Vacuum Pump 3 CFM Single Stage 5 Pa Ultimate Vacuum 1.4 HP

$89.95

Includes free technical support.

Introduction:

If you need to create a vacuum, this pump will draw a vacuum down to 5 Pa. Remember that normal atmosphere, around sea level is 100,000 Pa or 100 KPa. The vacuum pump is very small for its power (1/4 HP). The volume of air that it can move is 3 CFM (Cubic Feet Per Minute). This item also goes well with our vacuum pressure sensor switch.

Description:

The applications that you can use this vacuum pump is vast. We use it for picking and placing. I am constantly hearing of customers use these pneumatic items for all kinds of applications from degassing to clamping/gluing.

3D Printed Optics
I came across a rather interesting idea while checking out Disney's Research Hub: Printed Optics. They seem to be quite interested in fabrication and 3D printing as a good majority of their videos pertain to this type of subject matter. More interestingly, they have devised a way to print objects that embed optical characteristics so that light traverses where they intend to create some very interesting effects.

New 3D printing algorithms speed production, reduce waste
Purdue University researchers have developed two software algorithms for trimming time and material, reducing 3D-printing time by up to 30 percent and the amount of support material by up to 65 percent. The new PackMerger algorithm works by printing a project in segments that can fit into the printing tray and later be glued together.
