3D Printed Flashlight With Working Parts!

One of the main challenges in 3D printing is to produce prototype parts that can be tested and used in the same way as the final product. Objet has overcome many aspects of this challenge thanks to the Connex multi-material 3D printing system which can print a range of different material properties at the same time within the same model.

  1. Very interesting, Objet definitely stands out in the 3D printing world for producing multiple materials in a single print. Cool post!

  2. Hi Sam:
    Very interesting post. One thing I would mention is that its not really a completely “functional” flashlight as the elctrical path from batteries to the switch – bulb/LED is not created by the printer if I understand this correctly.

    Nevertheless seems like a breakthrough – thanks for posting it.

      Hi Bill – of course, your right. I wanted to say that it’s really the functional on-off button – but it’s a bit too difficult to squeeze that into a title! Thanks for following! Sam.
