Ion Core Technology releases Zinter Pro 3d printer. It looks sleek and high quality in aluminum and it has fully closed build chamber.





















From product page:

Zinter™...it's a printer with a Z axis
Zinter™ PRO is the breakthrough high accuracy, full featured desktop 3D printer from Ion Core Ltd and true out-the-box experience.
The Zinter™ Pro is fitted with two extruders. This means the ability to print with two materials or two colours as part of a single model. Zinter's enclosed environment and heated build platform ensure prints are shielded from external condition changes for perfect prints every time.
Superior build quality and aesthetics coupled with our leading software means the British made Zinter™ Pro is not only the most accurate and full featured desktop 3D printer on the market, but its the best looking too!

3D printing fumes are NOT good for you. Malcolm Langille made an enclosure for his Type A 3d printer with exhaust system to extract the fumes outside of his house.
I wonder how the temperature change and build surface cooling due to strong air movement affects the 3d print quality.

There are more and more DIY projects for enclosures or heat chambers upgrades for various 3d printers. Here is one for Velleman K8200.

This looks cool. Maybe I'll find a laser cutter (which is not the easiest task in rural Croatia) in the future and try to build it. I wonder what are the heat retention impacts on print quality ...











From project description:

A modified version of the Mendel90 which uses a lasercut melamine coated MDF frame (same fixing idea as the graber i3 frame). It allows an acrylic enclosure to be fitted. 

Main changes:
Frame re-designed, Z axis changed to laser cut parts.
Some plastic parts modified (not many)
Acrylic enclosure added
Wiring simplified - all motors have detachable plugs, endstops are push fit. this allows for a wiring loom to be used.
RAMPS electronics as standard with the Panelolu2 controller.

All the detail is available on our blog:

The assembly process in more detail in in this post:http://blog.think3dprint3d.com/2013/10/mendel90-lasercut-overview.html
The commissioning and calibration in outline is here:

The printer is designed from the start to take multiple bowden extruders as an alternative to a single direct drive extruder. Updates will follow!

Project by: http://www.thingiverse.com/Think3dPrint3d/designs

Enclosed frame GolemD DIY 3d printer from Poland. Looks interesting and simple relying on aluminum sheet box for rigidity. It could be adapted to use it with heated chamber.






Technical specifications from project ReRap wiki:

• Aluminum composite shell body - did you notice how a simple cardboard box is rigid while assembled - same principal
• closed chamber - after installing front shield
• 15x15x15cm working volume
• 25x35cm footprint - plus Z contraption
• yegahD extruder
• single head or multiple with bowden
• nema23 for Y and n17 for other axes by default
• 12mm glides - uniform, stainless, aluminum or just some cold forged pipe.
• slide linear bearings
• bended aluminum single piece Xcart
• only ca. 200g of printed parts
• enclosed PSU and electronics - single ATX and Sunbeam/Teensylu in this case
• plywood and molded versions to come
• parametric openSCAD design
• ultra easy to correctly assemble and cheap to build

Most of the build instructions are in Polish (but hey, that's why google translate exists)

Update (15.09.2013.)

While looking at the post about Polish 3d printing event I found picture of larger version of GolemD with integrated filament boxes (GolemD sppf)























































You should check the full gallery of the 3d printing event in Kielce with many printers and what looks like great atmosphere. Poland seems to have very vibrant, innovative and productive 3d printing community.
