Design philosophy and considerations in order of importance:
Cheap. Target price if put into mass production around $100. During development and bootstrapping periods $200.
Cheap. I know we said that already but it's important.
Simple and easy to assemble
Reuse of common parts and limiting of fasteners
Assembled printer must fit in the priority mail prepaid box.
What makes the baby belt special
Use of smallest cheapest stepper motors ever
Use of 3mm round rods with 3mm PtfE tubes used as bearings
Simple iron on belt made from fabric and iron on material along with use of jigs for repeatability.
Smallest belt printer ever (as of right now)
Cantilever arm
Easily broken down for storage or transport and easy setup with two clip together assemblies for the whole machine.
Sensorless homing.
Aerodynamic exit ramp for parts.
Only two types of screws used for every thing (discipline design approach reducing overall BOM cost)
Non commerical, Help from Autodrop3d's mmiscool, Ottersdangerden and NAK-3d.
