OmniMaker Modular 3D Printer & More

[Brian_Krassenstein]

There is yet another multi-functioning machine making its way into the market, at least they hope. OmniMaker has launched a Kickstarter campaign to try and raise $25,500 for their idea. The OmniMaker is a modular machine which can swap out different tools. For instance it can be a 3D scanner, an SLA 3D printer, an FDM 3D printer, and milling machine. You just change out the top of the unit to change its function. More details on this machine can be found here: http://3dprint.com/16272/omnimaker-3d-printer/

Let us know if you plan on backing the OmniMaker. Below is a picture of the machine:

The print quality is some of the worse print quality I have every seen, it seems like their extruder is around 5 steps per mm

Here's what i asked OmniMaker on their Facebook page:

"Hei OmniMaker,

What's the information on:

1) Is the Build area = Work area?
2) Layer thickness/resolution of both FDM and SLA modules?
3) printing speed of both FDM and SLA modules?

# Curious, why aren't all the above info. not specified In the Kickstarter campaign page?

Or have l MISSED Something?"
