Jiri Praus has created an Arduino-powered CNC machine that can precisely bend brass wire, and even features a set of rollers to help straighten the wire before any precision bends are made. This ...
“We are excited about creating an entirely new form of desktop manufacturing,” said Marco Perry, partner at Pensa. “We believe this open all kinds of new possibilities, especially if you combine the ...
Over a year ago, Pensa Labs caught our attention with its impressive DIWire Bender, a small machine that bends thick wires into elaborate 3D shapes by following simple vector drawings. Since then, the ...
Do you want to make your own springs? Yeah, that’s what we thought. Well, blow the dust off of that spare Arduino and keep reading. A few months ago, we let you know that renowned circuit sculptor ...
It doesn’t seem as though bending wire would be much of a chore, but when you’re making art from your circuits, it can be everything. Just the right angle in just the right place can make the ...
If you enjoy creating new things you might be interested in a new machine called the DIWire Wire Bender which has been created to enable you to bend wire to your exact specifications. The innovative ...
But despite their mainstream adoption and the promises of how they'll transform manufacturing, there's one thing that these new machines still suck at. "3-D printers and CNC [lathes] are well suited ...
All I can say is that I am really, really tempted to build one of these little beauties and then spend a happy few weeks bending furiously It’s funny how sometimes you don’t know that you want ...
We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. For people who work in construction, bending wires is essential for electrical and electronic work, especially in tight spaces. In a jiffy, ...
