Overview

Polaroid's most advanced 3D printing pen; the Polaroid Design 3D Pen features a built-in fan to reduce heat and eliminate jamming, auto-feed and auto-eject functions for prolonged use, variable speed, precise temperature setting, an OLED screen and many more unique features.

The Polaroid Design 3D Pen
The Polaroid Design 3D Pen is our most advanced 3D printing pen. From it’s sleek, ergonomic and intuitive design to a full range of features, it was created with a single purpose - to be the most versatile tool in your design arsenal.

The 3D pen industry is a growing segment of 3D printing. 3D pens have become an integral part of how users create 3D models without the need for a 3D printer.
With this in mind, we wanted to provide professionals with a 3D pen that allows for precise detailing and comfort.

The Polaroid Design 3D Pen was created with the help of designers, architects, and engineers who desired a higher quality pen that eliminates jamming and other issues found in many 3D pens on the market. We have created a versatile pen that allows you the freedom to create any structure, design or prototype while using a variety of materials and is without limitations.

Available in four distinct colors:

Matte Black
Erbium Grey
Slate Grey
Tuscan Sun Gold

With an elegant ergonomic design, the Polaroid Design 3D Pen has a multitude of unique design features that make it Polaroid's most advanced 3D printing pen.

Anti-Jamming

A built-in internal cooling fan prevents the pen from jamming during prolonged use.

Auto-Eject

The auto shut-off feature that puts the pen into standby mode after four minutes of inactive use, and ejects the filament before going into full sleep mode.

Temperature Control

The speed settings also control preset temperature settings that correspond to material type. Manual override control allows you to adjust the temperature to the required degree.

Variable Speeds

The 6 preset speeds allow you greater precision and control.

Versatile Filament

The Polaroid Design 3D Pen allows you the freedom to create any structure, design or prototype using a vast array of materials and to mix the elements into one complete design. This makes it one of the most versatile tools in your design toolbox.

User-Centric Display

A high-resolution OLED LCD screen allows greater detail with more information: temperature, speed, and material type are simultaneously displayed.

Ergonomic Design

The sleek and stylish design is ergonomically balanced for prolonged use. All finishes are designed to be both durable and elegant.

The Polaroid Design 3D pen works by a method called extrusion. Filament is placed into a small opening on one end of the pen and is heated as it is fed through the pen. As the filament comes out the other end, it becomes soft and pliable and can be sculpted into any desired shape. After a few seconds, the filament hardens again and forms its new shape. Utilizing this technique, you can create shapes in 3D space without the restriction of a canvas.

See just how easy it is to create with the Polaroid Design 3D Pen.

Here are more examples of how you can use the Polaroid Design 3D pen to bring ideas and design off the page and into real life.

A few months ago, we gave four industry professionals the new Polaroid Design 3D Pen to try. Two weeks later these are their creations.

I can see myself using this pen to design models that I can then send off to the manufacturer.

Sally Han - Jewelry Designer

It will be able to help me draft up rapid prototypes right before I meet with my clients.

Angela Ong - Product Designer

I can create creature concepts and test their look and feel in minutes instead of days.

Eddie Kiriliuk - 3D Animator

This allows me to create something as I am thinking of it and really having a form.

Geoffrey Keith - Architect
