'Anycubic,' the 3D printing brand based in Shenzhen, China, has unveiled the 'Photon Nex' futuristic 3D printer. This 3D printer has a geometric, minimalist outer shell that opens to reveal the full printer when a button is pressed. The marketing shots for this printer place it in outer space with suns and plants in the background to draw attention to its sci-fi inspiration. The design of the Photon Nex is inspired by the 'sleeper ships' from 'Star Trek.'
The Photon Nex is equipped with Anycubic's 'Auto Resin Filler,' which allows the device to automatically recycle up to 95% of wasted resin into future projects. The most notable feature of the Photon Nex, though, is its printing speed. The printer boasts a printing rate of 1,600mm/h, meaning it is nearly 15 times faster than its competitors.
