Their pins looks very strong. On their website they show that you can use them to hold parts for CNC machining. I really doubt any 3D printer can be as fast as that even with 1mm layers but we don't have number from fyous so we cannot confirm anything. However, 3D printing is muxh more wasteful.

It would be a lot slower and time is money.

The un-compressed images is also weird. But all in all, for me, it's just the wrong tool for the job, it's a security camera, not a camera to monitor your printer. I don't know if it's clearly explained from them but their customers will not get the difference. The proof is this reddit post.

Apparently no, they say they are preparing some guides. Or maybe RMA for some countries and not for others...

I know all this but there is another argument from them on the source I link: they want to make it cheaper. Also they will still provide bed for replacement.

That's weird, I did nothing special on my side.

I've also proposed a certification process.

The OpenPrintTag is using a GPLv3 license which is weird for a universal standard and not a good license for specification anyway. Someone reported that issue already proposing the MIT license. Also it's stored in the Prusa GitHub space rather than a dedicated one, I opened an issue for that too.

Just another close source CoreXY... I have yet to check how they made the bed but for the rest it's boring. I dislike the Nextruder and CoreXY motion, looking forward to see them moving away from that. So nothing much interesting to me. The open spool thing is a great idea and an obvious move.

The problem I heard with wind turbine is that the blades are consumable and there is no way to recycle them. They need to be replaced frequently. Currently they are upcycled which is just shifting the recycling time and potentially making it even worse as it could get mixed with other materials.

You must be able to update in case of safety bug in Linux OS or Klipper and its library. This is crucial on a robot that melt flammable plastic for hours and unattended.
