Introduction Yerdna 3D:
Why we decided to build new model of 3D printer?
I looked up for small desktop 3D printer, with SOLID frame, and big rigidity. I compared around 120 different models of 3D printers around me, but I was not very satisfied wit results. There was nothing for me... Most of printers, are not truly DESKTOP printers, they are huge, with dimensions around 60 x 60 x 60 cm, what can we not present as small desktop 3D printer.
Desktop 3D printers are also on the market, but are they really 3D printers or only toys for children???
Then I decided to build something with dimensions 30 x 30 x 30cm but with STRONG rods 8mm and 6mm and solid FRAME. And result of this is Yerdna 3D printer.
Our goal was:
a, true desktop printer (on desktop we have computer, and not too much space for big 3d printers)
b, solid frame (small printers are only toys, not real profesional printers, and their rigidity is very small)
c, best price with all features

Features:
While
designing Yerdna 3D, we tried to include as many features as possible for the
price. Our current model is featured with following:
-
Build in display that provides detail information
in stand-by mode or during
the printing. Display can be used also for setting and maintaining the printer
before or even during the printing.
-
Yerdna 3D is equipped with SD card reader which
allows you to print without connection to the computer. This further increases
portability of the printer.
-
Connection to PC via USB port
-
Yerdna 3D is running open source customized
Marlin firmware so it provides unlimited possibilities for enthusiasts
What to do with so printer?
- With Yerdna 3D Printer you can test your 3D models prototypes (PLA)
- To have small-desktop printer is dream lof of people in the world. There are many hobbytist, there are lot of home designers around the world
- With Yerdna 3D Printer you can do anything (Print your School Projects, print your Ideas, Print your professional 3D models)
What We Need & What You Get:
- With your suppoort we can offer this printer to all people around world (There is basic rule: If you order bigger quantity, you will get better prices, and these better prices we want to offer to you...)
- First Truly moveable printer with High Rigidity (Small overall size 30x30x30cm)
- Small Overall size 30x30x30cm but BIG printing volume 13x12x13cm and more...

Building on a rigid aluminum frame, resulting in high quality output, minimal deflection, and providing instant access to the full build platform.
Your Cooperation:
- Our project is 100% finished and tested
- We will add this project to Open Source Community
- We will ADD lot of upgrades in the future (according your requirements)

What makes your product special?
Our 3D printer is truly affordable for best price in the market, and it is full modular, and after indiegogo Campaign, it will be Open Source. Yes, we will offer all BOM (Bill of Materials) and Drawings.
How did you come up with the idea for this product?
Yerdna 3D is
result of endeavor to bring 3D printing to masses but in different way like
rest of the low cost 3D printers. Our tour in building 3D printers starts many
months ago with vision to build compact, portable 3D printer for affordable
price. In few months first Yerdna saw the light. It was simple, light, compact,
easy to carry but it has one but. We weren’t satisfied with the printing
quality and also there stood a question, what new are we trying to bring into
the world of 3D printing? And the answer was simple, nothing. It was typical
low cost printer with very basic functions, not that good construction quality
and it would serve only for printing hobby stuff. Our answer to this shortages
was our new Yerdna 3D printer which is compact, lightweight, scalable,
affordable, feature rich, but first of all it has solid build construction and
printing quality of far more expensive printers.

Yerdna 3D as
hobby printer should engage the attention of vide variety of people. Thanks to
compact size and weight, powerful printing performance and affordable price tag
could serve as hobby printer in many households. It’s suitable for kids, for
educational purposes, for prototyping or just for fun. Biggest advantage
against common commercial printers is that it is easy do disassemble and
assemble. This and Merlin firmware running on Arduino makes Yerdna 3D perfect
pick for geeks who can perform miscellaneous upgrades and makes from Yerdna 3D
ultimate ground for their projects.

Open Source:
After end of indiegogo campaign, we will provide all documents about Yerdna 3D printer including detailed BOM + instructions for building.
If you want build space 20x20x20cm there is not issue for our design, you can build it with small modfications (you will use bigger aluminium profiles), but design and BOM will be 99% same.

About Us:
Behind
Yerdna 3D is standing team of 3 people. We are enthusiasts in 3D printing and we
follow this topic from very beginning of 3D printing and our attempts with own
3D printers starts 2 years ago. We have degrees from mechanical or electrical
engineering but first of all, we have strong will to success with our work and
make Yerdna 3D first choice for everybody who has looking for fully capable,
customizable 3D printer in a budget.
