This Kitronik University Course contains a range of projects to make with your 3D printer. If you want to get the most out of your 3D printer then...

This week’s blog features our biggest product launch to date, the CEL Robox 3D Printer and filaments range! We have been looking forward to bringing this to you for a few weeks now, and so here it is along with some information for you to browse through.

The What If? Machine was an open weekend held at the Derby Silk Mill Museum to celebrate the work of famous illustrator and eccentric William Heath-Robinson. Dominic Morrow, the coordinator gave us an insight into the day and it's events.

Introducing the IsoSketch 3D Design Tool: The cure for "I can't draw".

Print your own cases and accessories with our 'designed for Kitronik' 3D models.

Selecting 3D Printer Filament. 3D printers work by building up thin layers of heated plastic material, or filament. Which you use can depend on the end use and the type of printer you have. Find out the differences between the types.

This Kitronik University Course covers aspects of 3D Printing, including general FAQs such as the differences between types of filament, and Robox RBX-01 specific resources such as changing the print head, loading filament and more.

It's Friday and we've got new products to tell you about. This week we are introducing an FM Radio Telescopic Antenna / Aerial, a new Poplar Plywood, and a range of new capacitors for use with our components kits.

The Kitronik Team join other industry design professionals at the Fernwood School Design Day.

We've some new materials to enhance our wide range of laserable plywoods (laserply). This week's addition is high quality, high flexibility Birch Plywoods in 0.8mm, 1.5mm and 2.0mm thickness's. The high quality and thinness of these plywoods allows them to be used in projects where the wood needs to flex.

Sarah Davies Senior Lecturer from the Nottingham Trent University (NTU) School of Education came to us with a great opportunity for teachers!

Matt Little has used 0.8mm Frosted Polypropylene Sheet to make a funky 70s style laser cut, modular lampshade inspired by designer Holger Strøm.

Welcome to the Kitronik University. We've written lots of guides on topics ranging from understanding electronic principles, practical demonstrations around soldering, e-textiles resources and much more. We've split things into three topics called Learning, Teaching and Making in order to help you quickly find the course you need.

This Kitronik University course will teach you some of the basic skills you need to become proficient in electronics.

This Kitronik University course features a series of guides explaining principles of electronics. You'll learn how to identify components and circuit symbols, how common components work and how to make important calculations such as resistors and capacitors in series and parallel.

This Kitronik University resource has parts lists for the IET Scout electronics badge projects.
