Flux is developing a modular 3D printer whose interchangeable heads enable scanning, designing and printing in a single device. The project emphasizes openness, letting the community build swappable components beyond simple print-head changes. Flux demonstrated working prototypes that perform the claimed functions, but has not yet shipped a production unit. The team launched a Kickstarter campaign that has generated significant pre-order interest and stretch-goal-driven features. Co-founder Simon Ko said the company has staggered production to try to avoid manufacturing hiccups. Engineering complexity and community-driven extensions present ongoing challenges as the company moves toward fulfillment.
