@Barnacules The surfaces feel smooth to the touch. Itβs really hard to take pictures of matte grey stuff so we needed to turn up the lighting, making it look more grainy than irl.
Custom laser optics is part of what allows us to build a high efficiency optical path and preserve the precious laser power ππ

This is the secret behind the super precise galvos that move the laser beam around. A flap connected to the motor shaft partially covers 2 pairs of photodiodes. An LED shines light from the top and depending on the rotorβs position, each pair receive a different amount of light.
Starting a company really makes you appreciate everything in the modern world. Took us 6 hours to cut and glue all the stupid foam packaging π€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ
Anyway, printers heading to your favourite content creators βοΈβοΈ

Donβt buy a crypto mining rig to heat your house, buy a fleet of SLS 3D printers instead ππ
(Average power draw per printer when printing is 450W)

158 parts in 1 print, 24 hours printing + 15 minutes of post processing in media blaster = $0.45/part.
If you run just a single SLS printer 5 days a week, thatβs >40000 parts per year ππ
