Everything you need to know about eco-friendly 3D printing, with Dinamitek
The 3D world is organic, did you know that?
It hasn't been long since we were fascinated by the incredible creation of models with 3D printing , but let's face it, we've all wondered what use 3D printing can have in the everyday life of an ordinary person.
The fields of application for 3D printing are numerous and constantly growing. Not only have we seen 3D prints in art galleries and on the sets of major theatrical performances , 3D prints are increasingly becoming a part of "normal" everyday life.
After reading about the advances in the medical field , thanks to the printing of prosthetics, news has arrived of the use of 3D printing in the food sector , but not for mass production like in industry or canteens, but rather used in a gourmet kitchen serving a Michelin-starred chef. The idea that it could be possible to print some components of musical instruments is captivating.
The field of application that most excites me is the construction one : large printers with concrete extruders that print the architectural elements of a new building.
This possibility, considered insufficient by some very ambitious people, has led to the release of the first 3D printer capable of printing an entire house.
Haven't you noticed the difference? The former print the components in the factory, which are then transported to the construction site and assembled, while the latter is placed on site and directly prints the entire house out of concrete . The house will be complete with fixtures and systems, and the company guarantees it was built to last 150 years.
Why am I so excited about the 3D printed concrete house?
Because it costs little, is made with low environmental impact, solves housing problems in a short time – the house can be printed in 24 hours – and challenges the world of construction as we know it today .
If you're thinking this is a new way to eliminate jobs, you're wrong, because human intervention is necessary to complete the work. Instead, think about the safety of the workers, who are no longer forced to move on unsafe scaffolding.
As environmental awareness is making people increasingly aware and proactive in seeking effective solutions, it's likely a 3D printer for homes that extrudes green materials will soon be developed.
For printers for educational and home use, the eco-friendly solution has already arrived: the printer that extrudes PLA (polylactic acid) simply creates a plant-based, biodegradable, and recompostable filament . When you decide to have a 3D printer at home, which is very useful for supporting students' studies as well as for prototyping your projects, it's important to keep this distinctive feature in mind. Avoid printers that print ABS plastic and choose printers that use eco-friendly PLA.
