Moment 3D Printer

The Moment 3d printer is the latest entry into the 3D printing market. This Korean made printer focuses on ultra high quality prints and build.

The Moment is a FFF gantry-style printer.  It has an aluminum double-walled body and all the interior components are made of aluminum, except the single drive belt (it uses two stepper motors and one continuous belt loop to drove BOTH the X and Y axis), the two cooling fans (which are plastic), and the build plate surface (which is glass).  It uses a single solid metal extruder and hotend and a heated glass build plate for use with either PLA or ABS.  The exterior size of the machine is 300mm x 360mm x 348mm and has an interior build area of 145mm x 145mm x 160mm.  It supports either Windows or Mac OS systems, uses either USB or SD card file loading, and prints at a maximum resolution of 50 microns.

In addition to all the hardware features, Moment also includes a user’s license for a “Simplify3D” software package for their customers. I have not yet played with this software, but the website does give a lot of information which seems to be a solid “all-in-one” package with a short video explaining the product pretty well.
