HP is getting into the 3D printer market
Don’t let HP’s involvement confuse you, there’s a very good chance John Q. Consumer won’t be able to afford a 3D printer anytime soon. But the company is dipping its toes into the industry thanks to a deal with Stratasys. The latter will produce an “exclusive line of 3D printers based on Stratasys’ patented Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology.” Those will be sold under HP branding targeted at the Mechanical Design (MCAD) market. The specific product details are still shrouded in mystery (that’s just a quick Photoshop, left), but for perspective, Stratasys’ cheapest printer is the uPrint, which can mold 8 x 6 x 6-inch models for a smidgen under $15,000. Still interested, despite price deterrent? Don’t forget there’s some DIY options for you out there for less than a grand.
