QUESTION: Do the prints appear to have production level quality - such that we could sell a completed print?
@SLS4All8 күн бұрын
Yes, they do. But you can order the print samples and evaluate print quality by yourself. sls4all.com/store/sls4all-sample-kit/

Great work for a DIY technology appropriate to our times, but it is essential to Set the Effective Build Volume to the standard: 220 x 220 x 250 mm adopted by standard consumer FDM printers... the customer base will multiply by a factor of 10 minimum... instead Effective Build Volume for PA12 Nylon: 150 x 150 x 180 mm (4.1 liters) / 5.9 x 5.9 x 7.1 inches (247.2 cubic inches)

Interesting point, but I don't think SLS can be compared as simple as that to the FDM. It is like with the SLA - different technology, different use cases, ...
@studio-naldesign2 ай бұрын
@@SLS4All Hi, ČESKO Thanks for your answers My message just recommends to size the print volume to the same values as those already defined and adopted on the most common FDM printers... it is not very complicated to do, you can, and propose a second model larger by a few mm more to add on some mechanical components of the current SLS4All version, and also define the appropriate parameters for these new dimensions in the SLS slicing software. I am not making comparisons between SLS and FDM 3D printing technologies. The limitations of FDM technologies compared to SLS and SLA are well known by any designer and maker... Anyway. My intention is constructive, in the positive sense. I would be interested in a SLS4All model with a print volume of 220x220x250mm Many designers and makers design their object creations based on the 220x220x250mm manufacturing volume that has become standard thanks to consumer FDM 3D printers... So it becomes very easy to adopt a new SLS4All machine for commercial production. It's all good for your superb product, SLS4All, which can very easily be integrated into 3D manufacturing workshops already equipped with standard FDM machines

This is awesome and a ton of effort clearly went into it. One small thing I noticed is the ball bearing solution for the Z wobble... I came up with a similar design awhile back for a large FDM machine and underestimated how quickly the contact surface can wear down. I had to use printed parts so the balls were resting on the magnets directly but sealed with grease to try mitigating this. Your metal plate (presumably aluminum) will be better but allowing the 4 balls to rest on a lower friction material, guide pins (or possibly chamfered edges?) instead of the flat plane might work better in the long run. Just my two cents, thanks again for all this!
@SLS4All3 ай бұрын
Thank you! As for the z-wobble solution. I use one trick - all the weight/forces doesn't go through the balls, but through the long screws that are there. So the contact surfaces are loaded minimally and it doesn't matter what load is acutely in the chambers.

I have a Formlabs Fuse 1. What a piece of crap. It fails a lot, I have lost thousands of euros in powder. The support is just "try again. Oh, it worked? No problem then...". I have replaced broken parts (they charged me 400 euros for a regular stepper motor, where the only thing wrong was a broken 1 cent pipe splice). Consumables are crazy expensive. They charge 5000 euro a year in service agreement (which I ended because why pay when they have no interest at all in fixing problems -- when the agreement says on site free service). So my plan had been to develop my own. Mostly just to have Formlabs buying outright because with their crappy shit of a product they can't handle competitors. But when I see how well you have done, I have cancelled the plan. You single handedly have built a better printer with better software. You should now get investors and go big. Crush the evil F. I wish you good luck. If you want any input from a serial entrepreneur of hardware consumer products, please let me know. I'll share experiences with you that might help you get this manufactured and sold in large quantities. Everything I can do to help crush the scammers from the US. The Formlabs is totally closed. Can't use other powders. Well, today, I got a firmware update that opens up for other powders. It cost €14,500 to enable. I'm not kidding. And the customer doesn't get ANY info during the printing process that can help diagnose the failed prints. You even made superior software!! I'm so extremely impressed.
