What is 3D Printing?
The term 3D printing or otherwise known as additive
manufacturing is a process that involves a three-dimensional
object. The process consists of a nozzle that extrudes materials
layer-by-layer that a 3-axis (X, Y, Z) machine uses.
How strong is a 3D-printed part?
The 3D Printed parts strength is based on what filament is used to make the part. Some factors can also determine the strength of a print. Those factors are the angle of a print and how much infill is used. The most common filament in the market now is PLA, an excellent choice for most parts. There are also more robust types of filament polycarbonate for more durable parts.
Type of Filament we use
- PLA- (Recommended for inexpensive parts)
- PLA Plus- (Recommend for a tougher parts than PLA)
- TPU- ( Recommended for parts that need to be flexible)
- Nylon- (Recommended for parts that need to be strong)
- ABS- (Recommended for parts that need to be heat resistant)
- PETG- (Recommended for a more a strong and resilient parts)
- Polycarbonate- (Recommended for parts that need to be strong and heat-resistant)
