Discover our selection of the best robot 3D models, all these magnificent creations come from the 3D file library Cults and are perfectly 3D printable.
This collection includes free STL files from many robots. There are two main categories: articulated robots that can be 3D printed that actually work and 3D robots decoration files.
The functional robots 3D printed are obviously the most incredible, but they will require more work time. These are real projects including electronics (Raspberry pi or Arduino) and some programming skills.
Decoration robots are less complicated to print and assemble, but they are still excellent. It is really a subject that inspires the 3D designers, they create their own design or are inspired by already existing robots like Bender from Futurama, Optimus Prime, R2-D2, Well-E, etc..
Weekly Roundup: Ten 3D Printable Articulated Toy Robots - 3DPrint.com
This week I was looking for a cool toy to 3D print for my nephew and settled on looking for a fun robot action figure. I knew that there were already several great designs, but I ended up coming across so many great options that I had to share the ten best. So this week it’s all about articulated and jointed robot action figures, and boy do I have a ton of great options for you.
From projects that are perfect for novices and beginners, to much more complicated projects for experts, I found a robot figure kit for just about every skill level. While several of the models I chose will probably look much better painted once they have been assembled, most of these great models can be printed in the filament color of your choice and look fine.
Here are Ten 3D Printable Articulated Toy Robots:
FULLY-ARTICULATED ROBOT FIGURE
Jointed Robot by Shira
Found on: Thingiverse
Cost: Free
Spanish 3D model designer Sonia Verdú is no stranger to 3DPrint.com, her Robotica robot doll is one of the most popular 3D models on Thingiverse and went viral when she first uploaded it nearly two years ago now. However I think this fun, retro-styled robot design was eclipsed by the more popular Robotica and is worth a second look.
This robot figure has a similarly impressive range of motion, not to mention a simple, straightforward design that makes it easy to print and assemble.
Rather than plastic joints, this robot doll is held together with a piece of elastic cord, granting it a level of articulation that is pretty hard to beat.
Here is some video of Verdú assembling her jointed robot:
TIN HEAD ROBOT
Tin Head by Daniel Schunemann
Found on: MyMiniFactory
Cost: Free
Tin Head is a highly poseable robot action figure with almost 60 individual parts and 20 points of articulation. That gives him a huge range of movement, and allows him to be posed in a ton of great positions.
While the designer suggests that the parts can be sized up or down, it is probably going to work better if you stick to making him larger. A lot of the parts will need some supports, and a few of them will need some rafting to print correctly. Naturally that means a lot of post processing work, and you can either alternate the color filament used, or paint the parts before assembly.
This probably isn’t a project for beginners, but it should be simple enough for someone with experience 3D printing.
iBOT MODEL ROBOT KIT
IBOT Vr2.0 – The Simple Robot Model Kit by Lewj
Found on: Thingiverse
Cost: Free
The iBot robot model kit is a simple-to-print project that packs in quite a few surprises. The arms and legs have several ball joints and pivot points so he can be posed in a ton of ways, and he even has a secret compartment hidden in his body for things like coins or other small objects. The iBot would actually make a pretty cool gift box.
The designer of the iBot recommends supports and rafting when printing, but while looking at the individual STL files it doesn’t look like it will need much of either. The robot can be printed in any material, however the designer suggests standard PLA.
IRON JACK ROBOT
Iron Jack by Daniel Schunemann
Found on: MyMiniFactory
Cost: Free
Iron Jack is the big brother of Tin Head and they both share the same basic design and range of motion.
Most of his parts can also be swapped with the parts from Tin Head to build your own, unique robot action figure.
Iron Jack differs from his sibling-bot in a few ways; first he has a ton more robotic details that really make him more interesting and fun to make. It is also worth taking the time to properly prost process Iron Jack and paint him, although he will also look great if you print his parts in alternating filament colors.
OPENSCAD VOLTRON FIGURE
OpenSCAD Voltron, Defender of the Thingiverse by MakerBlock
Found on: Thingiverse
Cost: Free
The incredible 17-inch tall, fully articulated Voltron model is pretty complicated, with over 150 individual STL files that need to be printed separately — it is probably too complicated for a lot of us. Thankfully there is another option, this less detailed but still fun poseable Voltron figure that was designed entirely in OpenSCAD. While this is by no means the same as the other highly detailed replica it is still a fun model to print.
It’s also really impressive that this model was made entirely in OpenSCAD.
It should go without saying that each lion should be printed in corresponding colors, but there is no reason that you can’t print everything in the same filament and then paint the model. Despite being such a simple model it does have a surprising range of movement, and most of the parts can be printed support-free. No glue will be needed to assemble Voltron as everything should snap together, but you may need to do some filing to get everything to fit properly.
FOUR-LEGGED ROBOT
Bionic Robot by MyMiniFactory
Found on: MyMiniFactory
Cost: Free
This great four-legged robot figure was designed by the Modio3D team, who were purchased by Autodesk and turned into the Tinkerplay team. It stands as a pretty impressive testament to how detailed 3D models designed in the easy to use 3D modelling program can be. For a program designed to be used by beginners and novices, it is capable of an ton of detail.
The individual parts have been arraigned on two different plates so each one can be printed in a different color, or you can print each part individually and make him your own. The parts were designed support-free, so this should be a pretty easy project for all skill levels.
TRANSFORMING 3D PRINTER
Cupcake Transformer by sideburn
Found on: Thingiverse
Cost: Free
The original Cupcake 3D printer from MakerBot is the machine that is often credited for starting the whole desktop 3D printer craze, and kicking off the 3D printing revolution. What better way to pay tribute to the Cupcake than turning it into a transformable robot?
The transforming Cupcake parts are all simple to print and shouldn’t be difficult, however the model does need a few screws to hold everything together. Thankfully there is a link to full assembly and printing instructions. The model can be printed in standard PLA, although it might be a fun nod to the original Cupcake to print this with a wood filament.
GMC MECH WARRIOR
GMC by MyMiniFactory
Found on: MyMiniFactory
Cost: Free
This GMC mech figure is probably the most complicated build on this list, at least in terms of 3D printing and post-processing. The parts all have complex geometries, so lots of supports will be needed and a lot of post-processing work is going to have to be done. But it is really hard to argue with the final results.
The STL files have been assembled in four different plates that were designed for a 10 x 10 inch printing bed, so if your printer is smaller be prepared to separate those plates. This model is probably better served being painted, not only will it help bring out some of the cool details, but it will help disguise any stepping or striation on the individual parts.
VIKING ASSAULT MECH FROM STARCRAFT 2
Transforming Viking by Jooxoe3i
Found on: Thingiverse
Cost: Free
The video game Starcraft 2 is one of the most revered PC games of all time, and still played all over the world.
There are a ton of great spaceships and character designs in the game, but the Viking is probably one of the most iconic. And it isn’t hard to see why, everyone loves a spaceship that transforms into an assault mech.
This great 3D printable version is fully transformable between both modes, and all of the limbs have a pretty wide range of movement. The parts will print without any supports, and most of them can be snapped together. There are a few steps for some of the joints however, but the designer has included assembly instructions to make everything easier.
BEQUI JOINTED ROBOT
BeQui, Jointed Robot by bqLabs
Found on: Thingiverse
Cost: Free
The BeQui robot was also designed by Sonia Verdú (for bqLabs) and shares a lot in common with his cousin the Jointed Robot model that kicked off our list. However BeQui has several differences that are pretty noticeable. The limbs have all been redesigned, making him much more poseable, and he can even be used to hold up a smartphone.
However with the new design came parts that are a little more complicated to print and assemble. The first Jointed Robot should be a warm-up for taking on this more complicated project. But the end result will be worth the extra effort, and BeQui will be a much more polished version.
Check out this video of BeQui being assembled:
Thanks again for reading, I hope that I found you a fun 3D printing project to spend your weekend on. If you have made, or will make, any of these great models please feel free to share your makes with me, I love to see what you’re working on.

ImprimaLAB creates amazing 3D printed action figures from the
movies12/16/2015
For those who are crazy about Chappie, the robot cop who became a gangster, there is good news: now the file for creating a figure on the 3D printer has been added to the public access library.
And although such a toy Chappie cannot pronounce his catchphrase "I'm Chappie" or shout out any rudeness, as in the film directed by Neill Blomkamp, which was released on screens in March of this year, the figure remains recognizable and strikingly similar.
It was created by Brazilian designer Pedro Augusto Coelho using 3D design software Rhinoceros. The figure consists of six parts: a robot head, upper torso, two forearms and two arms. Its size is 21 cm, and it is printed on 3D printer with a resolution of 0.2 mm for the greatest detail of the final product. The process of creation took about a day. The current 3D Printable Bust of Chappie is available at pinshape.com. However, according to the author, work on improving the figurine is still ongoing. The plans are to make it bigger and add moving elements, such as a head and ears.
Pedro Augusto Coelho has been a longtime 3D designer and printer, founded ImprimaLAB and creates busts of characters from other films. For example, the Immortal Joe mask model from Mad Max: Fury Road, which is also available on the site, as well as Mace Windu's 3D lightsaber model and the Zombie Hulk figure, which was hand-painted after printing.
Koelho detailed the process of creating and printing the Zombie Hulk. Design based on 3D scanned figure of a character in motion, which the author found on the Thingiverse site, and later processed and modified using Zbrush and Sculptris. After that, just the Hulk turned into a zombie Hulk. Koelho printed the model, splitting it into two parts (torso and legs), using a Makerbot Replicator 2x using black ABS plastic. The two parts of the figurine were printed at 0.1mm resolution in 24 and 22 hours, respectively.
After printing, they were glued together, sanded and prepared for further painting, which was carried out with a spray gun and by hand, strictly following the model created in Sculptris.
Pedro Augusto Coelho graduated from Universidade do Vale do Itajaí in Brazil, where he studied industrial design. But he also gained experience with 3D design and printing techniques while in Canada at the Igloo VFX animation studio and at the Irish Institute of Technology in Dublin.
The ImprimaLAB service was founded in 2014, its main activities are: working with FDM 3D printers , as well as services for creating prototypes, layouts and other models using 3D technologies.
This isn't the first time Chappie has been mentioned in the same sentence as 3D printing. Technology played a major role in the making of the film itself. Director Blomkamp worked with Imagine Engine and Weta Workshop not only to create 3D models of complex droids, but also to 3D print 19 Chappie robots that were used in the making of the film.

Photopolymer printing in various formats is in great demand in the field of high-speed production of various blanks.
3D printing with a photopolymer produces the highest detail of any object. Not only a special computer program helps in this, but also polymer resins applied in thin layers, which harden well under the action of laser beams or UV radiation. Resin applications
For projects that have a 3d model, or are just planned, design engineers will develop the necessary programs and select the right photopolymer. In practice, SLA or DLP printing is most often used, a feature of which is high accuracy. The presence of layouts, in the form of samples, greatly facilitates the work with objects that have complex geometry.
This includes factory-made industrial parts, jewelry and medical products. The order received for work is processed by special programs and editors, carefully checked, and only then they go to work.
Photopolymers are smooth plastic objects. Most often, acrylic is used for their manufacture. Printing with photopolymers occurs using a 3d printer.
Each printing device has its own settings in microns (from 16), which create an accurate image. Simultaneously with the application of the thinnest layers of polymers, a support material in the form of a gel is applied. More

3D printers print layers of 3D blanks. 3D printing is made from one or more liquid or solid materials in accordance with specified sizes and shapes (CAD). During printing, physical or chemical processes of hardening or melting occur. Typical materials used in 3D printers are plastics, resins, ceramics, and metals.

The popularity of 3D printers does not fade from the moment this production is launched. Widespread use is explained very simply: you can get exclusive things in a matter of minutes, the most important thing is to create a 3d project.
The printer can print goods for children, clothes, interior items, tools and other things from different materials. 3D printing is a manufacturing process in which a 3D printer manages to print a three-dimensional part by applying several layers of a selected material. For production, a developed 3d model is required. The scope of use is multifaceted: toys for children, home accessories, dishes, door handles, mobile phone cases, shelves and coasters for kitchens are printed on a 3D printer. Anything can be printed on a 3d printer. Read more

Processing of 3d products is used to give an attractive appearance to the product, to create a glossy sheen. Different solutions can be used depending on the material from which the product is made.
For details, you can not carry out finishing processing, since the appearance of the goods does not play a big role. The appearance of products printed on a 3D printer directly depends on the technique and processing methods used. The surface of the products can be smooth or ribbed. And if the appearance is practically not important for details, when creating decorative elements, it is necessary that they be perfectly smooth and even. In order to make products attractive, post-processing is used. Below we describe several types of equipment that are used to process materials, depending on the type of product, textures and their sizes.
Chemical post-processing of 3D models
This is the most popular method for processing plastic products. Due to timely work performed, the product acquires a glossy sheen, and its edges look natural. The most important thing is to choose the right time for processing so as not to spoil the appearance. For cleaning, the following textures are most often used:Read more

Laser material processing is a production that is used in various fields.
Thanks to the automated operation of the equipment, it is possible to quickly and accurately perform many works with materials of any thermal conductivity. Thanks to scientific and technological progress, it is possible to improve the processing of various materials. Today, a laser is used for this, after the touch of which the textures change beyond recognition. There are many reasons why laser processing of various materials is in demand. We will talk about them below.
Why laser processing is so popular
Different methods are used to process materials, but the laser deserves special attention. Below we describe why this production has not lost its relevance for several decades.
Fully automated process
In today's 21st century, many people want to move away from manual labor and work on special equipment. And laser processing completely falls under these parameters: the whole process is fully automated, you only need to set the necessary parameters.
