This blog is to share the development and testing of FibreHead, a completely new approach to Personal Fabrication (PF). Using a 3(+) axis robot, the head will lay down a commingled thermoplastic and fibre yarn to form a complete part.
The main objectives of this new print head and method of fabrication are
- Quick build times
- Enabling hollow shapes/overhangs
- Stronger, more light weight components
Enjoy the story...
