3d printer model tips

Hi.

very synthetically:

1. It's a product you need for work and you have to put in the office?
if you use it in the house you can safely buy a printer without external shell like kentstrapper, itching, etc (they sell it both in kits to assemble and already assembled and with 600 euros something buy).
2. prints you have to do: size, quality, type of material. . .
Clearly that at lower prices you can find smaller useful sizes (but possibly you can overcome the problem by dissecting the object, by individually printing the parts and then putting them together), keep in mind that in a square plate the long and narrow pieces can be printed even diagonally.
you don't have to confuse quality with speed... 0.100 is a good definition and calculates that takes away a lot of extra time... for the speed do not make you get too excited by who writes 150-200 mm/s or even 300, because if you want a good result you have to go slowly (especially with some materials).
the materials are important to choose the machine, the pla print it practically all, but abs, nylon, rubber etc... it takes printers with extruders that go up to 250°c and with heated dishes at 90-110°.
3. types of "closed/open" printers. .
to make you better understand the difference, think about apple and android... machines like makerbot, zortrax (and also cube) etc, you "obligate" to buy their products and use mainly their software; Of course, if you can put a filament on the cube, not their brand, it's not that you come looking for the carabinieri... But it's not that easy... put that you want to print rubber on a machine that doesn't make you retouch the parameters... You have to stay behind it and it's not nice.. .

I said this, I have a craftbot and I don't feel bad... If you want to spend little time trying to print, you can also search for used or refurbished machines on the internet, maybe find top-end printers at an affordable price.

available for clarification.

Bye!
