Recently featured on 3ders.org, the scalable platform is described as a ‘bot with real-time control that can easily be dismantled and transported.

Perhaps most importantly, the platform is built to move a 40 pound end effector (aka the Ron 2.0 extruder) with ease. Euclid is powered by an Atmel-based Arduino board and controlled via a custom grasshopper script.

“Because Ron 2.0 is such a huge plastic extruder the ‘line weight’ is very wide. Coupled with the speed that the robot was moving makes for a very thick walled structure,” Schoch explained in a recent blog post. “So much so that I can stand on this thing, both upright and on its side… Total print time was about an hour (60 minutes), which in the world of 3D printing is fast. I will do my best to make the next one in 30 minutes.”
