WOOF3D
Goals
WOOF3D is advancing 3D printing through the design of new 3D printer technology and the design of parts that take advantage of the flexibility of additive manufacturing (3D printing). WOOF3D has designed and built desktop-size and large-scale 3D printers. WOOF3D is currently prototyping Big Blue, which is a large-scale 3D printer with a build space of 1.5 cubic meters.
Issues Involved or Addressed
WOOF3D is working to improve additive manufacturing techniques, exploring new applications for additive manufacturing, and developing a large-format 3-D printer.
