Was really impressed with this machine when i saw it at Rapid last year, the method they use with the common plate as the base of the printer that everything attaches to is just so creative and works so well, awesome to see how they get built. also want!
The value that Joel and Team 3DPN adds to this community is priceless. The ability to cover a wide range of companies and 3D Printing machines is beneficial to the community as well as interact in an actual build is pretty awesome. It's appreciated! Thank you.
Very impressive. I don't get jealous much, but am jealous of the winner of this beauty! Build in Canada with Canadian precision and quality... gotta love it!
Ok, after watching this the mechanical design is stunning. It looks outstanding. But by far the most impressive thing was seeing Joel put his bodyweight into torqueing the press nuts a over a foot away from the main plate and seeing no flex despite the rods mounted with a single point. I need to get one of these.
The rigidity of this frame would blow our extrusion frames out the water. So much rigidity that input shaper might not even be necessary. Giant rails vs mgn9? Precision ball screws vs belts? No contest! 40lbs of 6061 madness tying it all together...insane.
FYI, these retaining compounds / adhesives are anerobic. They will not dry until assembled. Once the parts are fitted together, oxygen is squeezed out and the adhesive starts reacting. You didn't need to rush it.
The Pantheon HS3 is such a beautiful machine. I know it was designed with function in mind every step of the way but I find the end product very aesthetically pleasing to me for some reason. Kinda reminds me of brutalist architecture.
Those look like Teknic steppers, pretty pricey to buy. They have built in error detection and can be programmed using the Teknic app. Have one of their NEMA 34 on the Z axis of my milling machine, it's a beast.
There are a handful of your vids that have given me envy . Not only do I envy the winner of this 3d printer, but I also envy that you got to build it. It looked like such a fun project.
I loved every second of this video ! Sucks the floating frame is patented, could've been a step forward in consumer machines. Is anything else patented ? Would be awesome if we could integrate some specs
Everyone saying its "over Engineered" are the people that are used to "under engineered" cheap chines printers and dont understand or have seen what a properly Engineered real industrial grade printer looks like... This thing is awesome!
Joel, now you know how real CNC machine tools (lathes and mills) are built. Except they are much heavier. Some day, you should visit the IMTS show in Chicago. The next event should be in the fall of 2024. Be sure to wear your best walking shoes and allow two full days. Cheers.
Tbh I don’t understand why they are glueing the Z-shafts… they already use a bolt to retain the shaft so they just could have made a face on one of the sides of the rod and a corresponding one on the already millet Aluminium part and just tighten them. By choosing the right tolerances and stuff you don’t have to rely on glue and is even easier to repair if something happens. The roads are already machined so by milling a (I think it’s called like that in English) key face you’re not only making it more reliable but also easily repairable.
The build reminds me of a MakerGear printer. I think their Ultra One is very similar to this except it is also an IDEX. (I think MakerGear is barely holding on to staying in business.) This Pantheon is such a massive printer for such a relatively small build volume and not actively heated, which seems like a real missed opportunity. I would be worried about the BTT board but I guess the QC has improved enough. I honestly don't see much of difference between this printer and say, a Voron with similar build volume, enclosed, and around a quarter of the price with top-spec'd BOM with lots of QOL improvements (or less than a fifth of the price with standard BOM). I guess the money is spent on the R&D and labor. Still, at the end of the day, what are you really getting for your 10-grand investment (serious question)?
considering this will be outdated in 2 years I hope they thought about rolling out upgrade kits. that means disassembly should be possible on some parts
Yes, of course everything is better. But each individual part, e.g. the Y motor, probably costs a much as a whole hobbyist level 3D printer And the loctite 638 cure time is not 60 seconds. The time depends on the material, the temperature, the gap size, etc. It's more like 5 to 30 minutes. And afaik like other loctites that time really only starts counting when the parts are mated (no air)
@@flixquadrat6337 that's also not 60 seconds. Just try it. Like I said, afaik like other loctites, it starts working once it's deprived from air, i.e. when it's in position.
When I was a kid a local pharmacy chain sold a facial cleaner tha was mostly acetone.. lIke you could wash your face with soap, then run a cotton swab with the stuff over your face and it would still come off dirty... cleanest my face ever was.
A bit more detail than "You don't want to get acetone on your hands, wear gloves" would be great, because you effectively just said "You don't want to get nail polish remover on your hands."

@@3DPrintingNerd Thank for the reply... when I go to the link all I see is "Pantheon's HS3 Printer starts at $9,999 USD" is that the price minus the $5,000.00?
@@PantheonDesign I've been a machine designer for 20 years and I can appreciate the way your printer is built. I'm interested and look forward to when it's more flexible in what it can print as I print various different materials.
I have to ask... I'm thinking about a new 3D printer.. I'm doubting between this one or the flashgorge adventure 4.. wich would you recommend ? It's just for home use printing fun stuff like miniatures, practical stuff decoration etc... of is there a better printer in that price ?hope to see your reply
Wait, you're looking at buying either a sub $1000 printer versus a $10K printer? The HS3 is definitely beyond your use case for the printer. Take a look at the P1P.
