    We use both Prusa and Bambu printers at work. Bambu when we need max speed, Prusa when we need precision and reliability. This testing that Prusa does to their own printers really explains why we've had the Prusas for over a year and the Bambus for two months, but the Prusas have never needed maintenance and the Bambus already have problems and frequently fail prints. We use these to prototype for injection molding, so we run them constantly.

    People have been hacking together their own ways to grind down failed prints and extruding them back into filament for years. A company popped up in Germany that let's you send your scraps to them and they will sort and process your scraps. If you send them enough scraps they give you discounts to buy filament from them. More start ups and home made solutions will continue to pop up. Also there are commercial units you can buy off the shelf to do the same thing with but they're prohibitively expensive for the average hobby printer.

Haven't has another printer since but wouldn't touch a prusa even if It fell off a truck into my driveway. I cant remember for sure what model it was, but it was 10 years ago and one of their most popular printers, like over $1,000. I agree it was insanely high resolution and a dream printer for a couple months even with the plate/board warping. But it declined rapidly. I believe my model must of sat in a 120+ degree shipping container for MONTHS, if not years.

    Injection molding at this scale is only for massive manufacturing facilities in the multi-millions. Where as this sort of farm can be managed by one person at the fraction of the cost of a single industrial injection molder. 3D printing is very cheap, reliable, and designs can be modified on the fly. Injection molding is the complete opposite of all of those points.

It will also do it infinitely faster with most of the parts you're seeing on the 3D printer being spit out by an injection molder every 10 to 15 seconds. We are currently 3D printing parts at our plant which is an under 20 million dollar gross company but we have an injection molding machine we just got and we're going to be switching over to that.

    I think the big problem is that they are using a print farm for the wrong reasons (they have massive quantities not low production). It makes it extremely difficult to be picky about print quality. I guess the argument could be "but Bambulabs get perfect (or near enough) print quality all the time" and I think the thing is that they have a ton of older mk3s printers still on the farm and if they had all Mk4 printers the quality would look much better than it currently does.

  • @raymonschepers994

    To make mass production a company always needs to make a compromise between quality and quantity. If they print a part that is for example using 23.36m of filament and this is taking just over 9 hours to produce (at first it is the prototype, the used numbers I took are just for an example ) .. The part will be printed and several different people will judge the process and the overall quality of the process and the product. Then both will be pushed and stretched to the physical limits to cut down on the printing time as much as possible. Way different from how we would be doing this at home. This editing process goes as far as adapting the actual shape of the product just to push the process. This repeats itself in approximately the first 10 or 25 pieces to fine tune and eventually the printing time will be reduced drastically. As a result the quality of the product goes from nice to okay to acceptable to barely reasonable and finally getting to the point where it remains to meet the required dimensions plus specifications which have used minimum effort and material that it needs for the part to function. Perhaps the printing time will remain 3 hours while the final amount of material/filament used will only take 18.79m That came from 9 hours to melt and extrude 23.36m. (Purely fictional reference numbers) This is why most 3d printed items on the Prusa printer kits (actually on most brands it’s just the same thing as with Prusa) are not as great in terms of looks and texture as could be.

    @@raymonschepers994 that might be it but i dont think it is very smart to do it that way. saying "our printers are so great they produce more of itself" is a great way to show the quality of your product. but if the parts look like this then its not really a proof of quality in my opinion. and comparing prusa (as much as i like their philosophy) to other companies doesnt work anymore. no other company charges so much for respective features, except for "made in europe" and great customer support. back to the printed parts: i think it was a great way to promote their printers some years ago. but today everyone knows what printers are capable of. look at vorons for example. if you get printed parts through the official voron programm (PIF) you get really really really well printed parts for really cheap. sure voron is non-commercial but it should be possible for a company like prusa to match the quality of a open source community.

Still crazy cheap per mold und way, way cheaper and faster per piece. They understood that finally with some Mini parts.

    I love it, but there is absolutely no way that having printers make profile covers is a good idea lol. There is literally no need for the cover, and it could be extruded for a fraction of the price. Except, it doesn't need to be reinvented - the boys in Beijing will sell you it at pences per metre...

  • @EyebrowsMahoney

    @EyebrowsMahoney

    Ай бұрын

    They're deliberately designed to do so. Regular printers cannot print PC-CF (at least successfully without modification). Printing Polycarbonate is difficult because it requires extremely high temperatures (~290-310c hotend and ~110-135c bed temperature as well as generally needing an enclosure to print properly), is extremely hygroscopic (readily absorbs moisture from the air making it hydrolyse which makes it weak and print even more poorly), and is extremely difficult to print in general and tends to be picky about its print surface. Adding CF to it makes it even worse as it now requires hardened nozzles and filament pathways that will not wear as quickly because Carbon Fiber is extremely abrasive and can quickly destroy nozzles and hotends not designed for it. This is also worsened by its high print temperature for PC, requiring specially hardened nozzles.

    "they can make changes to the parts" saying that about a printer design that remained largely unchanged for the last 5 years is actually ridiculous. Is it cool? Yeah maybe, but the parts will never be as strong and accurate as injection moulded parts and its also more expensive because its so much slower and less efficient. Prusa people are paying more to get less.

  • @AshBashVids

    @AshBashVids

    Ай бұрын

    The individual parts get constantly revised over time - this would make injection moulding prohibitively expensive, as you would have to make new moulds all the time. Not really ideal if your aim is to make 3D printer kits and keeping it as open source as possible. Also, the parts definitely last because they're designed for the material. I've fixed many a MK3 and own a MK4, never had an issue with broken 3D printed parts.

    That's because they ALREADY HAVE injection molding for more than years, for parts that make sense. The parts they print are subject to updates and they do have a track of the parts that change, if you see the R* number. You are paying for support and warranty. Not plastic bits, any garage company can make plastic bits.
