Meet ClayXYZ

ClayXYZ is the most user-friendly desktop clay 3D printer ever. Just load the clay, download the model and click start to enjoy it, the process of creation. It allows you to print your special cup, vase and bowl, in addition to artworks like mask, sculpture and building model.

The print material, clay, makes it different from the traditional 3D printer. Clay can be reused, very environment-friendly. Besides, the standardized process of loading clay is as simple as changing a battery.

“Allowing you to create anything from intricate vases and bowls to masks and models, it’s a great idea — and something any self-respecting maker is going to want to add to their home studio.” -Digital Trends

“ClayXYZ promises to be a revolutionary tool for individual ceramicists and sculptures ”- Designboom

“ Printing in clay is getting more popular, where items could make fantastic gifts, mugs, light shades and models. It’s certainly a niche of 3D printing that’s worth exploring further.”-All3DP

We love to bring our incredibly magical design to life.

Drink Water with Your Printed Cup

Most of the previous 3D printers print out ABS or PLA plastic models, just product prototypes or models for display. Now you can use ClayXYZ to print out a unique cup, fire it in kiln. After that, the cup can be directly used to drink water. You can also 3D print your own lampshade and bowl, design your own warm home.

Enjoy the happiness of creation when you get free from your busy work. A great sense of accomplishment will come with your clay turning into a unique model. Work together with your children to design artworks, to explore the world in a brand-new way. You can build your own pyramid, the Great Wall and even the Empire State Building!

Three Steps to Start

Load the clay: Load clay into the tube, then connect the tube with extrusion device.

Download the model: start slicing software, download the model you want to print, then set such parameters as thickness and fill ratio.

Hit print: click start to send print order to the 3D printer.

Three Steps to Enjoy

Don't worry about limited 3D design experience

We share Library of Models. We are continuously developing and adding new models on our Website or Thingiverse. So far, we have successfully printed many models, like cups, kettles, bookends, mask and Great Wall. All those models have been tested, which can be perfectly realized by ClayXYZ.

You can download models from clayxyz.com

Also, users can upload awesome models to our website, share them with others.

You can repair the printed artwork

You are able to choose different clays to deliver different styles. Also, you can glaze the artwork if you want it more fascinating. Glaze it with different colors, then fire it via kiln.

You can repair the clay-printed artwork.

Extremely stunning! Besides, you can repair the clay-printed artwork. Don’t worry about making it worse. Melt it in the water and reuse the material. Pretty environment-friendly!

ClayXYZ helps you starting from 1 to ∞

With ClayXYZ, you will be free from spending much time on the same things. As an architect or sculptor, you can let ClayXYZ help you to print a lot of rough models, and then you can adjust and even recreate artworks on the basis of that. This is very time-saving! Just focus on making your most desirable design.

For Artists and Designers

The traditional 3D printer uses ABS plastic material which can not be reused. ClayXYZ uses the ordinary clay. You can dissolve it in water and reuse the material. Pretty environment-friendly.

Extremely fun

Easy to Get the Print Materials

You can buy it anywhere you can. Amazon Link

The clay is affordable for everyone.

Reusable Natural Material

Melt it in the water and reuse the material. Pretty environment-friendly!

Reusable Natural Material

Try the Air Hardening Modelling Clay

Many different brands

Great for both classroom and studio use

Doesn't require oven baking - air dries in 24 hours

Super pliability helps build hand strength and fine motor skills

Perfect for all ages

You do not need to worry about firing problems because of this kind of clay exists. It is easy to buy (Amazon Link), and the price is very affordable.

Fire the Model

Decorating it Before Firing

You can add some decorating components when it is half-dry.

How to do it

Use a moist sponge to softly smear the surface of the dry model, until it is moist;

Smear the glaze on the surface of the model, until the model is covered with 4 to 5 layers of glaze. Then air-dry the model.

Add beautiful patterns on the surface by using other glazes if you like it.

Put it into a kiln to fire it. 20 hours later, done!

If you just want to verify your design, then you do not need firing. If you want to make porcelain, you can choose to fire it. It is easy to buy (Amazon Link), and the price is very affordable.

ClayXYZ Extrusion Device for Clay

It can be compatible with many existing FDM 3D printers. The extrusion device employs special air compressor, perfectly remove bubbles out clay. In this way, improve the accuracy of printing, meet the needs of daily creation.

Tube and Compressor

If you already have an FDM 3D printer, you just need to buy the extrusion device to enjoy the fun of creating artworks from clay.

Comparison

Hardware

Printer firmware: Arduino Mega2560 as master control, compatible with Reprap Marlin firmware.

Extruder: high-precision stepper motor-driven spiral extrusion structure.

Overall structure: aluminum XYZ three-axis high-precision stepper motor control structure, the accuracy of 15 microns.

Software

Supports Windows, Mac, or Linux

Connected to PC via USB

Supports model formats: STL, OBJ, STP, IGS

Print control software: Repetier Host

Compatible Slice Software: Slic3r or Cura

Supports Windows, Mac, or Linux

Print Materials

Support ordinary clay material. Improve clay performance by adding additives like gypsum powder.

How do We Control Accuracy?

The overall mechanical frame is made of 2020 aluminum, employs screw drive linear guide structure. With Arduino Mega2560 as the master, the use of A4988 drive module to drive high-precision stepper motor, in addition to Marlin firmware compatible with Reprap printer, ClayXYZ’s mechanical precision reaches 15 microns.

How do We Control Print Quality?

The use of high-precision stepper motor drive extrusion device, along with the pressure valve and solenoid valve, achieves the control of clay pressure and switch. Ultimately, print precision comes to 0.2mm.

How We Made It So Affordable?

Open source Arduino Mega2560 and Marlin firmware compatible Reprap are used to control XYZ triaxial motion of the printer, greatly reducing the cost on the premise of ensuring printer accuracy and quality. The use of recyclable ordinary clay as a raw material greatly reduces the cost of materials.
