The new Lumifold TB
An innovative resin-based 3D printer that is portable!
The new LumiFold is a revolutionary, portable resin-based 3D printer. It fits in a case and can create detailed 3D parts from a wide range of materials.
There are several scenarios for a portable 3D printer: A teacher can carry a 3D printer in his suitcase and print 3D models during class; doctors can make 3D-printed replicas of anatomical parts for colleagues to prepare for a complex surgery; live presentations for jewellery/fashion companies where it is possible to go to the presentation with the 3D printer and create prototypes together with the customer.
In developing countries and distressed areas, a portable device capable of 3D printing with great precision can not only be helpful, but a radical advance in dental and medical care.
A tablet (iPad Mini) is inserted under the resin container covered with a thin, transparent non-stick film. A proprietary app cuts and processes the 3D file that the user wants. Once the file is ready, just click Start": The New LumiFold, connected to the iPad via Bluetooth, moves up each time a layer is cured, thanks to the light emitted by the screen itself.
