CNC milling machines: automation for precision A CNC milling machine is a computer-controlled machine tool that performs milling operations on materials such as metal, wood or plastic. Unlike manual milling machines, which require constant human intervention, CNC milling machines automate the process, reducing the risk of error and increasing productivity. The components of a CNC […]

Laser Cutters
Laser cutters: precision and efficiency Laser cutting is an advanced technology that uses a high-powered laser beam to cut and engrave various materials. Laser cutters are distinguished by their ability to produce clean, repeatable cuts, often down to microscopic level, which considerably improves the quality of finished products. What makes up a laser cutter? A […]
Resin 3D printer
How a resin 3D printer works Resin 3D printers represent a significant advance in the field of object manufacturing. Unlike FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printers, which use plastic filaments, resin printers employ light-sensitive liquid resins to create three-dimensional objects. This technology, also known as stereolithography (SLA), produces prints of remarkable precision and surface quality. […]
A water cooled V6 hotend
A professional-grade water-cooled V6 hotend A new hotend is on the way ! I’m looking at ordering parts for a water cooled V6 hotend thread-mounted heatsink, it’s been tested and works great. But the cost per part is high if ordered in a small batch. So 3D ETPLUS, who uses this heatsink on Monster Kossel […]
Un hotend V6 raffreddato ad acqua
Hotend V6 professionale raffreddato ad acqua Un nuovo hotend è in arrivo! Siamo in fase di ordine dei pezzi per realizzare un hotend V6 con heatsink thread-mounted raffreddato ad acqua. I test hanno evidenziato un funzionamento eccellente. 3D ETPLUS utilizzerà questo heatsink nella stampante Monster Kossel e, per raggiungere un prezzo di vendita più basso […]
Un hotend V6 raffreddato ad acqua di qualità professionale
È in arrivo un nuovo hotend! Sto cercando di ordinare i componenti per un hotend V6 raffreddato ad acqua con montaggio a vite; il concetto è stato testato e funziona molto bene. Ma il costo per pezzo è elevato se ordinato in piccoli lotti. Ecco perché 3D ETPLUS, che utilizza questo dissipatore sulle stampanti Monster […]
Des impressions utiles mais complexes
Lorsque l’on demande s’il est possible d’imprimer des firmes compliquées, en matériaux un peu exotiques, cela demande réflection et des tests. Mais en général ça fini par donner quelque chose d’utilisable. Des chaussures orthopédiques à imprimer en Polypropylène (PP), sans supports ou de structures internes? Le mieux est une imprimante à tapis roulant. L’intérieur est […]
Complex printing requests
When a request comes in to print complicated shapes, with less common materials, one needs to reflect and test. But in general it yields usable results. Orthopedic shoes to be printed in Polypropylene (PP), without internal supports or structures? The best option is a belt printer. The inside is support- and infill-free, and the outside […]
Richieste complesse di stampa
Quando ci vengono richieste stampe di forme complesse in materiali non comuni, è necessaria un’attenta progettazione e qualche test ma generalmente i risultati sono buoni. Scarpe ortopediche in Polipropilene (PP) senza supporti o strutture interne? L’opzione migliore è una stampante 3D belt. L’interno viene stampato senza infill e senza supporti, mentre all’esterno la supportazione è […]
How a 3D printer works
How does a 3D printer work? Since their creation in the mid-80s, 3D printers keep on evolving. Multiple technologies have appeared. So how does a 3D printer work? To understand how a consumer-grade 3D printer works, we’ll focus on one of the most common types availble. Namely, the printers using molten filament, FDM (Fused Deposition […]
