The MadeIn3D contest being currently under way, and as the originality and complexity of your creations would be the biggest factors that will determine people’s votes and thus jury’s choice for the winner, we highly recommend the participants to use the power of the 3D printing to its maximum: mobile/moving parts (see below) !!
Robot articulations:
As some of you may know already, the 3D printing in polymer/resin powder container allows to reproduce moving parts on a single 3D printing process (free articulations of a robot, sliding parts, balls in a bearing...). Here you will find other examples with pictures. The scale of the pen and the fingers show you the type of accuracy you can achieve...
Key holder (chain & inclusion):
Artistic moving gearbox:
Now remember: you only have few days left until March 3rd to post your 3D model !!!
Good luck!
