FDM (fused deposition modeling) 3D printers, better known as filament 3D printers, come in a wide range of models, at a wide range of prices, with many different features. Whether you're new to 3D ...

Turn your 3D printer in an automation hub.

If you frequently use a 3D printer for your projects then you may experience issues calculating the material weight and length usage. If so, then you might be interested in this project using Arduino.

Ordinarily, when using an off-the-shelf 3D printer, it's quite difficult to print a single object that incorporates multiple materials. An experimental new system could make it easier, though, by ...

It seems a simple enough concept: as a 3D printer consumes filament, the spool becomes lighter. If you weighed an empty spool, and subtracted that from the weight of the in-use spool, you’d know how ...

3D printing enthusiasts interested being able to monitor just how much 3D printing filament they have left on their spools. Might be interested in an new Arduino project that allows you to easily see ...

Over time 3D printing filament can degrade due to contact with the moisture in the air so keeping it sealed in air air containers is paramount, especially for more expensive 3D printing filament.

SHENZHEN, GUANGDONG, CHINA, January 26, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Additive technologies have revolutionized modern ...

3D printers require a lot of support. They need gadgets and tools and of course, consumables. If you are using a fused deposition type of printer, the type that uses spools of filament, then there are ...
