VERASHAPE announced the imminent launch of a new 3D printer under its subsidiary VSHAPER, a 5-axis printer called the VSHAPER 5AX.
.
The development of a 5-axis 3D printer from VERASHAPE’s subsidiary is logical, as the parent company builds multi-axis CNC machines. The application of 5-axis technology to fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printing helps the VSHAPER 5AX stand apart from other desktop 3D printers on the market, which largely rely on Cartesian robotic technology.
.
Why 5-Axis? Additive manufacturing with 5-axis versus the conventional Cartesian robotics of most desktop 3D printers is an attempt to move past some limitations that engineers encountered when using Cartesian 3D printers to create objects from thermoplastic filaments. Part of the problem that VERSHAPE hopes to address with Cartesian desktop FFF 3D printers is one of having even material strength post-filament deposition. Engineers looking to prototype […]
