On a cold, winter day in Chicago, we were just setting up as a prototype plastic CNC machining center. It was muddy, and people were walking around it to see what we were doing. We started making 3D parts of different shapes and sizes using a high-end 3D printer capable of printing plastic which is the main material used in this project
The machine has been designed by two engineers who work at a university in Chicago. This machine is not meant for mass production but rather as an educational tool for students to learn about how 3D printers work and how to use them
It can also be used by anyone who wants to create their own prototypes or even commercial products.
