World’s first pressure controlled 3D printer launches on Kickstarter

Thanks Superdave.

That's really frustrating a link was posted but looks like it didn't come through. System won't let me insert a link.

Here's the url for all - check it out:)

Thanks wire10ga for posting the link - much appreciated.

This revolutionary 3D printer fills the gap between low-end hobbyist machines with limited resolution and high-end printers that cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Elemental's key points to note are:

•    Simple design that is attractive and functional
•    Multiple printing modes with resin only or resin suspension
•    Quiet when printing and simple to use
•    Minimal calibration required
•    Patent pending technology
•    Reduced dependency on support structures

System specification include:

•    Very large build area for SLA - up to 200mm x 200mm x 200mm (7.87in x 7.87in x 7.87in)
•    Z control accurate to 1 micron
•    24-bit XY control resolution (variable through software)
•    Variable output 405nm laser
•    Pressure control of layer height
•    Stand-alone SD-card printing
•    Bluetooth functionality

You can get more information on the printer at the kickstarted link.
