QSQM Technology, a Chinese startup who was recently acquired by Nanjing F.M. Laser Technology Co., Ltd for $1 million has launched an Indiegogo campaign on August 1st for its upgraded version of Uncia DLP 3D Printer.
Earlier this year, QSQM launched a crowd-funding campaign on Indiegogo for its original Uncia DLP 3D Printer and raised $3,699, 740% of its $500 goal. In the past few months, the company has continued with the development of their research and upgraded both hardware and software of their printer.
DLP Projector based printers utilizes the same kind of projector often used for PowerPoint presentations and is capable of turning liquid into finely detailed objects. This upgraded version of Uncia DLP 3D printer developed by QSQM team is equipped with a brand new projector, which is calibrated and fully automated. The company says with the new projector "Uncia could provide excellent stable beam and high precision with the right settings."
The new Uncia DLP 3D Printer uses a stepping motor manufactured in Germany for reliable quality and stable operation. It also includes rigid body made of steel and a new belt made in Italy for better performance.
Specs:
Dimensions – 350x270x700mm
Build Volume – 102x77x170mm
XY Resolution – 100 micron
Layer Resolution – 100 micron
Supported Operating System – Windows
Curing Speed Per Layer – 1.5 seconds
Weight – 18.5 kg without projector & 20 kg with projector
QSQM hopes the concept of 3D printing could be extensively introduced to people in Asia as it is in Europe and U.S. It is offering the basic model of Uncia printers (without projector) for $299 on indiegogo. And for $599 you will get a Uncia 3D printer and Finish Kit, including the projector. This offer is only available for 30 earliest backers.

QSQM informed us that by reaching its different goals on indiegogo, it will donate several printers to Asian schools, and all schools could join the project and apply for the free printer. It's goal is "to make contributions to the Asian education on 3D Printing, to let every ordinary person enjoy what 3D Printing could bring to them."
QSQM will donate the printer based on the following criteria:
Once all the $299 printers are all gone, 1 Uncia printer will be donated.
Once all the $599 printers are all gone, 1 Uncia printer will be donated.
Once both the $299 & $399 printers are gone, 5 more will be donated.
Once both the $599 & $699 printers are gone, 5 more will be donated.
All Asian schools can contact the company via their website to join the project.
