3D Printing is changing the world and accelerating inventions. Until now, there were only two types of 3D Printers: high resolution printers costing thousands of dollars, or low resolution ones costing under a thousand. A team from Delaware is about to change all that with their affordable high res DLP-SLA 3D printer: Draken. Draken has a few unique features different from the numerous other 3D printers being funded and out on market right now:
• Sturdy print bed with Teflon coating to dramatically reduce print bed clouding.
• Use of Commercial DLP 1080P projectors to eliminate laser flare and laser aging issues.
• Quiet printer with no noise
• Novel Passive Peel mechanism
• Support for 3rd party resins
• Cast-able and flexible resins at launch
With its touted 3.9” x 7.1” x 8.7” build area, minimum 37 micron XY resolution, low noise, and up to 1.8+ inches per hour print speed, Draken can print down to 10 microns on the Z axis. What does that mean? It means printing pillar features as fine as a strand of hair.
The Draken High Res DLP-SLA 3D Printer team understands not everyone can fund the Draken High Res DLP-SLA 3D Printer campaign, so they ask that those who cannot give monetarily help by spreading the word about Draken through social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram to invite friends to support or share Draken Kickstarter fundraiser. Like #3DFacture or #Draken3D in all posts.
