An acrylic laser cutting and engraving machine is a powerful tool for creating high-precision designs in acrylic materials. These machines use a high-powered laser to cut and engrave designs onto acrylic sheets, resulting in intricate and detailed finished products. Acrylic is a popular material for laser cutting and engraving due to its versatility, durability, and transparency. With a laser cutting and engraving machine, users can create a variety of products, including signage, jewelry, awards, and decorative items. These machines typically offer a range of settings to adjust the laser’s power and speed, allowing for precise control over the cutting and engraving process.

Bambu Lab builds state-of-the-art desktop 3D printers that break the barriers between the digital and physical worlds.

IIIs for VIPs is an SIG collaborating with our supervisor Dr. Joseph Chan. It aims to provide a space where students can create inventions which help improve the daily lives of visually impaired persons (VIPs). We welcome students from engineering, medicine and interested students from other faculties.

Our SIG will support our members in finishing their projects until it becomes available for public use. Any project with the purpose of improving the activities of daily living for VIPs are welcome.

“There’s no getting around it, the Raise3D’s flagship is gigantic. It’s massive. It’s humongous”

“Everything on this printer has the tag “professional” written over it. The build quality is excellent. Everything is sturdy, nicely designed, the Z-axis rods alone are hefty sticks of industrial grade metal.”

“Raise3D Pro Plus combines a great workflow with large capacity FDM 3D printing.”

Year after year, Raise3D continues to lead the category in award-winning Large Format 3D Printers. Now with the introduction of the Pro2 Series many manufacturers, engineers, and industry professionals have integrated this large volume production for the fraction of the price of other professional grade systems. Learn More about the highlighted features from All3DP’s 2019 review that make this printer a top choice.

The Ender 3 is a basic, budget 3D printer aimed at hobbyists and beginners. It set the tone for many entry-level 3D printers, and its design quickly became popular amongst several 3D printer users.

The Ender 3 Pro carries over the same design, albeit with some minor improvements in features. In contrast, the Ender 3 V2 got a clean look and a great set of features which you can still see in the latest generation of Ender 3’s.

Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing is an industrial 3D printing process used to create concept models, cosmetic prototypes, and complex parts with intricate geometries in as fast as 1 day. It uses a thermoset liquid, not a thermoplastic, which is UV-cured in layers to form final parts. When SLA resins are exposed to certain wavelengths of light, short molecular chains join together, polymerizing monomers and oligomers into solidified rigid or flexible geometries.
