Creopop: Handmade 3D printer with a cold "seal"

Now 3D-printers are developing very actively, and almost every week there are new models of these devices. Large printers, small printers, expensive and cheap, portable and does "manual". All that - devices are used in the high temperature plastic.

Of course, the high temperatures - is the cost of energy, odor and potential burn hazard. The other day there was a device that, as far as we can judge, devoid of all these shortcomings. The device is called Creopop, and it represents the printer manual for the "cold press". Device works with a photopolymer, which quickly hardens when exposed to UV radiation (like dentists use).

The device already exists, the video with a demonstration of his work below. However, manufacturers are planning to launch a campaign on Indiegogo to raise funds to start mass production Creopop. It is understood that the price of device will not very high - 89 US dollars for the "contributors» Indiegogo.

Very interesting also that the developers with the unit and created a number of different types of "ink" -fotopolimerov. Colored, luminescent, magnetic, elastic and even aromatic "ink" - it's all there. Photopolymers can be very different, with different properties, and the developers have considered it.

Well, here's a video demonstrating the work devaysa:
