Such an expensive machine, and it looks like it still had a layer shift....

[@oberender64]

I can't see layerschift. Only a relativ low quality print model because auf the vertical lines.

[@Imdor]

@@oberender64 You can clearly see the line going through the part on the table and while he's holding it.

[@oberender64]

​@@ImdorI would say thats a extrusion problem.

[@Imdor]

@@oberender64 Does it really matter when it's such an expensive machine and a 2 day print?

[@user-nwwioxy]

are you sure it's not just a filament hair ?

[@user-dg7sy8cz3b]

Another great video! Thanks Barely recognized Titan! Lol I like the music at the end, nice touch!

[@skenzyme81]

Would love to see the Titan Boyz use this boss 3D printer to leap into complex *metal casting* to achieve even more amazing geometries.

[@skenzyme81]

If casting doesn't excite you, look up how jet turbine blades are made. Single crystal baby.

[@adamhayes2528]

What a beast of a machine this is! Really engaging and cool video Trevor and Jason!

[@Thepriest39]

We have a Stratasys 450 that can do 15 different types of material. Slightly smaller print area but they also make a larger machine. 3D printing is great but gets expensive for the filament.

[@a_lot5163]

The Fortus is a tank, things never die.

[@shaniegust1225]

Definitely looking for more on this. That’s a gorgeous printer.

[@nathanthomas8184]

"Flower duet" great ending that makes me want to engineer something 1million Subs people TITANS are the BEST

[@donniehinske]

Awesome video Trevor and Jason! That printer is a beast!

[@nicksetudeposturale270]

Oh man I love this, endless possibilities to design, prototype and create 🥊

[@AlanBWarrick]

Why are you measuring filament in CC's when the rest of the industry measures in Kg?

[@GrulbGL]

i think they sell volume instead of mass.

[@GrulbGL]

and thank god it isnt in CI, that would be simply atrocious.

[@Sara-TOC]

That’s a cool machine! I look forward to seeing more from the FX20. 🔥

[@kayzejones]

its kinda crazy to think how fast 3d-printing as a functional method of manufacturing parts has grown. i first started on a early version of a CR-10 printer in 2017 making things (and mostly balls of stringy failures) for fun and now its a functional tech that you can buy and run on a industrial scale. Its expensive to get into professional 3d-printing, but its an investment for the future, so its quite cheap in comparison to traditional manufacturing.

[@oberender64]

3d Printing in the industrie is nearly 40 years old. 1987 released 3D-Systems their first printer for industrial use.

[@kayzejones]

@@oberender64 Well, you learn something new everyday.

[@lucas_alexandreBR]

...and this, my friend, is what I mean when I tell that part is amazing!

[@velvia7880]

Look into Organic or Tree supports. Uses less plastic and is both easier and more satisfying to remove.

[@mapsofbeing5937]

does the printer have integrated atmosphere/humidity control? Does it have a continuous dessicator or anything? I'd hate to load a thousand dollars of high tech filament, come back a week later and find it waterlogged

[@trevorgoforth8963]

Each material bay has a basket that holds desiccant bags that absorb any moisture.

[@wafflecart]

wtf is CC of material?! Use KG like everyone else does..

[@faxxzc]

at 4:20 it looks like there´s layer delamination at the right flange

[@tcolesen]

Hard to tell if it's separation or actually overextrusion at that layer. There's a similar artifact on the left flange. I'm going with overextrusion.

[@faxxzc]

@@tcolesen random overextrusion? I don’t think so, because its only on the outermost edges of the part. Overextrusion could also be in the middle

[@tcolesen]

@@faxxzc I wouldn't call it random. In my own experience if there's an "extrusion inconsistency" there can be localized overextrusion caused by the extruder doing something different in an area from one layer to the next. i.e. printing in differing directions in adjacent layers because of a feature present on one of those layers but not the other.

[@Bigsbiesmith]

Didn't print a benchy, this is sad lol. This machine is awesome.

[@Progs420]

Metal and Nylon 3d printers are sooo amazing! Boom!

[@christophervillalpando5865]

Nice Work Trevor!

[@SLA-3D]

Yep, that piece is messed up. It’s not a layer shift, rather shrinkage of sections of the part due to high printing temperature of Nylon CF. I print in this material a lot and even with the heated chamber, large pieces tend to shrink about 3% depending on geometry. My theory is that it has to do with the chopped carbon increasing internal stresses in the material.

[@J1GS4W_13]

That part looks like one of the rocket parts we machine at work.

[@timmontano8792]

Love that surface finish. I'd love it even more if I could print out a new stock design for my Umarex Gauntlet PCP air rifle. As it is now, the thing weighs as much as a boat anchor. I think a 3D printed custom stock would drop the weight by about three and a half pounds.

[@christophpoll784]

That is some boss-machine! But i guess also costs a fortune, compared to my hobbyist-anycubic 😂

[@traphimawari7760]

print a car, i dare you

[@markdavis304]

Nice! Great work Trevor

[@Hydrazine1000]

I'm waiting for you guys to dive into WAAM, Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing! Seriously, if you want to 3D print large metal parts, WAAM is the way to go. In Amsterdam they have printed a pedestrian bridge to span a city canal. Open to the public too. Companies have already printed ship propellers and (fully rated and certified) crane hooks too.

[@brianhawk6979]

Is that 2.85 mm filament? what was the layer height on this print?

[@pearlbluesoul]

Lol. StrataSys looking over like “Am I a joke to you?”

[@pronoob8213]

Is there a way to reuse the support material your creating or is this just waste?

[@woutervossebeld4664]

It's waste, some manufacturers allow you to send back scraps to reuse but most don't.

[@oberender64]

There are many different companys which recycle the supports and make an new spool with it. In the 3D Print community its not uncommon to do that by yourself.

[@seventimesman4034]

Must be nice to have a shop where you can get all this technology. Most shops would have to spend 10's of millions to have this stuff.

[@Rimrock300]

So do not be 'most shops'. Be a special shop. Problem solved.

[@FiglioBastardo]

Please get a Meltio M600 laser wire 3d printer! I wanna see what y'all can accomplish with it!

[@Rimrock300]

Please feel free to donate

[@FiglioBastardo]

@@Rimrock300 huh?

[@dRepby]

It's surprising, that with three nozzles, the supports are printed from the same material as the part.

[@victorsoaresdasilva6490]

If I was going to replace my F400 today I wouldn't even consider markforged. Likely go Essentium HSE

[@alejandroaguirre2355]

Id rather have a Peopoly Magneto X for way cheaper than the Markforge machine. And just upgraded the hotend to a pellet extruder or a Goliath hotend that has great flow rate by Mr Simon Vez

[@inserteunnombreapropiado9079]

Why didn't you print an obligatory 3D Benchy :(?

At 03:41 the left support moves !!! Adhesion or warping issue ?

[@oberender64]

Adhesion. It loses contact with the bed.

[@IceCreams62]

@@oberender64 Or adhesion lost for warping

[@ManuelRamcanny]

do 5 axis 3D printers exist? I think that could be the way to remove the need of supports.

[@W4LNUSS]

They do exist

[@davidchanget2563]

Yes they do. They will have one showcased at the Midwest rep-rap festival this coming weekend.

Hello guys. Do you think in the coming years the CNC Machines operators will be replaced by Artificial Intelligence?

[@Ed-AT36]

No, Artificial Intelligence will become a tool that machinists use, similar to CAM software. As for operators, they are getting replaced by robots already.
