Optimize your 3D prints with our guide to PLA temperature settings. Learn the best nozzle, bed, and drying temperatures for perfect PLA prints every time.
How to Make 3D Printed Parts Stronger? The strength of 3D printed parts depends on several factors, including the material used, the structural design, part orientation, and the printing process. Strength can vary significantly with 3D materials and the printing process. For example, ABS plastic ...
Learn how to 3D print Nylon like a pro. Nylon is a stronger and more durable alternative to PLA or ABS and easy to 3D print with using these Tips and Tricks. How to Succeed with Your First 3D Print If your obsession with 3D printing is just beginning, check out these easy steps to ...
Producing parts with this material admittedly require a bit more finetuning compared to other filaments such as the fan-favoritePLA. That's where this handy how-to succeed guide comes in! All the tips and tricks we've uncovered from MatterHackers' engineers can be found here,so any hobbyist...
Acquiring knowledge on the different printing parameters can provide more clarity on the influence of these, thus enabling a better printing experience. Here is a short guide to achieve good print quality that will make you ready to print!
PLA is a crystalline polymer with a typical Tg of 60–65 °C, Tm of 175 °C, and tensile strength of 4.8 GPa, which make it a perfect candidate for polymeric wound-healing applications [43]. Several composite polymers based on PLA have been employed to repair damaged skin tissue, ...
I love reading, and consequently, I have a lot of books (too many if there is such a thing). It saddens me to see my beloved books toppling over, so it is time to design and make a modern bookend! When I think of modern architecture and designs, I think of sharp edges and repe...
Once the model has been sliced and is ready for export, it’s time to make sure the printer is ready to print. There are two major components to this process: loading the PLA filament into the extruder and calibrating the build platform. Loading the filament gives the printer material to ...
This in turn will encourage the filament layers to fuse together and create a stronger part. Finding the correct print temperature depends entirely on the type of filament you are using. For example, PLA has a relatively low melting point and prints at a lower temperature than ABS. For PLA...
Download the modeland print it using your filament of choice (I used PLA+, which is a slightly stronger variant of PLA). 🛈 Thanks bfesser! 5– Don’t have a 3D printer? Until very recently, neither did I. But that’s okay — there are tons of other ways to get the model print...
