We really like
3D printers here at evertiq, but on several occasions we have stated that it
wont really - really - take off, until we can print ready to use electronics in
multi-material. Now, we're one step closer.
Voxel8, creator of the world’s first multi-material 3D electronics printer and
backed by Braemar Energy Ventures, has released the Voxel8 Developer’s Kit.
The Voxel8 Developer’s Kit will include the desktop 3D electronics printer,
conductive ink cartridges, PLA filament, modeling software and software
support. Voxel8’s desktop 3D electronics printer features dual material
capabilities by combining a Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) printhead with a
conductive silver ink printhead.
To strengthen this effort, Voxel8 is collaborating with Autodesk on Project
Wire, a Spark powered design tool for 3D printed electronics. Project Wire is a
design tool under active development at Autodesk that provides electronics and
3D printing enthusiasts with the ability to place components and route 3D
wires.
