The Lix 3D Pen lets you sketch in the air without paper, creating rigid, free-standing 3D structures from prototype data. It revolutionizes creative expression by making 3D drawing easy and accessible.

Basically, Lix is a professional tool that allows you to sketch in the air without needing paper.

The first 3D pen is a dream come true. With the Lix 3D Pen, you can create anything, from small to large, based on prototype data. It allows you to express your creativity on a whole new level. We are changing the way the world sees 2D, as we are now giving you the ability to make your creations in 3D in a way that has never been this easy.

The LIX 3D printing pen functions similarly to 3D printers. It melts and cools colored plastic, allowing you to create rigid, free-standing structures. Lix has a nozzle at the hot end that is powered by a wall charger. The ABS/PLA plastic filament is fed into the top end of the Lix Pen. The filament passes through a mechanism as it moves through the pen to finally reach the hot-end nozzle, which melts and cools it. An interesting fact about this lightweight, engineering-grade pen is that these structures can be formed into any shape imaginable.
