Hangprinter is an open-source fused deposition modeling delta 3D printer notable for its unique frameless design, it was created by Torbjörn Ludvigsen. All parts of the Hangprinter are contained within a single unit which uses cables to suspend the printer within a room, allowing it to create extremely large objects over 4 meters tall.[1][2][3][4] The Hangprinter uses relatively low cost parts and can be constructed for around $250 USD, the printer is part of the RepRap project and was created by Torbjørn Ludvigsen.[1][2][3][4] The project files are available on Github for download, modification and redistribution.[5]
