Carbon today announced its next-gen M-Series 3D printers based on DLS technology.
The new M3 and the M3 Max printers boast faster printing, a more straightforward print experience, expanded design space and a more consistent surface finish, according to Carbon.
Carbon said a 4K light engine enables a doubling of the build area with the same pixel size and density, and there is a wide range of high-performance materials.
“With these next-generation printers — combined with our Design Engine software and Carbon DLS materials — design teams across business verticals can create high-quality prototypes with end-use performance quicker and more efficiently than ever before,” Phil DeSimone, Carbon’s chief product and business development officer, said in a news release. “And once the product development is complete, Carbon’s platform enables companies to move to production quickly and efficiently anywhere in the world. We believe this new generation of Carbon DLS technology will empower more collaboration and help to revolutionize how products are designed and made.”
DeSimone, in a separate news release, mentioned the potential for dental labs: “This next generation of printers — combined with a wide range of fully validated materials — allows labs to create high-quality dental products quicker and more efficiently than ever before.”
The M3 printer is now available for order and shipping. In addition, the M3 Max printer is available for ordering, with expected shipping in the second half of 2022.
