3D Printing Kiosk
We believe everyone should have access to 3D printing technology. So one of the Projects we're working on is building an outdoor 3D printing Kiosk that's available to the public. This page will contain our documentation for the Outdoor Public 3D Printing Kiosk. The Kiosk will be licensed as Open Source hardware under the OSHWA Certification. Eventually, we hope that this machine evolves to a point where anyone can walk up to it, and deposit plastic bottles and recycled plastic in exchange for 3D Printing credits at the Kiosk. This means that people will be able to take their old prints and deposit them for credits towards a new print.
Anyone can walk up to it and select a pre-defined object. The machine distributes the object to the locker, via a conveyor belt:
When finished, they can open their locker, either with a texted pin number or a card:
