Full Colour 3D printer

3D printers are nothing new. Industrial companies have been using it for many years to produce prototypes and product designs.

In fact my University had a few units for industrial design students to create prototypes of their work. Unfortunately our units were not coloured, which meant that students would have to paint their prototypes manually. Depending on the skills of the student, this could mean poorly painted prototypes.

But recently ZCorporation has launched a new all in one 3D colour printer, allowing prototypes to be printed in full colour. The ZCorporation 650 3D printer may not be able to reproduce all the colours that some people wish or the complexities of some designs, but it is a great stepping stone to what future products would be like. Hopefully cheaper, better products will come up in the future, allowing home users or freelance designers to be able to create their own 3D printout.
