Reflect-o-Lay, Reflective Filament for 3D Printers
The engineer Kai-Parthy has developed a new filament that has reflective properties thanks to the principles of the retro-reflection of light, as a quick example; Reflective vests.
The material as such is a semi-flexible grayish-colored polymer that combines tiny reflective Read More...
What is an STL?
The format of the STL file is normally used in 3D printing, this is basically a set of coordinates that make up a cloud of points that are joined by vertices forming a three-dimensional object. In the data included Read More...

What is the filling of a piece?
At the time of printing a piece we ask that question of what type of filling I have to put and how much percentage I have to add so that you have no Read More...

PLA Filament
Filament called lactic polyacid, or PLA, as it is generally known among users of 3D printers, is created from biodegradable or renewable resources such as corn starch. This material does not emit noxious gases, so it is used Read More...
How does a 3D printer work?
One of the most anticipated and spectacular innovations of recent years has undoubtedly been the emergence of 3D printers and their current incorporation into homes and businesses. Although it is not a product that everyone knows how to handle Read More...
