A lot of people are complaining about the Bambu section of the video but it’s whole purpose was to build up excitement. Everyone already knows everything about the X1C and P series printers so showing them off would be a waste of time and like other large companies very little of their production would be in that office and rightfully so, Bambu doesn’t want to give anything about their new products away until their announcement.
yeah i agbeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
My perception of Chinese made products in terms of quality was dramatically shifted back during the early days of DJI. I was one of the early adopters of their phantom series drones, and I could immediately tell this Chinese company knew exactly what they were doing. Ever since, I’ve kept an open mind regarding Chinese products, as it’s obvious that China truly does have the capability of exporting quality goods.
Excellent! Thanks for mentioning the 1 hour drives to each facility, I would have assumed everything was in one city. Good for Bambu for being tight lipped - they are cutting edge and Should not be giving away everything for "Free". Let's not forget that Bambu Lab began as kickstarter campaign where they raised $50 million in funding.
Early Reprap culture in Europe and US: LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE MAKING! ALL THE DESIGNS ARE OPEN SOURCE! Current 3D printing company culture in China: You can't even know who our engineering team are. We make you blur everything.
You packed a lot of info into this video. I'm new to 3d printing and I have learned a lot. I love watching how things are made. The factory tours are fascinating.
Siboor was the most interesting part for me. They weren't on my radar as a brand but I'll definitely consider them in the future. Great series, thanks.
Securely want to see more like this. But also much longer. Plus I still can’t find the longer video of the Anycubic wash and cure max. Any info on release date?
Such a great video man, WELL DONE! Seeing all that cool stuff at AnyCubic was fascinating. China or the Chinese people are doing such great work and that’s wonderful to see. I’m blown away by this video. You done so good!
Another great video Jonathan, such quality, you deserve to have hundreds thousands of subs, with videos of this quality i can see it going up very steeply soon, also just found out your podcast the infill podcast, great guests
Token "so how many floors did the Bambu IP lawyers have?" 😂 Great video, I need to go back and watch the previous one. It's cool to see behind the scenes at so many places. I'm encouraged to hear Sovol is working on a corexy of some kind given their good reviews recently of their bed slingers. I don't want to spend a week putting together a voron and for various reasons bambu and creality corexy units are a no go for me, it's good to see other manufacturers are working in the same space on products that are on the way.
Great series. It's amazing that all these companies are in the same area. I took the train from Hong Kong to Guangzhou some years ago so I must have gone through the area. Your skills in photography and organization really shine. Thanks for sharing.
@@thenextlayer I guess when your products rock the market to the extent theirs did they don't need to say or show anything , their products are doing all the talking...
@@supersensory5189 also all their competitors will be trying to find out as much as they can about Bambu’s new products, probably to the extent of analysing the whole video just to see things accidentally in the back ground.
My sister has lived in China for something like 8 years. She likes it, obviously. There are problems with the government, some of which would be major blockers for me. There are huge problems with the government where I live in the USA as well, of course. I don't think there's any doubt that most people in China are just good normal people doing their best.
The Sovol filament drier is fantastic. I'm like you - living in an area with 60%-95% average humidity results in wet filament after only a day or two out of the bag. The Sovol unit gets things down to around 18% and having a seal around the enclosure, that level stays there for a number of days. I now even dry my IIID Max PLA+ when working on a prototype.
It is so nice of you to take us with your journey! I am so excited to see the new Kobra series and I am that surprised that they test their machines and components in so many different ways so well! I wish you a good further time in china, and I am looking forward for the next Videos and of course, for the 20th of September! I am just a little Bambu fanboy, but I would love to see their new things!
Hi jonathan. Happy to see you on this type of contenet I am Your Student from superhuman acadamy. your contents are great as always keep It Up Teacher. And Also I Need Some Help On 3D Printing If You Can Only.
Can hardly wait for Sep 20th when Bambu Lab reveals the A1 printer. I'm hoping that it'll be between $300-$500usd. Even if it's a bed slinger, I'm sure it will be able to print multi color and at fast speeds.
im just kidding because you had it blurred, like the joke where people say they cant see your legs when you are wearing cammo pants.. I know im lame@@thenextlayer
A key missing step with how those boards work is, its a sandwich of multiple "planes" or layers separated by insulators. Often a "ground plane" that is all zero volts and another that is full volts. They add some metal all around the holes to connect the circuitry on the two outside surfaces to the inside planes.
Great video, loved the touring of the different facilities and just see how things are built and tested. A bit more technical depth with interesting details or stats on what they are doing would be nice. If picking one segment, it would be PCB Way, have used them in the past and also have a history of working with an ODM PC motherboard manufacturer, so that brought back some good memories.
Thank you for another Wonderful video. Will share on my Socials.Would Love to have you Join in on my weekly Maker chats, The Jerry Show. Sat 1 pm pacific, RU-vid and Twitch.Keep the Awesome videos coming.
If you want the top of the line get the X1C for sure. Either way I’d really appreciate if you use my link when you purchase it helps to support the channel quite a bit. Https://jle.vi/Bambu
Your content is very good and I am sure that you will reach multiple hundreds k of subscribers. That tour was awesome too and very interesting. Only issue I would kindly like to point out is sometimes I got "I am so cool" vibe from the way that you are passing the information. It is only my impression and I don't wan't to be rude. I also don't think that everyone has to be super humble or must share this bottom-of-the-joke attitude as e.g. JayzTwoCents etc. That's said - it is something that you may want to consider. Cheers!
1:26 I'm sure it's just a filler, but is that the A1 confirmed??? (I don't believe so, the printer is blue, if anything that may confirm the "add-on" suspission)
Great videos about your adventure in China! I wish you covered less companies in one video. I feel like the information you gave us in this video was much more of a "glossary" compared to your previous video. But hey, it might just be my envious side of me speaking here, since who wouldn't want to tour these companies for a living?
@@thenextlayerthats disappointing. The current set of printers out there are faster and better quality than my ageing MK3S, but none offer enough improvement that I'm tempted to replace my MK3S because it's fast enough and good enough quality for the occasional project I do with it.
Not sure if I should pull the trigger on a P1S or wait for the 20th... but I think it'll be something in a different bracket, so leaning towards just pulling the trigger... but seeing all your REDACTED in the start of this video didn't help 🤣🤣
The Bambu Lab visit focused on what you couldn't tell us was a waste and clickbait-ish. (Would have preferred just the team still shot and your verbal summary of what you could talk about.) Otherwise, a solid video. The vitality in the different teams was palpable and fun to see. Would be very interested in a video going into detail on your closing summary comments about China and the 3D Print biz. The sprint across the the different companies gave a good sense of what's happening, but we'd really benefit from your MBA training in the "so what" of your trip. Thanks!
So I really need a printer with quality and speed and I was going to buy a P1P this or next week. Should I wait??? I need all the specs the P1P has!!!!!
If you can justify it then I would go for the P1S instead, it allows you to print more advanced filaments if you ever feel like it. They do have a big announcement of a new product on the 20th so I would wait to see what that is first.
Did not like the Bambu portion. They want to act coy? Fine, but one bleep after another for the better part of two minutes was too much. Would like to see more from PCBWay, but make sure to get a technically knowledgeable guide next time :P
First of all congratulations on your achievements! I want to know, have you ever felt the imposter syndrome regarding your journey into content creation and the places it brings you?
Only in the face of other content creators. With my audience I feel like I’m sharing what I learn as I learn it with you guys. But if I compare myself to someone else… or am at a conference, then I feel like “who am I compared to what they’ve done for the community!”
Taking a small PCB and miniaturising it is a bit of an understatement and not really accurate. It isn’t just like a tiny PCB it is making a custom chip design, pretty much making your own integrated circuits.
I love the idea behind the censored portion of the Bambu tour! Very creative and fun, however that tone is far too loud or maybe I just found the pitch to be very uncomfortable. Keep up the amazing work, thank you!
There was literally nothing else to see there. I think their testing facilities are in Texas. I just saw that one boring desk filled office. And a conference room.
@@thenextlayer oh, I understand! The segment maybe was a bit long I felt like. In any case, it is interesting to know they have stuff in store they were willing to show *you*, but not the general public just yet. Tho this is probably true in the back rooms of any tech company on earth 😜
