We would like to thank you all for the support you give Filabot all year. We are so lucky to have such a great following and customers. Thank you for all you do!  We wish you and your families the Happiest of Holidays Cheers, The Massive Dimension Team

We wanted to reach out and let everyone know that starting November 20th Massive Dimension will have limited to delay responses due to our Holiday break. We have all worked hard, from our engineering team to our customer support and this break is well deserved. Our fulfillment will be open at start of the week but will be closed to observe the Thanksgiving holiday. We wish all of our customers and readers a safe and happy holiday next week, The Massive Dimension Team

IMPORTANT NOTE: Going forward the posts related to our collaboration with binary and the University of Utah will be posted only on the Filabot website as Filabot products will be featured/used. Next week, the students transition to a second class project that combines filament extrusion on the Filabot EX2 with subtractive fabrication methods. To follow the story please go to the Filabot website and join the email list and/or follow our social media accounts. ------------------- Our fourth and final spotlight for the the Design of University of Utah Digital Assemblies class showcases their aleatory-inspired final product, as well as the magnetic experimental materials and large-format prints...

Today the spotlight shines on another group within the Design of University of Utah Digital Assemblies class to showcase their final product as well as design efforts behind the experimental materials  and large-format prints created using the Filabot EX2 and the Massive Dimension Pellet Head Extruder. Choosing the design prompt of “Tactile Communication”, this group designed their experimental material using turmeric as their additive to the post-industrial recycled PETG. “We arrived on the additive material of turmeric because it would be malleable enough to snap into place, translucent enough to allow light to penetrate, and a soft enough color that it won’t disrupt...

Today the spotlight shines on a second group within the Design of University of Utah Digital Assemblies class to showcase their final product as well as design efforts behind the experimental material(s) they created using the Filabot EX2, and the lamp shades printed using the Massive Dimension Pellet Head Extruder. Using the design prompt of Tactile Communication, this group designed their experimental material using an additive (Chromazone Black-Pink by Atlanta Chemical) that changes color in response to thermal changes to the material. Quickly moving through hand-sketched ideas (image 2) and simple paper models (image 3), the group finally landed on a...
