Designing a cheap, high-quality 3D Printer


Designed in Solidworks, rendered in Keyshot

Features

  • H-bot belt drive (XY motors don't add weight to the extruder, they act at a distance)
  • Inductive sensor for automatic bed-leveling for each print
  • Heated bed (no more warped parts!)
  • Strong cooling fans to cool the extruder and the printed part
  • Sturdier, lighter construction of gantry enables much faster printing
  • Overall lighter, more compact, and still inexpensive
