I really don't see this replacing 3D printing, but I can see it integrating into 3D printing to vastly improve it. Imagine no more wasted materials, effort, or time dealing with supports when your build plate could morph to support your model as it prints.
this will only (possibly) replace traditional mold making. The pins would bot allow for overhangs or other complex geometry. That said; molds for injection molding are insanely expensive, and no matter the price of this machine, this could replace that. Im curious about how time effective this process is though. 20min to make the shape on the machine then ?min for soft mold, then ?min for new outer mold, then ?min after that, or is that the last mold to be used for production? That part confuses me in this application.
Hey! thanks for your question. The PolyMorphic tools can be used to make production moulds. You can also use it to make moulds. The mould that makes the moulds. It is all very application dependant.
@@eatthedead1ify thanks! We're ready for launch tomorrow at 10am! You will be able to see the machine in action on our YT premier here: th-cam.com/video/J2q0kJkSlRE/w-d-xo.html let us know what you think!
This is a very interesting technique, I think there is so much rapid prototyping potential with this technology. Very interested to see developments with this!

The pin is the z axis of 3 d printer the slicing code or g code gives it that information from slicing the STL files. Since it's a finite pin the resolution would not be as good as laser sintering where the laser is much smaller then pin diameter.

@@fyous From what I've seen so far it seems to outperform other prototyping methods in many departments. From what I understand the intended temperature range is around that of molten plastics, I'm curious to see if the mold can tolerate molten metal such as zamak and aluminum. If it can the crystalline structure of the molten metal can be manipulated effectively "hot working, it" as it cools. The pin configuration in 1 axis remarkable and cool, but why stop there, make it 3axis in the shape of a cube.

Brilliant idea 👌
the pins at 0:30 dont look well aligned. theres many holes. I doubt that it's at micron accuracy
Biggest drawback is its only useful for one side(open ended) moulding with no undercuts, splits etc. basically anything that is hemispherical

@fyous Incredible! Thank you for the reply. Good luck changing the game!

@@fyous And thank you for the heads up. I'll definitely check it out! Already set to notify me.
In what applications does this beat 3d printing?
custom moulds
aint no way yall named a company f you(s):sob:
huh,this is great for quickly making templates for molds
Amazing tech. Imagine when pin resolution goes 4K and above (thousands of pins per inch) thousand pins!!! Congratulations
That would be ridiculously expensive.

Hopefully you are right! Can you think of any applications?

this combined with a silicone skin that automatically "vacumm forms" on top of the shape would be PERFECT (getting rid of the pattern in the surfaces)
Then, what would it be useful for? Got any ideas for applications?
@ a two halves mold done with fyous (having the silicone skin) can injection cast composites without the pinholes marks of the fyous
what the pins are from?
How does the pin knows how high to go? And how does it stays there? 🤔

@@MarcelYT16 what?

@@FLORIDIANMILLIONAIRE Close, but no cigar
@@FLORIDIANMILLIONAIRE So every single pin is individually mechanically controlled for elevation on the z axis?
I've been working on something similar, with a different approach this is cool.
Magnets would be a cool way to do it

But, it is For you's...
i imagined this one time
very cool

Invented? It’s pin matrix tooling. First patent was filed in the late 1800s 😂
Nah f yous is an awful name for a product that has potential
So wait...this is legit? And you gave it this name?
This has to be a troll.
use a magnetic iron/oil liquid, arranged by magnetism instead of pins, this solution will make it smooth and endlessly hi-res
MIT technology copy.
very cool
