Re:3D is scaling waste-to-print technology at the Autodesk Technology Center using Gigabot X systems to print directly from plastic flakes. ♻️ By skipping filament extrusion, Fused Granular Fabrication reduces material costs by nearly 90% and cuts carbon footprints. 📉 This research leverages open-source data to stabilize the printing of unpredictable recycled polymers for industrial parts. This shift enables a decentralized circular economy where local waste is the primary resource. 🏗️ #3DPrinting #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #AM
