Company Description

The #1 injury caused by active 3D printers are burns. The R3 Printer features Active Overheat Prevention, a proprietary system that eliminates the risk of getting burned. If a print job is overheating, the R3 printer senses it and immediately pauses, doing away with human intervention. An off-the-shelf unmonitored assembly is compared to our heat monitoring test rig. Both testing rigs start at room temperature (green aura) and rapidly heat (red). After the Active Overheat Prevention system detects overheating, the Active Overheat Prevention test rig (right) shuts down and returns apparatus returns to room temperature. The Active Overheat Prevention senses overheating and initializes, letting the printer cool before continuing onward. The R3 Printer is 90% faster than contemporary 3D printers. Working with aerospace engineers, we redesigned key printer components from the ground up, resulting in an 84% weight reduction and the discovery of other secret-sauce upgrades that further boost speed. The result is nearly doubled speeds. An off-the-shelf 3D printer assembly is paced against our R3 Printer Test rig. Our optimized hardware assembly travels significantly faster — and we’re still pushing for even greater speeds. The R3 Printer has a re-designed interior that utilizes the full internal volume of the chassis itself, leading to a 200% increase in build volume compared to current printers of the same chassis size.
