A promise to a 100x faster and printing without layers! Here comes the Carbon3D as announced at TED just recently.

According to interviews DeSimmone has given in the months before the unveil Carbon3D’s process, years in the making, is up to 100x faster than other 3D printing processes on the market.

Bold claims like this are not unusual when new machinery is launched but rarely has somebody so distinguished in the relevant fields come to the fore with a technology that could shake up the entire industry. DeSimone is a member of all three of the U.S. national academies: the Institute of Medicine, the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, and the U.S. National Academy of Engineering he was also the winner of the über prestigious Lemelson-MIT $500,000 first prize for his invention PRINT Technology, used to manufacture nanocarries in medicine, undoubtedly serving as a platform for this latest.

Today is the day Carbon3D comes out of stealth and potentially shakes up an entire industry. DeSimone and the team have developed an entirely new polymer-based 3D printing process called Continuous Liquid Interface Production technology (CLIP), which harnesses light and oxygen to continuously grow objects from a pool of resin instead of printing layer-by-layer.

Carbon3D’s process has not only impressed the select few, who have had sneak peaks, the TED organisers but more importantly venture capitalists Sequoia Captial and Silver Lake Kraftwerk, who led the start-up’s Series A financing in 2013 and Series B in 2014 respectively.
