In this blog post, I will review the 4D Dream printer and show you some of the amazing things it can do. I will also tell you how you can win one of these printers for yourself in the Two Trees Giveaway. So, let’s get started!
What is 4D printing?
Before we dive into the details of the 4D Dream printer, let’s first understand what 4D printing is and how it works. 4D printing is a form of additive manufacturing that creates objects that can transform their shape over time in response to external stimuli, such as heat, light, moisture, or pressure. Unlike 3D printing, which creates static objects, 4D printing creates dynamic objects that can adapt to their environment and perform various functions.
How is this possible? The key lies in the materials used for 4D printing. These materials are called shape memory polymers (SMPs), which are special types of plastics that can change their shape when heated and then return to their original shape when cooled. By programming different parts of the SMPs to react differently to heat, you can create complex shapes that bend, twist, fold, or expand in predetermined ways.
What is the 4D Dream printer?
The 4D Dream printer is a breakthrough product from TwoTrees that combines 3D printing and 4D printing technologies. It is a desktop printer that can print objects using both regular PLA filament and SMP filament. It has a dual extruder system that allows you to print with two different materials at the same time. It also has a heated bed and a cooling fan that help control the temperature of the printed objects.
The 4D Dream printer has a large build volume of 300 x 300 x 400 mm, which means you can print big and complex objects with ease. It has a high printing speed of up to 150 mm/s and a high printing resolution of up to 50 microns. It supports various slicing software, such as Cura, Simplify3D, and PrusaSlicer. It also has a touch screen interface and a WiFi connection that make it easy to operate and monitor.
You can see all the features of this printer at the Official Two Trees Youtube Channel:
What can you print with the 4D Dream printer?
The possibilities are endless with the 4D Dream printer. You can print anything from toys and art pieces to functional devices and prototypes. You can also mix and match different materials and colors to create unique and colorful prints. Here are some examples of what you can print with the 4D Dream printer:
- A flower that opens and closes when exposed to light
- A butterfly that flaps its wings when heated
- A bracelet that changes its shape when worn
- A lampshade that adjusts its brightness according to the ambient light
- A car model that transforms into a plane when lifted
