That looks like a neat hack wirebender at http://blog.pensanyc.com/ for the "DIWire Bender"
To me it looks like they are using aluminum wire, so it is pretty soft. The steppers seem to have gear boxes on them. The controller seems to be an arduino driving polu stepper drivers. I wonder what the 'nozzle' is made from. It looks like something white. PTFE (Teflon)? I would think it would need to be about as hard as the wire or harder. The software looks pretty neat, but is it custom? I just don't recognize it. I think it could be pretty easy to control with EMC, but possibly harder than a 2D CNC rig. Inquiring minds want to know :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
