3D Printed Inline-4 Cylinder – FULLY Working Model!

While 3D printing has been around for a while in concept, it seems like only recently the technology has been falling into the laps of the general public and they have managed to make some major headway, creating some real life mechanisms with these complex printers.

Folks have been going above and beyond to show off their abilities with machines like this and this time, we check out Engineering Explained as they dive into a 3D printed engine that is incredibly detail oriented that you’re going to want to get a good and close look at as they take us through a detailed tour to explain exactly how realistic this thing actually is as all of the parts that are made from scratch are brought together to build one cohesive and functioning unit.

Check out the entire engine that has been manufactured from scratch thanks to the help of a 3D printer that the YouTube channel uses to break down exactly how an inline four cylinder engine works and the benefits and drawbacks to such a layout. There are lots of pros and cons to think about when you’re picking out your engine and this information will have you one step closer to deciding if you picked out the right layout or not.

Check out the video below that shows the 3D printed masterpiece as it is assembled to form a precise miniaturized rendition of the 22RE, an engine that might be found in a Toyota Tacoma or possibly a 4Runner. With displays like this one that simulates a real world situation while crossing all of the t’s and dotting the i’s, it leads you to wonder exactly what they will think of next? Be sure to tell us about this complete detailed engine layout that’s explained like only the Engineering Explained channel could!
