Faced with the fight against the coronavirus COVID-19, great initiatives and solutions are emerging from solidarity and innovation, especially to alleviate the shortage of medical equipment and personal protective equipment. To make it easier to find and download files, we have compiled a collection of devices and designs that can be printed with any 3D FDM printer.

Faced with this emergency situation caused by the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, Copper3D, manufacturer of the PLActive filament, has shared the design of a mask, a basic protection equipment whose stock is currently very low, for printing on practically any printer. 3D FDM.

Due to the current exceptional situation and the challenge of containing the COVID-19 coronavirus, we have put in place various security measures in order to prioritize and guarantee the health of our equipment. The processing and dispatch of shipments will be carried out normally.

The fact that a 3D printer has "high resolution" among its specifications does not mean that all 3D printed parts will be accurate and precise. Understanding the meaning of accuracy, precision and tolerance is essential to achieve a good result in any 3D printing. Below we detail what each of these terms means in the context of 3D printing.

Sometimes, choosing the most suitable material for a given application is a complex decision that depends on a multitude of variables and requirements. To facilitate this selection, we have developed a new advanced search engine on our website, which allows filtering based on almost 40 properties.

Designing has never been so easy, thanks to the introduction of 3D printing technology. If you can imagine, you can create as you imagined. This technology has allowed significant progress and reduce costs in a multitude of sectors such as construction, automotive and medicine.

During September 10, 11 and 12, Filament2print was present at stand 202 at the international Mindtech fair, a benchmark in the industrial sector of the Iberian Pole, sharing a pavilion with other leading companies in the industrial sector both nationally and internationally, and which has received more than 21,000 visitors during the 3 days.

Medicine has evolved greatly and quickly, when performing certain generic operations but there are still risks in interventions where the patient has a problem that needs delicate surgery. Currently the previous problem is decreasing thanks to 3D printing

Since the RepRap and Open Source movement was born in 2005 with the appearance of Dr. Adrian Bowyer's 3D FDM printer, which could be built by itself almost entirely, this sector has evolved a lot to this day. In this article we will talk about 3D printers and components that were key at the time to achieve successful parts.

Technologically speaking, 3D printers are among the most advanced and futuristic devices that we currently have. As access to these equipments is becoming easier and cheaper, there are various areas and sectors that are betting on this technology.

The world of manufacturing prototypes in metal alloys and small series manufacturing has advanced a lot thanks to 3D printing technology. However, there are some traditional techniques that have not disappeared, but evolved.

The famous brand of 3D printers SLA, Formlabs, has revolutionized the world of 3D printing by launching its 3D resin printers, Form 3 and Form 3L, with an optimized manufacturing technology.
