Unix Technology touts its Slash 3D printer as 50X faster than others
The makers of a 3D desktop printer that's garnering attention as a Kickstarter crowdfunding project claim the machine is 50 times faster than other 3D desktop printers.
The Slash 3D printer is a stereolithography (SLA) machine, meaning it uses a basin filled with photosensitive resin that's hardened into shapes layer by layer using a concentrated light source.
The 3D printer, from startup Uniz Technology LLC in San Diego, is available for $1,200 to Early Bird backers. At that price, the Slash 3D printer is the least expensive SLA machine available -- even cheaper than XYZprinting's Nobel 1.0, which retails for $1,500.
