For anyone getting annoyed at how long their 3D printed project is taking, this simple pattern update could help speed up the ...

IBM is exploring a way to turn empty 3D printed cavities into engineered features instead of unused air. Most desktop and industrial extrusion based systems treat hollows as a simple geometry problem.

Infill is the slider everyone touches, almost nobody truly understands, and plenty of people blame when a print fails. That’s partly because it looks like a “strength” knob, and strength is an easy ...

Dy default, the slicing software used for 3D printers has the printer first create the walls around the edges of a print, then goes back to deposit the infill pattern. [NeedItMakeIt], however, ...

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 ...
