It's two big compartments with no baffles

72 hours?? That’s it?? It took me 1/3 of that time to print an 8 inch tall eiffel tower!

Keep up the great work!

Large benchy plz

banda werin

That is no benchy. When this would be reddit you would get a downvote :)

The potential is exciting! As you can even print double-hull, custom boats, relatively cheap. I totally see the final product being reinforced with fiberglass and perhaps structural points created where you could add wood or metal reinforcements, for big boats. Not to mention some AI-created multi-compartment hull designs! Even a custom designs with multiple rooms, electric and water pipe conduits, sail and solar panel mounting points, etc... This could potentially open up doors to some affordable boat housing and recreational boats!

"But what have you done for me lately?"

Kudos to U of Maine, BUT... is this printer a commercial product, or a custom one-off, built totally by grad students??? I mean the rails and gantry look to be off-the-shelf... what about the higher-tech portions?

As a member of Naples Maine Marine Safety Patrol we would love to have one of University of Maine’s 3D boats as one of our patrol boats and put it through its paces. It’s actually a perfect size to patrol with on our lakes, ponds and rivers.

Is this waterproof? Water's pretty watery, and this thing is printed layer by layer. Miss 1mm of a layer and you have a leaky boat. That's before vibrations, fatigue, salt water... So, awesome print, but does it work?

Poor vi

Can i custom design a boat to be 3D printed?

Has anybody considered testing it in real Salt water , perhaps they will see the erosion of the body over a short time as well as the micro fragments that will enter the water and into marine life . At best,this might make a good mold for a better suited material ?

what is the resolution of that printer?

การก่อสร้างด้วยไฟเบ้อกลาส จะเปิดโอกาศให้ราคาการก่อสร้างสะพานลดลงมากกว่าคอนกรีตอัดแรงหรือไม่ครับ?.

Ah Yes, that excavator will fit perfectly in my backpack. :) Also... First?

Now THAT's a Benchy!

Maybe put these things anywhere else besides an area that legit feeds the world with sea food. Clean energy shouldn’t have to destroy sustainable food. Most re**rded idea. Plus, what happened to the dangers of petroleum in our waters from plastics???? Wind mills leak gallons of petroleum into the ocean everyday. So now all the ocean water people swim in has to first pass through a petroleum field?! Bunch of dumb a**es

I think we are looking at the future of boat building. This allows for very sturdy shapes with lots of internal cavities that make the product basically unsinkable.

Next steep, print a frigate

Possibly the most badly filmed reveal video ever made. I hope their boats are better than their videos.

Only 72 hours? I'm currently printing something that is going to take well over 100 hours LOL

Dr. Habib Dagher mentions LEED; however, Envision is the framework used for bridges and civil infrastructure. LEED is used for buildings

Lifted up tracks at 4 sides it'll 3D print a higher rise all level 10-200 glorious floors and elevator shaft vvvvv vvvv take tracks for new EV motors cogged under platform and above.

It's going any 20000 colour also 100% any perfect fraction % aluminium humbrol or aluminium Melted inks/paints resins from heated powder or and UV cured inks/resins heated glue and wood pulp or wood ground dust nanoparticle and each Metal or and wood Plastics/Plastics polycarbonate and other thing touch lighter tougher polymer/composite it's a hell of a coincidence what 2 -10 longer Aircraft hanger/oblong factory names makes a boat H Massive 3D premier printer at least 4-5 years I have times dated earlier Where u get paid???

A boat ??? You've done that purposely suck am egg factory size H 3D printer machine buy it for any unit big enough to place inside suck an egg . There's more to it quicker faster giving man a job without robots printer taking his wages

What company made this printer

Massive props to the team of people that built this machine. Only slightly sad that the boat wasn't a Benchy! LOL. Maybe some weight distribution magic could help make that happen.

You ar seen in this Video that Safety Rules are not getting really attention. The yellow Band doesn't protect the People standing in the Middle of the Working field of the Printer.

What are those yellow snakes for?

The layer adhesion is wrong should be bottom to top. Thats what cura suggested🤷

set one more record for the world largest benchy!!!

Thank you for the interview! Very interesting :)

I suspect the boat manufacturers especially multihulls are seriously looking into this to cut costs.. especially labor. They can probably cut out half their workforce with accuracy, while maintaining quality and cutting down the lengthy time to build one. They are probably thinking about how to utilize materials such as traditional fiberglass to extreme materials such as carbon fiber and beyond to be incorporated into a 3D build. More than likely, they will 3D print many large/complex parts while still using labor to hand assemble them and slowly 3D print whole ships as they refine their techniques and where it makes sense to do so. Imagine a multihull is almost the same price as a monohull, that would be a game changer.

Now print me an Azimut S8 and take my money.

But is it food safe..

At least $50k in filament...lul

wow so how much is it??? can it build 64ft catamaran?

Now if only they can 3d print plastic or carbon fiber houses that are light and can be easily moved from one area to another.

0,40 mm Nozzle? 😄

Good to know I am not the only one using supports..

AND??

Beautiful machine! Excited to see what you learn about printing composites tooling. So much potential!

may not be viable for a final product, but probably good idea for making master plug for mould making.

when are you actually gonna take it on the open water, instead of in a swimming pool with some baby waves?

i had to watch twice, cuz for the first time, is was watchig how the position of the tubes were changeing... whats wrong with me ? x"D

I LIKE !

I do wonder about the bridging profile of this machine.
