My question is, how are you going to maintain 1536 jets???
I have a MMII that is difficult enough to keep two jets functioning
properly......
Or maybe these "nozzles" are a different design altogether. But I still
think it would be necessary to calibrate them for proper alignment and
material flow? I can see the nightmares of faulty or plugged "nozzles"
already.
But at the same time I am also looking forward to seeing it at the upcoming
show in Rosemont, hopefully they will be able to answer all my questions.
And yes they do claim a 0.0008 inch layer thickness.

My big question is, do they have, or plan, a material that burns out?
My parts will never be moldable, so direct casting is a must-have.

That's the second question - that case is mighty sleek looking, but what's
the MTBF? It seems like a lot will depend on how they handle tech support
in the U.S.; we can't phone home to Israel every time something goes wrong.
