the physical model still in the printer.
