Prusa Core One solved 1 big problem, obsolescence. First look at FORMNEXT

[@NoizieWorks]

I'm gonna call it, this needs to be the new standard. Let's hope other brands see this and keep older systems from getting obsolete by providing an upgrade path. Still needs to be tested but it's a great first try.

[@TheOneAndOnlySatan]

@@NoizieWorks its like the k1 🤣🤣

[@ErzbergAdventures]

i love the new lay out. But i wish they had gone to a more standard square build plate shape. Gives more orientations options for max size prints then. But i think they did it to just keep using the existing parts from other printers. I just hope they don't keep going down this play it safe path with little forward movement otherwise they will end up like Nissan

[@hammerfallen12345]

Is this maybe a 6h build or will there be option for that? Maybe i missed if there an was option fro that. Might not buy it if there is 6h build in this machine...done that and it's sadly stoneage to deliver to spend 6h. Understand you have to put 1-2 hours but not more

[@NikosChalaris]

I’ve just watched the video and wow, the Prusa Core One looks absolutely amazing! The design is sleek, and it seems like it’s got all the features you could want in a 3D printer. It’s definitely got that high-quality, professional look, and I’m super impressed by how well it’s put together. Can’t wait to get my hands on it!

[@Radhiant]

Yeah! Has such a solid reputation for reliability and innovation, so I know this printer will be a joy to use. I’m especially excited about exploring its advanced features and testing its capabilities to see how far I can push my ideas. It’s going to be an amazing experience, and I can’t wait to dive in!

[@Buckwheeat]

Been waiting for this style for a long time and ordered one on day one. No China machines in my farm.

[@rockman1942]

always love prusa, they even willing sent me a screw for free (i lost it during installing MK3s+)

[@ScytheNoire]

I will be ordering the MK4S to CoreOne conversion kit as soon as they make it available. They need their next XL version to have an enclosure like this, and then it would be worth looking at buying.

[@linhungsamify]

the XL is too expensive IMO at 5000$ for 5 toolheads. The price for CoreOne makes more sense though

[@NoizieWorks]

5k is definitely a steep price, hope to see at least a 50%cut in the next 2-3 years but... not very likely seeing the oldtimer mk4s pricing

Thanks for the correction

[@tomlanger7658]

Really great video, guys! It’s a shame the Core One printer wasn’t running during the shoot-would’ve been awesome to see it in action. I’m actually thinking about getting one. You guys really nailed the details, and it looks amazing. Great job, keep it up! 👌

[@NoizieWorks]

If i remember correctly all these printers where display only. Only the XL printers where running. And thank you! I might get sampled late Q1 👀 very excited

@3:14 Good obversation! No graphite sleeves like the Plus 4! I'm making my order tomorrow for this one.

[@ScytheNoire]

Prusa has been using ball bearings for many years now. It's all about longevity with them.

[@NoizieWorks]

Great to know and thanks for sharing!

[@LilApe]

Prusa printers are built for longevity and their reliability. Using consumable graphite bushings like bambu defeats that purpose.

The pressed steel frame looks cheap. Prusa just doesn't have the manufacturing capabilities as China. This isn't an advance in 3d printer machine. I really want to know where the innovation is on this machine? Idk, they need to more features.

Prusa always will have a bridge to sell you.

[@ItsRyanStudios]

Bambu is an objectively better printer. But they will never be able to match the Repairability, Modifiability and Privacy of Prusa That's why I'm choosing a MK4 or Core One over the P1S/X1c, even despite them being 2x the price.

[@Carg123]

@@AwwwSnapperz We're not using KZbin as an instrument of manufacturing physical things. There are of course, nuances and different contexts of privacy.

[@AwwwSnapperz]

@@ItsRyanStudios Fair enough you have levels to your privacy tolerance. What I find interesting you are OK with paying more, and even modifying a printer but turning off wifi or using Lan only after a couple of button pressed is too onerous? Taken from elsewhere. Bambu printers 1. You can print via the cloud 2. You can print offline with SD. 3. You can print with Lan only(local wifi) 4. You can send files via FTP Only 1 out of 4 uses any internet. 5. If you have an X1, X1+ team has custom firmware and a host of other[privacy] features You can update firmware via SD cards on X1C(since Aug 2024] Mk4 and mk4s aren't bad but I fail to see any advantages of them for the price/features especially with the 3 tentpoles of your arguments. The core one is untested and so it's quality, is up in the air Repairability all parts are available with wiki, video instructions. Modification..? This seems like a solution looking for a problem. It"s YOUR modification so you are responsible for it... Privacy see above.

[@AwwwSnapperz]

@@ItsRyanStudios Dude you can choose the level of your privacy on any platform. Yt, reddit lurk only and don't sign in 3d printers. Print offline with sd cards. Or even Lan only mode, works fine over an offline network too. Shop nation runs Bambu print farm offline for over a year. He spends 10's of thousands on new printers and tossed/sold/donated over 30 prusa printers. To say you have an "objectively better printer" then throw out some made up limitation is hilarious.

[@Carg123]

Europe = ball bearings ❤ and 3 Z-axis motors❤. China = graphite sleeves 💩 and 1 Z-axis motor 💩. Say no more.

[@xantrax9359]

When China released CoreXY printer with graphite sleeves and 1 Z-axis motor, Prusa was producing MK3S! Yeah, you are right, Core One really deserve to be compared to 2 years old printer because that's exactly what it is. Outdated printer not even released yet. Just wait what China will release next year as their Gen2 printers...

[@googleslocik]

​@@xantrax9359 Yeah, lot of cope from Prusa fans. Im confused how this printer thats 2 years late to the market is announced ... and wont come out for months yet. The kit isnt even avaible( and while they removed it from the site, i saw it said it wont come out to mid 2025), so the actual price is even larger than then most expensive offering from bambu or lets say the brand new k2.

[@DrWaSaBe]

You are joking right? This is a literal twitch response to quickly try to stay relevant to the Bambu products. It literally is trying to compete with a 2 year old product.

[@almonster2066]

LDO Voron kits are pretty much dead. Why spend $1K for a Voron 2.4 kit when you can get this? Maybe if you really need a 350 cubed but I have one and almost never use the entire print bed! I might just get one for the heck of it.

[@NoizieWorks]

Depends on what you're looking for but for most yes!

[@AlexBerg1]

DIY kits from parts will always have an appeal. Just like Gundam model kits or the like.

[@rad10dog]

Voron printer is "forever" printer that one can turn it into anything and try every new development

[@RenBaiHu]

That's a pretty ignorant statement. LDO kits are, for one, way overpriced. Lots of kits like Formbot or Siboor are just as good and about half the price sometimes. The fact that you can pretty much endlessly customize your Voron and swap out anything in it to suit your needs is also a great thing. The price is just TOO HIGH for this machine and very late in the game. I do believe it looks amazing. It has very nice esthetics and seems to be quite space efficient. Plug and play is good, but Voron Tridents are probably the most crazy printers for speed when fine tuned. The upgrade kit is a joke. Spending over 1k to get the MK4S then another 500 to upgrade it is bad economics. Better off just selling your MK4S (or just keep it) and buying a Core1... If this thing had a HEATED CHAMBER then yah, it would be worth it. Prusa screwd up bad on this. Seems they just don't perform at the batting plate since the MK3s: XL was a mad fail and way overpriced, MK4s was a launch fail also and lots of the community was far from impressed, then this model, which does seem nice, is about 2-3 years late and lacks sought features. Reusing the plates is an understandable marketing move but they should have went to like 300mm on Z to make a noticeable difference.

[@carlosjosejimenezbermudez9255]

@@RenBaiHu Upgrade kits have remained only due to popular demand. A couple of years ago Prusa made a market survey and upgrade kits from MK3 to MK4 were one of the most requested feature when people were asked if it should be prioritized. They themselves expressed surprise at this in a blog post that displayed the results of said survey. I'm not that customer, I don't know who upgrades their machine when the upgrade kit is a few parts away from a full machine. Heck, I even once built a MK3S from a MK2S to MK3 upgrade kit to cut costs instead of upgrading. It wasn't worth it, since I spent the same in the end and I did extra work by getting the missing parts from 3rd party providers, so getting the full kit would have worked better. But they keep making kits like this because someone somewhere does buy them, whether it is to do what I did or not, they do get purchased.

[@OwenJonesCymru]

The Core One looks like a great printer. Not just good, simply great. The one you want to buy if you are serious about the quality of your prints and the versatility of 3D printing, not just generating tons of useless flexi toys to impress the crowd like Bambu and it's fanboys do.

[@AntiVaganza]

No irony nor cherry picking in that statement at all... And no, I don't own either printer. The fanboys on each side are incredibly tedious as you so aptly demonstrated.

[@helixxharpell]

Without a chamber heater and the fact the prusa sales guy kinda balked at printing CF & GF makes this a hard pass for me.

[@nunovicente34]

You don’t need a chamber heater of any sorts to print those filaments. Comercials printers use them because they’re very poorly insulated and lose a lot of heat. On my Voron Trident 300 I can reach 65c chamber temps just with the bed and some fans below it blowing air and recirculating inside the chamber

[@michawasiljew6620]

Bambu feels so outdated now.

[@googleslocik]

How? No heater, lower max print temp than bambu, no filters, no camera, ugly and small display and most importantly ... costs MORE than a x1c with ams. Its good that Prusa isnt so behind anymore, but bambu is releasing a next gen of their printers early next year, no idea how core one is supposed to compete with that.

[@DapperDangus]

I mean, they released their first printer over 2 years ago. 2.5 years before prusa finally dropped this.

[@ErzbergAdventures]

errr no this will feel outdated when the new bambu drops!

[@itsnotlevel2]

This interview was horrible...

[@NoizieWorks]

Trust me when i say, i had A LOT worse on the convention.

[@xantrax9359]

They need to be VERY carefull doing some stupid jokes like "Bambu" Core One. Creality with K2 at least came with dual cameras and closed loop step motors to push this industry forward, where Prusa did nothing but catching up to Bambu printers released 2 years ago. Not impressed at all. And this option of upgreate MK4S to CoreXY just made me laugh! So you can upgreate machine costs like two P1S, at the cost of another P1S to be P1S. Moneywise sounds like very good deal ha ha ha. This is the offer for print farms that wants to replace their Prusa machines, few rich Prusa fanboys and noone else. Waste of money. Don't forget Bambu is already working on their 2nd gen machines, with something above X1C ready to be released soon. And I'm expecting it will be reeeeally interesting machine. Not X1C with Prusa Orange PETG cover.

[@taza99]

for some, bambu is not a reasonable purchase (politics, ethics, you don't want the chinese to copy your cad designs, privacy concerns etc) so for them the core one is literally the best printer out there. I was going to by a P1S until I figured out what kind of business they are doing.

[@xantrax9359]

@@taza99 The last thing that left for companies like Prusa is to create some imaginary enemy and make people fear of it. Ethics? I wish those people who talking about ethics are not having any "Made in China" item at home. Or made in Bangladesh, Pakinstan or Vietnam. Check your towels and T-shirts, you might be surprised. I believe half of those people happily use their iPhones made by Foxxcon where people were jumping from the windows, and big part of Covid they spend sleeping inside the factory on the matresses lying directly on the floor. This is no problem for them, Bambu ethic is. Apple is spying on you. Microsoft, Google and Facebook is spying on you. This is no problem to create CAD designs on machines with their operating systems. Why do you not affraid of some leakage of your designs from companies with hundred of thousand of employees, but you are sure that Bambu will steal them as soon as you send them trough their cloud? If you work for NASA, Lockheed Martin or Thales better not have even chinese alarm clock at home, who knows what chinese alarm clock can do, right? ;) But if you are some average Joe, making designs for living I think you are safe. Bambu is simply not interested in your designs, same as chinese government.

[@drewpd7]

I was as big of a Prusa fan as you could find but once I funded the X1C kickstarter I’ve never even turned my prusas back on. I’m excited to see Prusa make this but to be honest it’s late. I’m not going to buy one because you know Bambu at any minute is going to drop something new sending everyone back to the rear of the bus again. And probably cheaper too.

[@TechnicallyaNomad]

@@drewpd7 I think you’re missing the point of a Prusa. Prusa’s no-log-by-design policy is enough for me to consider paying double or more for a printer that performs the same as a Bambu X1C for the simple fact that I know that my data is safe. To put this into perspective, if Prusa never came out with the Core One, I would happily fork out the money for a $15,000 Vision Miner 22 IDEX for the simple reason that by design, the machine is incapable of logging my data and distributing it to anyone. I’m glad I don’t have to fork out $15,000 since a Core One is less than 1/10 the cost, especially since I don’t presently have the need to print in exotic high temp materials past ABS. Do keep in mind that Bambu’s prices are CCCP and Venture Capital subsidized. Those subsidies can go away and their prices can meet or exceed Prusa’s.

[@DaleCooper12]

Bambu fanboy ha ha. Prusa and Bambu are incomparable. Prusa is way more reliable and quality. You will not get spaghetti out of it, but I saw a lot of it in the case of Bambu. Also, Prusa is not a Chinese product; it is made in Europe-in the Czech Republic. Bambu also has privacy issues, and I really do not want to support China and its communist government when I can choose something much more solid and trustworthy. Of course, quality costs more and it takes a long time to make, but I would rather support European workers who work slower than poorly paid Chinese kids...
