What happens when you need
a ton of things 3D printed
in a short amount of time?
[MUSIC - ANDREAS ERICSON,
"OLD SCHOOL FREESTYLE 2"]
You send them off to
a 3D printing service.
Today, we're going to go visit
a 3D printing factory here
in China.
He went to the other
side of the road
where I can't really get to him.
You're not supposed to do this.
About a week ago,
my friend Sasha
sent me this picture of a giant
pile of 3D-printed robot parts
he'd ordered, and
as soon as I saw it,
I said I've got to go see
the factory that did that.
All right, now find Sasha.
How's it going?
Good, how about yourself?
Good.
Good to see you.
So what are we going to go see?

Chinese: 
当你在很短时间内需要很多3D打印的部件时会怎样呢？
你需要3D打印服务
今天，我们要去访问一家中国的3D打印公司
他去了马路另一边，我现在到不了他那里
大概一星期之前，我的朋友Sasha给我发了这张照片
里面有一大堆他预定的3D打印的机器人部件
我一看到这些，就说一定要去看一下制作这些的工厂
好了，现在去找Sasha
那么我们要去看什么

Chinese: 
当你短时间需要打印大量的3D产品的时候会发生什么？
 
你将他们发给3D打印服务。
今天我们将要参观中国的一个3D打印工厂。
 
因为接近不了司机，所以我现在在路的另一侧。 我不应该这么做的。
大约一周前，我的朋友Sasha给我发了张一堆他订购的3D机器人部件的照片。
 
当我看到这张照片我就说一定要去看看制造这个的工厂
 
现在去找Sasha
近来如何？
还好？
所以，我们今天去看什么？
Sasha：我们今天去看3D打印工厂，一个超酷的工厂。

English: 
We're going to see a
3D printing factory.
It's a really cool factory
that prints SLA, FDM,
like, with PLA, with
ABS, with, like,
lasers and stuff like that-- a
lot of different technologies.
I don't actually know what
the processes look like,
but I'm really
excited to find out.
And so how did this work?
You went to their website
and you uploaded your file
and you put in your credit card?
Nothing like that.
It was way simpler.
Somebody hooked me up with Max,
who is like the sales person
there.
Awesome.
And we just send her files
and she just prints them
and sends them the next day.
Well let's go check it out.
Yeah, I'm super excited.
I know, me to.
So this is a part of
every factory visit ever.
We're here, but we don't
know which building.
Right now, we're at a
car dealership, which
seems unlikely that it's
also a 3D printing factory,
but you never know.
Could be up there.
[SPEAKING CHINESE]
[MUSIC - ANDREAS ERICSON,
"OLD SCHOOL FREESTYLE 2"]
Yeah, this is it.
Hi.
Hello.
Yeah, are you Leo?
Yes, Leo.
Scotty.
Sasha.
Nice to meet you.
Yes.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.

Chinese: 
 
Sasha：打印SLA FDM，像PLA,  ABS,  激光
 
Sasha：还有很多高科技，实际上我也不知道流程是什么样子的，但是我很激动的来去探寻。
 
所以如何来下订单呢？是不是在他们的网站上上传你的文件，输入你的银行账户？
不是这样的，他们的操作远比这个简单
有人找上了我，就好像那个公司的销售人员，我们就发了文件
 
 
好吧，让我们去看看！Sasha:我超激动的。  我也是
现在我们到了每个参观每个工厂都要有的部分：我们到这里了但不知道是哪栋楼。
现在我们在一个4S店，显然不是3D打印工厂，工厂有可能在斜上方。
 
3层
嗨！
你是Leon. Scottie

Chinese: 
我们要去看一个3D打印工厂
这家工厂真的很棒
他们有SLA、FDM机器，用PLA、ABS和激光等好多不同的技术
我其实不太知道过程是怎样的，但是我很高兴去一探究竟
不过你平时都是怎样工作的
是不是你去网站，上传文件，然后用信用卡
不是这样的
会更简单很多，会有销售人员联系我
然后，你只需要把文件发给他们，第二天他们就打印好发货了
好吧，我们一起去看一看
好，我超级激动的。我知道，我也是
所以，这里有很多家工厂
我们在这里，但是不知道是要去哪一栋楼
现在，眼前是一个汽车零售店
看起来并不是我们要去的
也许3D打印工厂在附近，或许就在上面
——你好，这个     ——三楼
好，谢谢
你好，是Leo吗
——是的，Leo     ——Scotty     ——Sasha

Chinese: 
很高兴见到你，谢谢接待。
 
我们的SLA工作间
这里有8台机器
这真的太酷了
我从来没有亲眼见过。看起来真棒。
所以现在都在打印吗？
 
我们可以看到这些在打印
我看到了，很棒。
是的，树脂。
液态的。
所以是堆叠的那种方法。
每一层是0.1mm的厚度
多少？
0.1mm
Leon: 这是我们的原材料
TSM
欧洲制造
这是透明部分的打印
机器是中国制造，但是原材料用的是欧洲的
同样的，激光部分，是德国制造的。
 

English: 
Thank you for having us.
So follow to my office.
OK.
Our SLA workshop.
Oh, wow.
Oh, wow.
We have eight machines.
You guys have eight
machines here.
That's pretty awesome.
Can we look?
Yes.
Oh, cool.
Oh, wow.
I've never seen that
before in person.
It's pretty awesome, isn't it?
So are these all printing, now?
Yes.
Some of them are
finished, though, so.
You can see that
this is printing.
Just starting.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, I see, yeah,
yeah, yeah, nice.
Is that resin?
Like, is it liquid--
Yeah, resin, liquid, yes.
And so it adds more on top.
Yes.
Yeah, looks kind of--
Each step's thickness
is 0.1 millimeter.
Has how much?
0.1 millimeter.
0.1.
Yes, yes.
Yeah.
We have three materials here.
DSM.
DSM.
DSM.
OK, yeah.
Made in Europe, yes.
This is a transparent part.
Are these machines
made in China?
Yeah, yeah, in China, yes, but
material is made in Europe.
Also, the laser
part made in German.

Chinese: 
【见面寒暄】
那里是我的办公室
这是我们的SLA车间
这里有8台机器
这真的太棒了
我们能看一下吗
很棒
我以前从没有亲眼看过。对我来说太棒了
这些机器都在打印吗
你来看，这个正在打印
这个刚刚开始打印
我看到了，很棒
对，是树脂，液态的，对
上面会增加更多是吗
每一步的增加的厚度是0.1mm
我们这里有三种材料
有DSM，欧洲制造的
这里是透明部件的部分
机器是中国制造的，但是耗材是欧洲制造的
另外，激光部件

English: 
In Germany, oh, I see.
[MUSIC - BLOSSOM LEARNING,
 "QUANTUM"]
They might be printing this.
We sent an order for 55
pieces of this yesterday.
How much does one of
these machines cost?
Cost about 350,000 rmb.
So like, $50,000?
Yeah.
How many parts per
day do you print here?
100 to 200 orders.
This is 24 hours running.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
This is temperature.
Because of the laser
system, the temperature
we should control from
20 degrees to 30 degrees.
Humidity we have to
be less than 40%.
If it's over 40%, the
material will get a problem.
We cannot use the white
light in this room, yes.
But why?
Because of the materials,
because this material

Chinese: 
是德国制造的
它正在打印的也许是我们昨天发来的这个订单
这个有55个部件
这样一台机器有多少钱
花费大概在35万人民币左右
也就是5万美元左右
大概100到200个订单
这些机器是24小时运转的
这是温度计
激光系统要在控制的温度下工作
温度要在20到30摄氏度之间
湿度要小于40％
如果湿度高于40％
材料会出现问题
我们不能再这间屋里用白光灯
为什么
因为这是一种不同的材料

Chinese: 
 
现在也许正在打印我们昨天给他们下的55个部件的订单。
每个机器的价格是多少呢？
大概在35万人民币
 
 
 
 
大概100-200个订单
这个是24小时运转的
这个是温度
因为激光系统
我们需要控制温度在20-30度之间
湿度需要在40%以下
如果高于40%，原材料就会出问题。
 
在这个房间我们不能使用白光灯
为什么？
因为原材料。

Chinese: 
因为这个原材料是不同的原材料
当原材料暴露在白光灯下就会出问题。
所以，如果你用了日常的灯
这将会弄坏你的材料
所以你用橘黄色的灯
你就可以检查机器内部，打开机器门，从而不会损坏材料。
这超酷的
这是我们打磨房间
 
因为这些原件，我们打印了，需要打磨。
你可以看到，这里有许多支撑结构。
这是支撑原材料。
我们需要去掉支撑然后打磨表面。
通常我们使用砂纸打磨
我们可以看到下单日期
这是我们的交付时间
交付时间对我们来说十分重要
通常的交付时间是多久？
通常上24小时
 

Chinese: 
用白光灯会让材料出现问题
所以如果用普通的灯会影响材料
材料会变硬
所以你要用这些橘黄色的灯
这样你才能看机器内部的情况
这真的超级棒
这是我们的抛光室
这些部件打印出料之后，我们要进行抛光
因为你看，这里有很多支撑的部分
我们必须去掉这些支撑部分
然后抛光表面
一般我们用砂纸进行抛光
我们能看到下单日期
这个是快递日期
快递日期对我们非常重要
当有人下单时，你们一般的生产周期是多长时间
一般是24小时

English: 
is a different material,
when it sees the white light,
get a problem.
So if you use normal lights,
it will cure your material,
your material will get hard.
Yes.
So you use these
orange-yellow lights
so that you can
look inside machines
and open the doors without
it ruining the print.
Yes, yes.
Yeah.
Got it.
This is super-cool.
This is our polishing room.
Ah.
Because these parts, after we
print, then we polish them.
Because, you see, there
are many supports.
This is a support module.
We have to take out the support
and to polish the surface.
Yes.
Yeah.
Normally we have to do the
polishing by the sandpaper.
We can see all the days.
And this is the delivery date.
Delivery date is very
important for us.
What is a typical
turnaround for you, for SLA?
Like when someone orders,
what's the typical due date?
Normally 24 hours.
24 hours, so.
Yeah, normally 24 hours.
So you have 24 hours
until it's delivered,
or until you ship it out?

Chinese: 
那么24小时是你们生产出来，还是要寄走
这里很脏
对，是很脏
完成打印后，要在这里清洗部件
噢，这里是用来清洗的
你能看到，这些订单是来自一个旧金山的客户的
所以你们是用类似FedEx，UHL的快递寄走
你们的客户都是一般什么人，他们的订单一般都是用来做什么
是用来制作原型吗
是的，原型
一般是是吗类型的产品
不太确定
你只是制作部件
是，他们只是把文件发过来，我们不太清楚他们要做什么
这是我们的硅胶模具
你看，这是硅胶模具
我们使用SLA打印机制作一个原始部件
然后我们用硅胶模具复制几个这样的部件
举个栗子，我们打印一个SLA部件
然后我们制作硅胶模具，再把原始部件拿出来

Chinese: 
24小时是已经送到，还是发货？
发货
Leon：这有点脏。     我知道
打印后来洗他们
Leon：你可以看到我们的来自圣佛西斯科的顾客订单
 
所以 用Fedex和DHL发货
我们的典型顾客都是什么类型的
大体上是什么？
是，模版
是哪种产品？
Leon：不太确定。你就是制造这些部件。
Leon:我也说不上他们想要这些干嘛。
这些是我们的硅模
你可以看到这是我们的硅模
我们用SLA制造最初的部件
然后我们使用硅模
可以使用这个模具来复制 多个部件
 
 
举个例子，我们拿到了SLA部件
然后制造模具，然后取出原部件
然后使用其他原材料来浇铸

English: 
Shipped out.
Shipped out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yes, yes.
It's dirty.
Yeah, I know it is dirty.
To wash the parts when
they finish the print.
Oh, this is for
washing off, here.
You can see this order we did
for San Francisco customer.
So you'll ship those
like, FedEx or DHL?
Yes, yes, yes.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Leo, who is a typical customer?
Why are they ordering parts?
What are these generally for?
Is it for prototypes,
is it for--
Yes, for prototypes.
Prototypes.
For what types of products?
Not sure.
Not sure, you just
make the parts.
Yes, they send me
the file to us,
we can't tell what
is they want to do.
Yes.
This is our silicone molds.
You see this is silicone.
Oh, silicone.
Yes.
SLA, we just make the
original parts, one part,
and then we use
the silicone mold.
They can copy a few
parts with this mold.
For example, we've got
the SLA piece, and then
to make the mold and take
out the original piece,

Chinese: 
然后再用其它的材料注入模具中
再把新部件拿出来
这样我们可以制作柔软或者彩色的部件
因为SLA现在只能制作硬的，颜色是白色或者透明的部件
如果你需要其他颜色或者柔性的部件，我们可以使用硅胶模具制作
那么这个是什么材料的
ABS
所以，你们可以用ABS塑型
是的
这个你不需要注模是吗
这个我们不需要注模
这是一个 类ABS 的材料
这个上面有很好的细节，而且很脆
是的
一个模具可以制作多少部件
通常一个模具可以制作十个部件
十个部件，好的
并不能做成百上千个
是的，不能
只能做很小的数量
 
喔，好的
这个看起来像是一个手机壳什么的
这个看起来像是给手机用的

Chinese: 
然后再拿出来
我们可以制造柔软的部件或者其他色彩的部件。
因为现在，SLA只可以打印硬的部件和白色或者透明的部件。
 
 
如果你需要其他的颜色或者柔软的部件，我们就使用硅模。
 
这个是什么材料做的？
ABS   你可以浇铸ABS?
你不需要浇铸模具？
这个是类似于ABS材料
这个细节处理的很好
 
所以，一个模具能做几个部件？
通常上一个模具可以造10个
所以一次不能成千成千的造
 
 
 
 
这个像手机壳或者类似的东西
 

English: 
and then we use
the other materials
to inject and then take out.
Yeah.
We also can make the softer
parts or other colors part,
because now the
SLA only can print
the hard part, and the white
part, or the transparent.
Got it.
If you need other colors
or some softer parts,
we use silicone mold.
So what material is this?
ABS.
ABS.
Yeah.
And so you can cast ABS?
Yes.
You don't have to
injection mold it.
We don't need to injection mold.
This is ABS-like material.
Like--
Similar to ABS.
Yes, yes, yes.
You can get really
good detail on these.
This character is
very, very crisp.
And so how many parts can
you make with one mold?
Normally one mold
for the 10 parts.
10 parts.
That's right, yes.
So, not 1,000 with one.
Yes, no, no.
Just for small quantities.
Got it.
Oh, yeah.
OK.
Oh, so this would be for like a
phone case or something, maybe.
Yeah, this looks like
it was for a phone.

Chinese: 
 
 
你用哪种原材料来制造软质产品？
橡胶或者TPU
不同的硬度从48A, 软48A，到硬90A
你可以选择
 
你可以给我们说你需要哪种硬度。
我不知道如何操作这个
 
这个是给硅模
抽出空气
哦，像真空一样
酷，所以是来弄走气泡的？
Leon: 对        去除气泡机
这些是一样的吗？
Leon: 这些是旧的机器
所以你升级了
酷

Chinese: 
看起来有摄像头
是的，上面摄像头的孔
制作柔软的部件使用什么材料
用比如橡胶或者TPU
我们可以制作出不同的硬度
从软的48A，到硬的90A
你可以随意选择
你可以告诉我们你要怎样的硬度，我们都能做
我不知道怎么操作这个
这个是用来制作硅胶模具的
把里面的空气抽出来
啊，就像真空
是的
用来去掉里面的气泡，明白了
这些一样的吗
是的，真空机
这个是老机器，这个是新机器
所以你升级了设备

English: 
That's awesome.
Looks like there's like the
camera and everything here.
Mm-hmm, yeah, the camera hole.
What kind of materials
do you use for softer?
Like the rubber, or like TPU.
We can do the different
hardness from the 48--
soft's 48-- to the 98.
Awesome.
You can choose.
You can choose your hardness.
Yeah, you can let us know, OK.
Which hardness do you want?
We can make it.
I don't know how to operate
this, because I'm not
the regular operator.
But this one's for
the silicone mold to--
To make it hot?
To take out the air.
Ah, like a vacuum.
Yes, yes.
Ah, OK.
Yeah.
Yeah, cool, to
remove the bubbles.
Yes, yes.
Got it.
The remove-bubble machine.
These are all the same?
These are vacuum--
Yeah, they're the same.
OK, wow.
This is an older machine,
this is a new machine.
Ah, OK, so you're upgrading.
Yeah.
Cool.
[MUSIC PLAYING - BLOSSOM
 LEARNING, "QUANTUM"]

Chinese: 
所以Leon,你
你打印了一堆PLA部件给
Sasha
然后另一个工厂来制作PLA
我们直接在商店里制作PLA
我们有许多打印机
在我们的华强的商店里有十台打印机，直接打印。
每次工厂参观最有趣的部分，一定要和boss在标志前合影。
 
 
 
我来教你如何照照片。
拍好照片需要注意3个重要的事情
 
第一，张大嘴。 这是第一步
 
第二部摆手势。
第三部，指出和你一起的人。
 
 

Chinese: 
Leo，你给Sasha打印了一堆PLA部件
那是在另外一个工厂
PLA的话我吗直接在商店里打印
我们有很多打印机
在华强北的商店里我们有十多个打印机，所以直接打印
重要的部分来了
每一次去工厂访问
你一定要和老板在公司LOGO前面合影
Leo，我要教你们两个怎么合影
拍一张好照片有三个要点
首先，嘴张得越大，照片越好
这是第一步
第二步，手枪手
第三步，是用手指着和你在一起的人
咱们再来一张

English: 
So Leo, you, let's see, you
printed a bunch of PLA parts
for Sasha.
That was another factory
that did the PLA?
PLA, we do it in
the shop directly.
We have many printers.
We have more than 10 printers
in the Huaqiang shop.
So they print directly.
Important part of
every factory visit
is to make sure you get a
photo with the boss in front
of the sign, so.
How do we--
Can we do one more?
One?
So, Leo, I'm going to teach
both of you how I take pictures.
So there are three important
things to take a good photo.
First, bigger the
mouth, better the photo.
That's step one.
Second step, face frame.
The third step is,
who are you with?
So you point at who you're with.
[CAMERA SHUTTER]
What do you think?
First off, thank you for
showing us your factory.

Chinese: 
首先，感谢你来带我们参观你的工厂
真的很酷
如果有人想要找你下订单
该如何联系你？
email或者浏览我们的网站
我会做的是，把你的email和
放在视频描述里面
所以如果你想和Leo或者立现合作
这是个特别酷的工厂
来制造很好的部件，下面是他们的网站和email来联系他们。
 
Sasha如果人们想联系你，最好的方法是什么？
 
我的YouTube频道也很棒
 
这真的很酷
Sasha：我真的很激动，我们看到了很多SLA机器，FTL。
真的我真的很激动能看到
 
 
也许你可以在市场看到

Chinese: 
谢谢你带我们参观你的工厂
这真的很棒，谢谢你
如果人们想要和你做生意，他们想在你这里订购部件
联系你最好的方式是什么
Email，你们可以去我们的网站看一看
那么，我会把你们的Email和你的网站放在这个视频的说明里
所以如果你想和Leo和立现一起工作
怎么说呢，这看起来是一个很棒的工厂，制作的部件也很棒
所以，去视频下面看一下他们的网址和Email
然后和他们取得联系
Sasha，如果有人想和你取得联系
哪里是找到你的好地方
我的YouTube频道
那把你的频道也链接在视频下方
这真的很棒
是的，看到这么多SLA打印机很激动，不，是FDM打印机
港真，我激动的就是看到FDM打印机
也许我们可以在市场上看到他们
是的，不过很明显他们所有的都是在市场上做

English: 
Yes, thanks for coming.
This is really cool.
[SPEAKING CHINESE]
If people want to do
business with you, if they
want to order parts from you,
what is the best way for them
to contact you?
Email.
You can go to our website, also.
OK, OK, awesome.
So what I'll do is
I'll put your email
and your website in
the video description.
So if you want to work with
Leo and Lexcent, I don't know,
this seems like a
pretty cool factory,
they seem to make
really good parts.
So check out their website
and their email below,
and you can get in touch.
Sasha, if people want to
get in touch with you,
what's the best
place to find you?
My YouTube channel.
Awesome.
We'll link that in the
description as well.
Absolutely.
Awesome.
Cool, man.
Well that was pretty cool.
Yeah I was really excited.
And we got to see a
lot of SLA machines,
although, no FDM machines.
I want to see those.
I know, that was kind of what
I was excited to see, to be
honest, was the FDM setup.
Maybe you can see
them in the market.
Yeah, right, but
apparently they're
just doing that
all in the market.
Yeah.
I guess?
Kind of a surprise.
Yeah.
Yeah.

Chinese: 
显然他们也在市场里制作
我以为我们可以看到100多个FMD的机器
但是，真的很酷，因为能看到工业级别SLA制造
 
 
 
像一种标准
或者制版技术
 
如果你要制作浇铸模型，你应该考虑SLA
 
在中国工厂的冒险很优秀。
还有一件事，在2018
我在不熟悉的领域的一个大目标是
是参观所有的工厂
我想知道的是你们想要看到哪些工厂
我们或许不能参观大的出名的工厂
我们看不了富士康iPhone工厂
Xbox工厂，等等类似的。
一般的，手机工厂。
我们可以参观指尖陀螺
平衡车
你告诉我，你们想要看啥

Chinese: 
那么，我们今天还是有一些小失望
我以为我们今天会看到的是几百台FDM打印机
不过今天能看到工业级的SLA打印机
工作的状况还是很棒的
像是标准，原型制作技术
如果你需要做注模或是类似的
SLA将是你的选择
在中国这里访问工厂像是一次冒险
这次也不例外
还有一件事
在2018年，StrangeParts的一个大目标就是
去访问各种工厂
但是我想知道你们想看哪种工厂
现在，我们可能进不了任何大牌工厂
比如生产苹果手机的富士康或是生产XBOX的工厂
不过，一般的手机工厂，我们也许可以去手机工厂
我们可以去看看指尖陀螺是怎样生产的
或是悬浮滑板
你们来告诉我想看什么

English: 
So anyway, a little bit of a
bummer we didn't get to see--
I thought we were
going to see, like,
a 100 FDM machines, which is
what I was really fired up
about.
But it was really cool
to see a production,
industrial-scale SLA
operation, which really like,
that's kind of the standard
prototyping technique here.
Like if you're going to go do
injection molding or something
like that, SLA is your go-to.
Well, it's always an adventure
visiting factories here
in China.
This one was no exception.
There's one more thing,
which is that in 2018, one
of my big goals
for Strange Parts
is to visit more factories.
But I want to know
what kind of factories
do you guys want to see?
Now we probably can't get
into like, any big brand name
factories, right.
We're not going to go
see Foxconn's iPhone
plant, or the Xbox factory,
or something like that.
But generic stuff, like,
you know, cell phones,
we'd probably get into
a cell phone factory.
We could go see how
fidget spinners are
made, hoverboards--
you tell me.
What do you guys want to go see?
Leave a comment below.

English: 
Tell me what you're
interested in.
And also, if you have a factory
that you can get me in to see
and it's cool, send me an email
to factories@strangeparts.com.
I'd love to hear from you.
As always, guys, I'm
