3D Printing: Fabidoo Launches USB Sticks with Individualizable 3D-Covers

Fabidoo ("Your Industrial Revolution") continues its pioneering work with 3D printed consumer products - and for the first time combines an electronic product with a 3D-printed customizable casing.

The first examples of their so-called “doo.sticks” – customized USB sticks – can be found now on the website.  The challenge Fabidoo had to surmount here was combining mass production capabilities with low yield individualized products.

Fabidoo offers doo.sticks to both retail consumers and corporate clients.

Notable is the implementation within the design tool.  Users can view and work the designs in both open or closed configurations.  One of the best examples:

Recently, Fabidoo also extended their product range with good luck charms, key chains, and fabidoos (trinkets for sweethearts).

Since its relaunch in March, designers participate in a profit sharing program based on sales of products using their designs.

Already by the end of last year Fabidoo made a breakthrough in product quality.  With the clear, glossy finish, the fabidoos are far more durable and porcelain-like than before.
