Advanced materials, such as metal matrix composites (MMCs), are important for innovation, national security, and addressing climate change. MMCs are used in military, aerospace, and automotive ...
An experiment using fully recycled material as infill in 3D printing, analyzing strength, efficiency, and overall print quality. Watch what happens when a penny falls 1,453 feet from a helicopter ...
One of the most persistent myths in 3D printing is the idea that stronger parts require more plastic. New users often assume that cranking infill to 100% automatically produces tougher prints, so ...
In this study, the effects of print parameters on the mechanical properties of additively manufactured metallic parts were investigated using a tensile test. The 17-4 PH stainless steel specimens with ...
When you’re spitting out G-Code for a 3D print, you can pick all kinds of infill settings. You can choose the pattern, and the percentage… but the vast majority of slicers all have one thing in common ...
It is always tricky setting the infill for a 3D printed part. High infill parts are strong but take longer to print, while low infill prints take less time, but are weaker internally and in danger of ...
