Meet the Carbon M1 Super Fast 3D Printer
Watch this complex object get 3D printed in less than 15 minutes. Sean and Norm visit Carbon, the makers of the M1 3D printer, to get a demo of this new super fast 3D printing technology working in real-time. We chat with Carbon’s VP of Product, Kirk Phelps, to learn how the CLIP 3D printing tech works, and why it’s more than just about really fast prints.

What a week. From the passing of cultural icons like Nichelle Nichols and Bill Russell to the chaos around the Batgirl movie, we could take a breath to process major news as it broke from minute to minute. We discuss our hopes for the future of HBO Max and DC, get pumped for Andor, and get an extended return of A Moment of Science!

That is super cool. The flexible prints were pretty amazing.
wonderful sales pitch
Get a feeling light and oxygen is important to this process…
If anyone is curious, the two patents they have are the following:
http://www.google.com/patents/WO2014126837A2 – Interesting one
http://www.google.com/patents/WO2014126834A3
All pulled from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_Liquid_Interface_Production
I found the figures from the Science paper last year pretty interesting too.

I can only imagine the cost savings of having a few of these printers around the world to make parts for things as opposed to building warehouses. I bet they are expensive printers but on the other hand cheaper than a million dollar warehouse. This will change everything in the equipment support business.
That’s a bummer we probably won’t see this technology until the patents expire.
US$40,000 per year, minimum 3 year term, plus accessories and consumables.

I think we’ll be waiting a while for the prosumer version.
Depending on the stuff you’re making, the ROI could be enormous. Companies like Shapeways cost a relative fortune to have things printed. The cost of that CE resin, though…
Excellent interview. The deeper level of tech and science in these discussion is very exciting. Keep up the great work.
Scurr This is an idea I had a couple years ago when the 3D printers just started getting popular. I work in autobody and we’re constantly ordering parts. Alot of them plastic. Clips, brackets, shrouds, etc. Instead of having a clip bin that has to be kept stocked or having a brand new part on back order because its the current model year there could be a 3d printer like this one in our shop with a licensing fee for each print. I could potentially be much faster and more cost effective for the consumer and the manufacturer.
