I find my 3d printer is more reliable then my inkjet

@@Steph.98114 ikr

What if the ink refills for the printer didn't cost more per ounce than human blood. Yeah that's a fact

@@brettking8663 just but a printer with a ciss system, or modify your's.

I just bought a printer. To replace all six ink cartridges costs £250~300, depending where you shop.

I never understood those ads... who wouldn't download a car? Also, someone has made a car from 3D printed parts.

TheMohawkNinja It was some blowhard whinging about pirating MP3s or something. "You wouldn't download a car!" Well, I never could before. I might now.

4 years later, .....progress????

​@@MaxMisterC 4 years later again. did you finally google it yourself?

There are a few machines that work exactly like this for just a few hundred dollar. Google "Anycubic photon".

not all over consumer wise bc its like $40k a yr subscription based

Cost of production is way to high

You can buy these now, but really good sls printers are fairly expensive. I dream that in a few years, someone will come up with the Ender 3 of SLS, cheap but high quality.

International Space Station they are not sls printers thats a dlp one. Sls uses a powdered material (usually nylon) while DLP and SLA printers use resin that it's cured by uv light or a laser. Dlp printers uses a dsplay projector and the definition of the part is going to be the one of the pixels of the display. Dlp prints in voxels while sla and sls print with a laser so there is more definition in the part but they use different mediums

but this one is continuous

LMAO true

So... 3D printing is 1D printing over and over again?.. like.. infinite lines, with no depth, nor width, just to make.. a ball?

And 1D printing is 0D printing over and over again. XD

Technically yes, because you are printing lines over and over again, row after row on a piece of paper to form 2d shapes. Correction: Actually, not technically. It _is_ 1d printing over and over again

No. 2D printing is 2D printing. It prints 2D layers. If it would be 1D printing, then it would only print lines from left to right, like traditional old printers used to do. 3D printers move their head in two directions on each layer, so it's 2D printing over and over again.

Relatable

Are we there yet?

Same

Same.....

To be fair you can actually buy the resin printers now.

No they won’t, they have to profit from it first. Then when something better comes out it’ll be open source

@@privatebryan1924 Prusa Research and The Blender Foundation would like to have a word with you...

@@ericlotze7724 I’m happy if they do already but I don’t know much about them

Used that a few times didn't he...

CoiledDrake Yes, but it REALLY is. You have no idea.

GuyWithAnAmazingHat If only it were record-changing as well.

Actually its not that different from laser-epoxy type 3D printing that existed for over 20 years. The main concept is the same. But the method is quite different. Laser epoxy uses one or a couple of beems of laser, so its relatively slow laser-epoxy go from the top and lower the stuff down, i don´t really know what diffrents it make, but this look way cooler. Laser-epoxy is really limited in the viscosity of the stuff. Laser-epoxy, because it uses laser, its not really continuous. But in theory, they are kind of the same.... I´m just waiting to they can do polymer that is sensitive to different wave length so they can print colored objects... or objects of different materials.

This changes everything in 3d printing..

World of Warcraft?

well next step would be 3d printers that can use metals but hoooooo boy i bet those are going to be regulated

I would really like to see multi channel printer. Can have plastic, rubber and acrylic in the same tub, or CMYK... or both. Just have like 10 projectors with different wavelength could print 10 material at the same time. Can have tintid windows, colored rubber, transparent stuff and so on. Also butting lenses at the projector could change the size of the printed object from a few cm up to a full meter or beyond with the same printer. A 1080P projector could make a 1 bye 0.5 meter object with a resolution of 0.5mm, or a 10 by 5 cm object with a resolution of 0,05mm. Also the small object could be printed in seconds while the same projector still can print a lot larger product but it will take hours.

phantomshotgun Those actually already exist. The problem with those is that they are soo expensive to make and it is just not practical (yet?) compared t o the traditional metal manufacturing

phantomshotgun It is already there and used commercially too. They print from very fine metal powder instead of liquid, and laser beam to form the shapes from it.

so 5 to 10 more years? :(

Depends, if that wonder window can be made by them or can be substituted by something else. Provided that we could have this next year. Granted, not a consumer product since that can be a patent issue, but we could have the hart of this machine, the window. The rest is a projector, standard printer parts and a bit of thinkering.

kistuszek This is not an a completely accurate perspective. The projector has refined optics, the formulations of the resins has been tuned. The window is the break through but the music it plays comes about because of the carefully tuned orchestra around it.

+gus bisbal i guess chinese golden age has done.. they have done all the innovations back then with simple inventions that become a pacemaker now..

That Guy you made my day :3

haha nice one on a serious note, I guess it'd be kinda difficult since things like RAM aren't made out of just *one* material... ... until we wait for some genius to invent multi-material 3D manufacturing!!!

@@SreenikethanI In fact this already exists. (oh wait, ... that was sarcasm, right? :D)

But you already can downloadmoreram.com/ That's not a lie, it does download more ram for you.

@@DamTheFam yeah that's currently the most feasible option. Both my laptops have 128 GiB ram now

I can finally download a Quad-Core Processor. And It won't be a joke!

if you put it that way 3d is a misnomer as it's just a bunch of 2ds layered over each other------____--------.

Sbeast Actually, even "2D" printing has 3 dimensions, at least if you talk about something involving materials like ink. It is thin, but it has a height.

It also grows in the Z axis, so technically it is 3D.. still, have my like kind sir. (Y)

Sbeast Everything is 3D. There is no such thing as 2D.

Same haven't heard from him in a while......actually never to be exact

LTT is taking over the internet

Resin. Printers.

Is still worth it, because is better not only faster :P

It's already been 100x more expensive. 3D Printers started in the $15-40k range. They started off being very specialized and very expensive. Advancements and competition in the field have driven the price down. Unfortunately, while printers have been made more economical, their speed hasn't changed much. This new method could change the print speed by an order of magnitude or two. Sure, it will likely drive the price up for this new style of printer. But with enough time, that could likely be made economical to the average person as well.

how so? only one moving axis... and just a digital projector, no laser... should be extremely cheap a few years from now, very simple printer. just needs to be mass produced...

It already happened. It's called 2010.

NixCM you seem 100 times more stupid

The best part is that no one laughed.

r/woooosh to the entire stage

Hmmmm are you sampling your own product

Got it.😉

And closed sourced so noone can update this slightly for something better.

You just did not consider what the machine would cost that this one is replacing. After all if it was not worth it nobody would buy it.

+kistuszek You just did not consider that noone is buying it. Becouse noone can buy it. You can rent it only.

Dupy, Dziary, Muscle Cary. Money is money, if it does not make sense there wont be customers. No matter if bought or rented.

A world needs more buyers like you.

+Dupy, Dziary, Muscle Cary. no we dont lol :D

High school 8nterns at NIST solved that problem a number of years ago: fuse the layers by baking the printed object. Time & temp vary according to materials used to print layers.

+Youthro Forget 100x faster, this is 100x more expensive!

You have to pay $40 000 every year?

Steve Villacruz It's like a subscription.

+$10,000 instalation

Does that include a service contract

+Maave - Yes and yes.

Man, you cannot answer an OR question with AND x_x You are correct though. lol

Maave it was a sales pitch disguised as a TED talk.

Maave I enjoyed this TED Talk sales pitch. A+. It's like a Steve Jobs presentation. They are a talk and a sales pitch. But you feel pretty good about it after it's done and no, I do not own any Apple products

Maave i mean, what product of his was he pitching?

but how expensive will the material and the vat bottom be?

eberbacher007 once mass produced pretty cheap i assume

Joe G.P. there are quite a number of regual 3d printers out there and the material hasn´t gotten cheaper in years. It will go the same route as printer ink and just get more and more expensive I guess.

Like any printer, they make the money off the ink/print material. Printers themselves can be dirt cheep. :e

eberbacher007 They are referring to the material that forms the bottom of the resin vat not the resin. At the moment you can get 1kg of resin for about $50 which considering the lack of waste (other than supports) is actually quite good. 3D printer filament is not exactly massively expensive either.

fabts4 1.5X here 😅

1.25x here

:) good one.

This is about the future, not about a hand powered blender.

LOLed! :D

I remember back in 1980 when Pepperidge Farm used to taste good

just the public dont use it

The patent has not expired. FDM and SLA printers only became cheap at a consumer level because back in 2009 the patent expired. Same thing for vaping, once the patent expired, tons of big and small companies developed their own versions.

+Shahir Muktasid not anymore haha

+Lloyd Cabahug maybe a ballon'dor

Update your comment

ohhhhhh snap

antsolja still prohibitively expensive, there anywhere from £3500- upwards, and the liquid print material is on average £150 per canister

TheycallmeNade Its mostly to improve the quality and cost efficiency of items, or atleast thats what its aim to be

TheycallmeNade prototyping is about the only thing I can think of

3D printing is important in emergencies, remote locations and especially for objects with complex structures. Ultimately 3D printing is what will bring us one step closer to molecular printing. You could take common atoms like hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen etc. and assemble them to get exactly the material properties you need. Why wouldnt you want to print a healthy dinner and a drink in a few seconds? Or medicine when you need it.

The PhD 8n charge of setting national standards at NIST for 3D printing in USA said 3D printing in necessary for space missions. Even ships st sea tend to carry half their cargo capacity in spare parts. Space missions cannot carry all the spare parts they might need. Thus, taking a 3 D printer, materials to print with & download patterns as needed works for that. National Geographic has published on the topic of our young sun being in a heating up phase, not a cooling down phase--such that Earth is going to be within the too hot ring in the solar system. That is why science/ engineering projects are focused on colonizing Mars. M3dicine says human bones can't stay strong for the trip. Future prediction computer programs continually predict cultural failures that never happen--because people work on solving problems. Methods are not perfect or fast, but human beings don't adjust well to rapid change continually.

Better politician? Hmmm a robot, the iGov? X)

the hard thing would be to get something to print. With 2d Printing its easy. I have an awesome picture, I scan it, I print it. But with 3d its much more complicated. I have all the time little bits I would need to replace that aren´t avaiilable online (because companies want to sell you new products or expensive repair kits) -door handles (right now I have to choose between replacing all of them in the kitchen or rely on luck to find the right one since they are out of production) - little cogwheels in the washing machine that aren´t available anywhere -plastic covering of toilet pump which was cracked by a friend who repaired the pump but stepped on the plastic covering part. - This list continoues on an on and could be rounded up with the phrase "any small thing made out of plastic that doesn´t need a lot structural integrity (I wouldn´t trust a printed ladder or a printed closet hanging The thing is that I wouldn´t be available right know, to program these things so that a 3d printer could do it.

akumabito2008 Well, here's the use for you: instead of 100 cubic meters of space used to manufacture each part, you have 10 cubic meters. (or 2-3, in the case of this tiny thing he show cased, but it's not really of...viable size for industrial works) Currently, parts require fairly huge and complex sets of machinery. And to get a new design, you're going to have to completely replace entire sections of the manufacturing process. With 3d printing (particularly with this new type), it's possible to go from digital to physical with an incredibly low amount of hardware, compared to today. As well, these tend to be incredibly general purpose, but still do most everything pretty darned well, so you're not going to have to cast a new mold if you are off by 57 nanometers, you'd just adjust the specs in the code.

akumabito2008 well for the old 3D printing neither do i, it's to expensive and you can't really use the part (it's to weak), but if this can print finished products then i do, of course this would need to be able to "print" carbon fiber or metals to be truly useful, no more running down to home depo for a few nuts and bolts

"I still don't think I have an immediate use for a 3D printer at home". That's exactly what was said about calculators and computers. What if you had a 3D printer that could print out whole working devices such as blenders or cooking utensils or replacement parts for stuff you already own. Check out Cory Doctorow's book *_Makers_*. It's a story about the near future where all kinds of these technologies are used by ordinary people to improve their lives. Fiction? At the moment. But fun to think about.

Joe G.P. Metal nuts and bolts would be quite a long shot I guess. I wouldn´t risk that, especially since if something happens, your insurance won´t cover it. But there are all sorts of plastic in our lives that are not under much stress and could easily be printed.

where van I get one?

+Elijah Clay well...you can't. the project is still in progress. there is another company however that makes the same type of printers but waaaaay waaaaaaaay more expensive than you expect. So if you want a 3d printer just go for an ultimaker V2(costly) or a robo 3d R1+(cheap) depending on you budget.

+Mohamed Berrada thanks

+Elijah Clay anytime :)

+Mohamed Berrada We will release a desk-top 3D printer with affordable price.

www.carbon3d.com/hardware/

It is, just search CLIP printers or resin printers. it has for a while, more than a year i believe

I mean... They've already been around for like a year, not from these guys and way cheaper.

If we can find a oxygen permeable transparent plastic then we can modify DLP 3d printer on the cheap for 10x-100x the speed :)))

It only took high school interns at NIST some years ago to solve the horizontal weakness problem of 3D additive technology: bake the resulting piece to fuse layers well. Time & temp vary with the materials used to print.

We probably already have stuff way better than this

Problem: melting the mould without damaging the plastic

they already were a year before your comment. this guy is selling HIS version of something already on the market. it's just a DLP/SLA printer.... and they go from $400 on the cheap to $3K on the top (form labs)

wndw2000 I'm waiting for 3 years already!

digibluh no it's not just it. It's different

I think it has to do with justifying internet censorship and prosecution of internet trolls. It's also another feminist propaganda video shaming men for their opinions and pushing the female victim narrative just like every other mainstream media outlet.

Nameless Chief "shaming men" Oh my god, stop. It has nothing to do with shaming men, it's about a woman that was the butt of all jokes for years, nobody can deny that. TED probably turned off comments to stop people from trolling her, and I don't think they should have done it either, but Jesus Christ, please stop turning everything into "teh poor menz" you fucking baby. 1st world problems at its finest.

I agree that she would certainly be trolled but the question of "Why Monica now?" still bothers me. And while protecting her from trolls is a good thing, it also silences any questions about her timely reappearance.

Yeah really

Look up Carbon 3d

I found that in 2 minutes

First i finished the video

*StarTrekReplicator has entered the thread*

Sadly we live in the past half of the stuff we use today is outdated yet people think it's amazing and futuristic lol

I'd just like to point out that once upon a time, computers were viewed in much the same way- too expensive, not widely available, too bulky and so on. Now, I'm writing a reply to someone probably halfway around the world on a computer the size of a small softcover book, with hundreds or thousands of times the processing power of early computer tech. This wouldn't be possible without those first computers to get the ball rolling. I personally see being able to 3d print an object much faster as similar to when computers began to go from room sized monstrosities to the home pc. It's not an end game, but a game changer? I think so.

gamepro94z thats about a fuel efficient as you can get. Electricity is still a form a fuel, and creating a lighter rigid product would mean less electricity is required to drive it forward.

tushay

gamepro94z Tesla needs to pay attention to this tech if they wanna make their Model 3 affordable. The Model S requires an aluminum body to get its impressive mileage, which is why it costs so much.

gamepro94z tesla uses fuel.... it runs on coal. ITs just that the coal is burned at a power plant not in the car. Its more efficient than burning the fuel in a car for sure but the tesla CERTAINLY runs on fuel

+Ddub1083 Aswell as power plants having higher fuel efficiency, fossil fuels don't account for all energy generation. The price of solar is on a very consistent trend downwards also where it will eventually undercut oil and coal significantly. Fossil fuels have a strong hold now but they'll eventually become not just unhealthy and impractical but economically nonsensical. /rantover

You should be on top lol

while thats hilarious its not true XD you'd still need the materials needed to download the ram so not free

Except we had a show called space 1999 in the 1980s but we still don't have a moon base... Technology progressives a lot slower than we think

@@aecsummer I get your point, but moon base and space-related projects were essentially halted due to having no immediate benefits. Satellites give GPS and other information, but moon base isn't going to be useful to a country that has to prepare potential foreign invasion (which, in fact, is every country in the world). 3D printing on the other hand, can provide shortcuts to many steps in manufacturing or lower the cost of production. Now THAT'S something that people can invest in.

yeah okay sure

leafbelly so does ink at a fraction of the size

@@z2baggenziz it seems we've been 3D printing all along

Yes. But what he meant is that the technique used is 2D printing which is true; most 3d printers print using 2D algorithms multiple times. Basically they divide the model into multiple layers with each layer having a very thin depth and print them on top of each other using 2D printing.
