ZBuilder Ultra Rapid Prototyping Highlights

I want to invest in a 3d Printing machine, but before I do, I need to know that it can do what I want it to do… I know the machine can make anything, so long as it is in an STL format. I’m not creating ‘things’ as such, but rather creating images… I really need to know if I can convert an image into an STL so that I can print it in 3D.

Thanks!!

Product Description
Our 12″x12″ Table Top Vacuum Former is perfect for small businesses and hobbyists who want to create parts in plastic up to 1/8″ thick. Produce intricate shapes with results that rival expensive commercial machines in their incredible accuracy and detail: prototypes, custom packaging, RC car bodies, model rocket nose cones, molds for plaster or concrete, chocolate and candy, candles, and soap making. Our 12″x12″ Vacuum former includes a perforated aluminum vacuum platen (the top surface that delivers the vacuum under the hot plastic) that is computer designed and precision CNC machined to maximize air flow and eliminate unnecessary volume – both critical to rapid air evacuation and professional vacuum forming results. Detailed, step-by-step instructions along with sources for vacuum formable plastics are included. Compatible with all types of thermoform plastic: ABS, Acrylic (Plexiglas), Butyrate, PET-G, Polycarbonate (Lexan), Polyethylene, PVC, Styrene, Vinyl, etc. Requires house hold oven and Shop-Vac style vacuum cleaner with 1 1/4″ hose/adapter. Vacuum Forming Explained in 3 Easy Steps: Step #1: Secure your plastic between the vacuum former’s metal frames. Attach your Shop-Vac (not included) to the vacuum former. Place your model on top of the perforated aluminum vacuum platen. Step #2: Place the plastic in your kitchen oven and watch as it becomes soft and begins to sag. Align the metal frames with the vacuum former’s guides and lower the plastic over your model. Step #3: The hot plastic forms an air tight seal around the vacuum platen’s edges. Vacuum pressure pulls the hot plastic down around the model. After cooling for a few seconds the plastic part is complete.

The vv-engine, which we call the Reinhardt Turbine after its inventor, is a two-staged (gas and steam) thermodynamic process machine that can be built with off-the-shelf components. The German and US-American patent applications as well as a functioning prototype machine are based on existing technology, not anticipated technological breakthroughs. The Reinhardt Turbine offers a new path for power machine development that will lead to machines achieving 80% fuel efficiency and zero emissions in the next decade. Existing piston and turbine technologies do not offer this innovation path as they are mature technologies. This prototype is running a gas cycle and a steam cycle.
