# Ultra-Speedy 3D Printers The Slash Plus UDP 3D Printer Creates Projects in Mere Minutes By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2018-11-13 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slash-plus-udp References: [gadgetify](http://www.gadgetify.com/slash-plus-udp-fastest-3d-printer/) & [uniz](https://www.uniz.com/us_en/page/3d-printers-slashplus-udp) One of the biggest hindrances of 3D printers is the extended time they take to complete projects, so the Slash Plus UDP has been developed as a solution that changes this with [ultra-fast printing capabilities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/centauri). The printer is capable of printing at speeds up to 1,200mm per hour and is outfitted with uni-directional peel technology that creates layer-less print jobs with a [very high resolution](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanoone-green). The accompanying software is compatible for use with Windows and [Mac](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epson-3) systems, and also supports OBJ, STL, UNIZ, AMF and 3MF file formats to make it ideal for makers of all kinds. The Slash Plus UDP 3D printer offers a sizable space for printing, but is still compact enough for placement on any workstation. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Ultra-speedy 3D Printing:** The development of ultra-fast 3D printing capabilities can greatly reduce the production time of 3D printed projects. - **Uni-directional Peel Technology:** Uni-directional peel technology that creates layer-less print jobs with high resolution can pave the way for new printing methods and applications. - **Multi-format Software Compatibility:** Software that supports multiple file formats can make 3D printing more accessible to a wider range of users with different technical backgrounds. ### Where This Applies - **Manufacturing:** The manufacturing industry can adopt ultra-speedy 3D printing technology to improve production efficiency and speed up the prototyping process. - **Product Design:** Product designers can explore new possibilities with the use of uni-directional peel technology, creating unique and high-resolution designs not previously possible with traditional 3D printing methods. - **Education:** Multi-format software compatibility can make 3D printing more accessible to schools and students, allowing for a wider range of creative projects and learning opportunities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [High-Speed 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blade-1.md) - [Intelligent Ultra-Fast 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elegoo-fdm-neptune-4.md) - [Ultra-Accurate Resin 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rocket-1-resin-3d-printer.md) - [Highly Precise 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/precise-3d-printer.md) - [Efficient 3D Printing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/color-3d-printers.md) - [Ultra-Speedy 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anycubic-kobra-2.md) - [Speedy High-Capacity 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phrozen-arco.md) - [Easier-to-Use 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimaker-s6.md) - [Ultra-Fast Precision 3D Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ankermake.md)
