This is as fast as I've seen for PLA while still retaining good quality. And he probably could go faster with more powerful motors or more of them.
Honestly, there’s going to be a hard peak to how fast a 3D printer can go, because physics. Unless we start running prints in a vacuum and start tuning local gravity….
There will always be limits to how fast you can go. But as long as the average printer is not even close to whats doable there is room for improvement.
That’s much much nicer. I’ve been looking at the bamboo x1c, its speed and quality is pretty amazing right out the box.
