Update: I am keeping a close watch on the latest kickstarter of the anchor. The campaign is now closed and is going to take something special to defeat it.
A total of 17,822 Backers raised $ 46,762,258 on a large scale in the vows. It is not a typo – the world’s first 3D texture UV printer has been pledged to see daylight more than $ 46.5 million.

Basic story below.
- Anker Eufymake E1 prints up to 5 mm thick texture using UV-Curable ink, not filament
- Makes E1 more than $ 45 million raised on kickstarter to date to date.
- Eufymake E1 supports more than 300 materials including metal, leather and curved surfaces
The latest forest of anchor in creative devices is unexpectedly taken by the anchor kick With the storm with its new device, Eufymake E1, in its campaign, still produces about 45 million dollars pledge with the remaining days, which is the most funded kickstarter project ever.
Developed under the Eufy sub-brand of Anker, E1 is being marketed as the world’s first individual 3D-exposure UV printer.
While the enthusiasm among the backers is undisputed, the real question is whether this all-in-one 3D printer machine can live up to its extraordinary promise.
Take a different on home 3d printing
Unlike a specific home 3D printer, Euffymake E1 does not work with filament to create objects – instead, it uses UV -Caburable ink and calls a process anker amass3D technology to layer with ink in ink designs on flat or curved surfaces.
The texture can reach 5 mm thick and can be printed on more than 300 materials including glass, leather, metal and wood.
It also supports cylindrical objects through rotary printing and direct-to-film output to create custom stickers.
From a technical point of view, the E1 is packed with features, including laser levelers, 8 MP camera with AI positioning, and Colormestro system that distributes vivid and permanent full-colored prints.
The company also promises a hand-user experience, thanks to the Jetlen self-cleaning system.
These can appeal equally to extra artists and small businesses, especially those who produce custom goods such as jewelry, tumbller or vinyl stickers.
Nevertheless, it is not just a clever crafting tool; It is clearly being deployed as a major pitch in the DIY market.
With the target for consumer space with Eufymake E1, questions about long -term durability, ink costs and real -world precision arise, factors that often distinguish a gadget from a reliable tool.
Claims of low operating costs, such as, “the value of a dollar ink on the custom metal sign may seem hypniring, but they will need to test outside the promotion video.
Consumption of ink is an important idea for 3D printers. While the Eufymake E1 campaign claims that 600 mL yield is about 1,000 small prints, there is no detailed ML-print data for 3D outputs.
Given that the cost of a ink set is approximately $ 299, it means that an average user can spend approximately $ 0.50 per print, and possibly more depending on the application – and in the long run, it can prove to be very expensive for the owners of small businesses.
The user or even material optimizing the best for everyday use may require to be carefully compared before committing the best laser for customization.
