# Luxury 3D Printers Pollen's Advanced 3D Printer Pam Can Print Multi Materials Simultaneously By Alyson Wyers | Published 2016-06-30 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/advanced-3d-printer References: [techcrunch](https://techcrunch.com/2016/06/30/pam-is-an-expensive-sophisticated-multi-material-3d-printer-from-pollen/) & [pollen.am](https://www.pollen.am/) This advanced 3D printer is capable of printing using multiple materials. From Pollen, Pam is a more expensive, luxury 3D printer targeted at "demanding professionals" that boasts a sleek and sophisticated design as well as the ability to mix four different materials at the same time. This means you can create bespoke objects with different properties, and at a very high quality printing resolution of 40 μ. The fully automated advanced 3D printer has auto calibration, live error control and cloud control for smart, hands-free support. Available in April 2017, Pam pre orders are starting at $9000, but is cost-effective to use. Although this is a niche product, it could be an example of how 3D printing can be better utilized professionally and not "for the Kickstarter audience," as TechCrunch puts it. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/photography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multi-material 3D Printing:** The trend of multi-material 3D printing offers disruptive innovation opportunities to create bespoke objects with different properties. - **Luxury 3D Printing:** The trend of luxury 3D printing presents disruptive innovation opportunities to target demanding professionals with sleek and sophisticated designs. - **Automated 3D Printing:** The trend of automated 3D printing provides disruptive innovation opportunities for hands-free, smart and cloud-controlled support. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Manufacturing:** The manufacturing industry can leverage multi-material 3D printing to create custom objects with enhanced functionality. - **Design:** The design industry can utilize luxury 3D printing to produce high-end and visually appealing products for demanding professionals. - **Technology:** The technology industry can benefit from automated 3D printing for efficient and error-controlled production processes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Seven-Material 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/j850-pro.md) - [Cutting-Edge 3D-Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snapmaker-u1.md) - [12-Nozzle Desktop 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palette-300.md) - [Personal Manufacturing 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bambu-lab-h2d.md) - [Efficient 3D Printing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/color-3d-printers.md) - [Multi-Material 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multimaterial-3d-printer.md) - [Quick Set-Up 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bambu-lab-p1s.md) - [AI-Powered Multifilament 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multifilament-3d-printer.md) - [Multi-Head 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prusa-xl-multi-material.md)
