Focusproject at the ETH Zurich 2013-2014

This 3D-printer was develeped, manufactured and assembled in a so called focus project within the last year of the bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. Due to new way of implementing the Core-XY cinematics concept we were able to print in very high velocities like 450 mm/s what was about 8 times faster then available 3D-printers back then. Another intersting feature was the large printing space of 400 mm x 400 mm x 400 mm.

My fellow student and I implemented a cascaded position control system in our bachelor thesis
