3D Printer
Any Rapid Shape/Straumann 3D printer users out there?

[QUOTE="tyjthomas, post: 343015, member: 15395"] I wanted to get other user’s opinion of the Rapid Shape Printer. I was leaning towards purchasing an Asiga 3D printer, but as I’ve researched Rapid Shape D30+ (Straumann rebranded as p30+) it seems like a better printer and more complete streamlined workflow. The printer has 2x the accuracy, still is open source 385 nm DLP, automatic separation of the prints from the buildplates, larger build plate, and wash and cure units all communicate together wirelessly for which settings to use. The wash will do the dirty and clean wash on its own and the cure does its curing under vacuum - all of this making for a simple, straight forward, quick, and clean processing. With the better accuracy and open source and easier processing, it seems like a no-brainer as a whole workflow. However, it seems there are so many people with Asiga’s attesting to their quality…wondering if I am missing anything. I want to make removable dies, models and everything else that goes with the 3D printers. I’ve had the Formlabs 3B and its been a bit frustrating… Just wondering if anyone else had the Rapid Shape or Straumann 3D printers and what their experience has been or if they had wished they had gone with another printer brand, like Asiga. Also any way to compare the speed of printing of the two? [/QUOTE]
