3D Printing 100x Faster

When we think about 3D printing, it is essentially 2D printing over and over again. This process takes anywhere from 6-24 hours. But that has changed. Onstage at TED2015, Joseph DeSimone unveils a bold new 3D printing technique, from Carbon3D, that’s 25 to 100 times faster, and creates smooth, strong parts. Carbon3D uses the CLIP system. CLIP — Continuous Liquid Interface Production — is a breakthrough technology that grows parts instead of printing them layer by layer. CLIP allows businesses to produce commercial quality parts at game-changing speeds, creating a clear path to 3D manufacturing.

Instead of using spool threading, the Carbon 3D printer uses UV light to trigger polymerization to create the 3D objects. Could it finally help to fulfill the tremendous promise of fast 3D printing?
