Owners of the awesome RepRap 3D printer or those of you that might be thinking of purchasing or building your very own RepRap 3D printer, might be interested in this new Pico all-metal hotend, designed specifically for the RepRap 3D printer. Watch the video after the jump to learn more about the Pico All-Metal Hotend project and see it in action.
“Pico defines precision. A premium, fully assembled, all-metal hot-end designed with quality as a top-tier goal. We are stepping out of sub-par reliability to introduce professional level standards into the hands of all the RepRap Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) printers.
Our journey began with the constant failures and shortcomings of previous hot-ends that we could no longer endure. The universal Pico offers solutions to hot-end meltdowns, leaks from the weakness of multiple components, afterthought taped thermistors, and threaded heater blocks. Our simple and sensible design allows for worry-free printing over the wide range of plastic materials up to 300° celsius.”
The Pico All-Metal Hotend for RepRap 3D printers is currently over on the Kickstarter website looking to raise enough pledges to make the jump from concept to production.
