The Best Value Printer Option
This is Dremel’s 2nd generation 3D printer, designed for anyone from a first-time user to an advanced professional. Backed by Dremel’s lifetime support and a one year warranty, the 3D40-FLX is built for everyday usage. It's flexible build plate makes removing printed models a snap, while its easy-to-use features, and a hassle-free set-up, can get your first print started within minutes.
Extruder Designed for Reliable Printing
This is the engine that powers the 3D40-FLX forward. The direct drive, all metal extruder is clog resistant and delivers smooth 3D prints. The 3D40-FLX extruder heats up to 230°C. When filament runs out a built-in detection pauses the print and resumes printing where you left off when new filament has been added. Also included in the Extruder head is an automatic Leveling Sensor that adds precision leveling for even more reliable printing.
Windows, MacOS, iOS and Chromebook Compatible
In addition to a desktop slicer, Dremel offers a cloud software solution, compatible with all mobile and desktop devices with an Internet browser. Dedicated cloud servers ensure high speeds and stability on mobile devices, desktop, chrome books or iPads.
Network Friendly and Fast Connectivity
Equipped with Static IP, Proxy and two, separate, 1GHz processors, the 3D40-FLX achieves fast and reliable cloud printing. You can connect to the 3D40-FLX via LAN, Wi-Fi or Cloud. This enables you to manage user access, queue prints, view print history and run reports using the Administrator portal.
The Advanced Fleet Management software allows you to set user access levels as well as collect reports and analytics. You can select available printers to send a job to. Plus, you can share access to your printers with remote users in other locations.
High Resolution Printing
The Dremel 3D40-FLX is a high performance printer. It can deliver ultra fine resolution with 50 Micron (1/20th of mm) layers as well as up to 300 Micron in print thickness. Manufactured with high quality components, the 3D40- FLX is internally tested by Bosch (800 hours) for safety and performance and 3rd party tested by UL.
30 Standard Aligned Lesson Plans
20 Lessons (3rd – 12th grades) incorporate design thinking through a design challenge. Students gain experience with the entire 3D printing process: designing with Auto-desk software, 3D printing, testing and learning, and re-designing if needed to achieve the desired outcome and pass the lesson. Students are encouraged to test a variety of open-ended solutions until they satisfy the criteria outlined in the lesson plan or by the instructor.
10 Lessons (6th – 12th grades) offer an easy to follow lesson with no need for 3D design software skills. These lessons are for first time users and can be implemented immediately.
30 total Lesson Plans enable a hassle free adoption for teachers. Aligned to Common Core, NGSS and TEKS)
Online, Self-Paced Training with 4 PD Credit Hours*
Through this training course you will get experience using software and hardware to design and print real objects using your Dremel 3D printer. Includes critical Pedagogy instruction on how to implement Dremel 3D Lesson Plans. The course includes videos, articles, lesson plans, school case studies, and hands-on learning opportunities that provide a pathway to help you master implementation of 3D printing in the classroom.
Quizzes at the end of each module provide you with feedback on your progress and learning. On completion of this self-paced 4-hour class you will receive a certificate of completion valid for 4 hours of Professional Development credits.
*Only one 4 hour certificate of completion per voucher (access code).
Additional Filament and Supplies
Get more of the consumable materials you will need to keep your students printing and learning. Packed with 4 total spools of PLA filament and 4 build sheets, the 3D40-FLX-EDU kit has at least twice the supplies versus the basic printer kit. Spend less time creating Purchase Orders and more time printing.
The additional build plate also allows students to quickly swap out build plates and remove the printed object while simultaneously using the other plate and not losing any time in inserting, leveling or starting a new print.
