Efficient Operation of 3D Printers in Print Farms and Manufacturing Companies
Aug. 28, 2024, 10:32 a.m.
We continue adding features that save a significant amount of time and streamline the operation of 3D printers in schools, companies, and print farms. We are enhancing our integration with Octoprint and Klipper and very soon, we will also support Bambulab printers! This way, Karmen will be compatible with the vast majority of commonly available 3D printers.
Karmen3D with an Advanced Klipper Interface
June 11, 2024, 11:25 a.m.
At Karmen, we've improved Klipper control by adding an interface in the printer details that provides access to the console, macros, and print files. Our goal is to make the workflow easier and more efficient for users who print continuously and manage multiple 3D printers of any type or brand.

If you're managing and controlling your 3D printers online via Karmen, and have your buddy building plan in Garmin #smartwatches, you probably lose the “Steps badge”. 🙂 Thanks to Karmen you can save a lot of time, filament and nerves. You don't need any SD cards, flash drives etc. Lately, in our development efforts, we've focused on improving user-friendliness and introducing new features that we'd like to share with you.

We would like to inform you about the new features in Karmen that we added during March of this year.
The effect of covering the printer on electricity consumption
Jan. 24, 2022, 1:58 p.m.
Since I managed to purchase a top cover for my Creality Ender 6 printer in the Black Friday sale at the end of November, I wondered if such a cover would ever pay for itself in terms of electricity saved, thanks to less heat leakage from the printer
Is 3D printing really 3D?
Oct. 14, 2021, 1:37 p.m.
I'm probably not the only one who has wondered if the ubiquitous 3D printing is really 3D. When you think about the function of classic FFF printers, you will probably realize that it is not a full-fledged printing in three axes. What i mean?
Effect of speed on printing time
May 8, 2021, 1:17 p.m.
Just after writing the previous article about the advantages and disadvantages of the Creality Ender 6 printer, information about another novelty from this Chinese company came out. She brought another printer to the market with serial number 7.
Ender 6

For 2021, the Chinese company Creality has prepared several novelties in the field of 3D printing. One of them is the innovative printer Ender 6. The printer offers a printing area of 250x250 mm (actually up to 260x260 mm) and a printing height of 400 mm. The printer itself has dimensions of 495x495x650 mm and weighs a respectable 25 kg.
Schools put 3D printing to work in education Karmen, a Czech company, is helping with that
Aug. 5, 2020, 1:06 p.m.
Putting 3D printing to work in education isn’t just for technical universities anymore. Many secondary schools, high schools and vocational schools have at least one 3D printer. They give their students an advantage at a time when the popularity of additive manufacturing – and its enjoyment – are constantly growing in design and industry. 3D printing is a part of education either as a specialized subject, a supplement to other subjects, or in the form of after school activities. The Třebešín Secondary Technical School is a good example.
