>For the cantilever design: it is already used by Prusa 3D printers which are well regarded (in the field of amateur 3D printing) so I do not think this is an issue for the targeted accuracy which is typically 10 to 50 micrometers. 3d printers don't have forces pushing back on the print head, nor the vibration from a cutting tool to deal with. This design might work ok for 3d printing, or laser cutting, or anything else where no contact between the working head and the material occurs. As far as accuracy and repeatability, it's going to be about as good as the average 3d printer design. It's a nifty idea for a system, but it's only a decent machine for cutting if it's scaled up massively and built of cast iron or similar materials. |
