3D Pens for Kids: How They Work & Creative Uses Guide

3D pen is the world's first pen with 3d printing capabilities, the use of PLA, and ABS plastic, 3D pens can be "written" on any surface, even directly in the air, it is very compact, and no computer or computer software support, as long as it is powered on, you can start creating.

Principle The 3D pen is based on 3D printing, extrusion of hot molten plastic, then quickly cooled in the air, and finally cured into a stable state, just a few hours of practice, will be able to trace the amazing splendor.

Types 3D pen is the product of the development of 3D printing technology, which is currently the most widely used in the market.

It mainly has two types: one is a melt extrusion type, the other is a light-curing type. The two ways are different in material as well as targeting, melt extrusion type is to plastic wire as raw material, mainly through the heating process within the pen to melt the plastic wire, and then extrude the melted material to achieve natural cooling curing molding; light curing type is to photosensitive resin liquid as raw material, not through heating direct extrusion, and then through the role of ultraviolet light to complete the curing molding process.

How do 3D pens work Power on—→Switch material modes—→PLA Mode /ABS Mode —→Press the setting to feed in—→ Adjust the temperature to 175°—→The green light is ready to use—→Press the retraction setting to retract filament after using, and then unplug the power.

Notes: The pen tip still has residual temperature, so be alert to scalding when retracting filaments and cleaning the pen.

You need to know 1. Do not leave the filaments staying in the pen for a long time, you need to retract the filaments first and put them in after use.

2. After a pause during use, it is advised to retract the filaments in the mode of first in and then out (Press the setting to feed in first for 2-3 seconds, then retract it).
