LIX The Smallest 3D Printing Pen in the World on Kickstarter, Video

LIX is an incredibly small 3D pen that can doodle in the air and create designs for 3D printing.

Founded is a limited liability company which is established by a team of three co-founders, Ismail Baran, Anton Suvorov and Delphine Eloise Wood.

How It Works:

LIX 3D printing pen has the similar function as 3D printers. It melts and cools coloured plastic, letting you create rigid and freestanding structures. Lix has a hot-end nozzle that is power supplied from USB 3.0 port. The plastic filament ABS/PLA is introduced in the upper extremity of Lix Pen. The filament goes through a patented mechanism while moving through the pen to finally reach the hot-end nozzle which melts and cools it down. An interesting fact about this light-weight, engineered pen is that these structures can be formed in any imaginable shape.

Take a look at the amazing LIX video below:
