Most 3D prints are typically high cost and not very environmentally friendly. They are also usually one color, though some newer technologies enable printing with multiple colors.
Mcor Technologies has created a new technology that is low cost (80% to 90% less than typical printing technologies) and very eco-friendly. The prints are actually made of paper and as a result, the prints can also be created in vivid, true color.
The build volume is 9.39 x 6.89 x 5.9in, which isn't huge, but it's not bad. If you need a bigger print, glue multiple parts together. One of the most notable features of this new technology is the flexibility it gives products and prints such as the wallet featured in this city. It is made from paper but can bend efficiently just as any other durable material used to create wallets.
