Sketching in three dimensions

A 3D printing pen is a device that can draw in the air or on almost any surface. The 3D printing pen uses a thermoplastic material, such as ABS, which is used by many 3D printers. The pen contains an electric heater that melts the plastic, which then cools as it comes out of the tip of the pen, like cream from a traditional cake decorating piping bag. The pen works similarly to 3D printers, but allows the user to practice creating sophisticated three-dimensional shapes with their own hands, and additionally bypasses the need to use three-dimensional modeling (CAD) software. This solution is ideal for fun and for making quick sketches of three-dimensional objects.

Wide range of supported materials

3D printing pens use, like classic 3D printers, thermoplastic materials to produce the printed element. Thanks to this, you can use a wide range of 3D printing materials, such as PLA, PETG, ABS or TPU. This makes the 3D printing pen a very universal tool for sketching in three dimensions. Additionally, it is possible to correct or supplement items made on a classic 3D printer thanks to material compatibility.

Potential applications - not just a toy

The first 3D printing pens that appeared on the market were intended to be mainly educational toys for the youngest. They allow the development of creativity and artistic abilities in children. It was quickly noticed that this type of system works not only in the field of education. It was quickly adopted by adult creators and professionals who use 3D printing pens to pre-sketch mechanical elements or improve prototype prints from classic 3D printers.

3D printing pens - FAQ

When choosing a 3D pen, you should first of all pay attention to the type of modeling (e.g. FDM) and the type of filament (e.g. PLA ). It is also worth checking the possibility of changing the print speed, operating range, nozzle temperature, diameter of the thermoplastic material (e.g. 1.75 mm) and compatible nozzles (or more precisely, their diameters). Selected models of 3D pens are equipped with additional functions such as automatic filament retraction and security features such as immediate power off.

A 3D pen is a device that allows you to create three-dimensional prints using thermoplastic material, i.e. filament. The 3D pen allows you to draw in the air, in virtually any plane. The device contains a heater whose main task is to heat the thermoplastic to the temperature at which the filament changes its state from solid to liquid. To put it very simply, a 3D pen works similarly to a 3D printer .
