BONE 3D delivers open-source swab training model for COVID-19 AM Industry

There is an ongoing need to continue COVID-19 tests around the world, to track how the virus is still spreading and to prevent more major outbreaks. As we learned this week, 3D printing not only has a role to play in the production of medical-grade swabs for COVID-19 diagnostics, but it can also help to train non-medical workers to administer the tests, so that they can be scaled up. Singapore-based Creatz3D recently unveiled a 3D printed manikin designed specifically for COVID-19 swab training, and now French company BONE 3D is also stepping up with its own testing model.

Turn a 3D printer into a powerful laser cutter with Endurance 10 watt+ lasers 3D Printer Hardware

Almost every 3D printer can be used as a laser cutter, as powerful as a CO2 engraving machine and as efficient as a fiber laser device. All that is possible today thanks to powerful diode lasers that first appeared on the market a few years back. Today, there are many powerful 405 / 445 / 808 nm laser diodes which enable laser cutting and laser engraving on almost any material, including wood, plywood, leather, plastic, anodized aluminum and even stainless steel. In addition, these laser diodes are tiny and thus make relatively small lasers that weight less than ½ pound.
