As mentioned above, like paper printing, you have to own a file to 3D Print; but to distinguish from paper printing, 3D Printing prints a 3D object, which means you need to have a 3D model to print. That is why you need to create a CAD model before 3D Printing. Because 3D Printing...
Today, some of the same 3D printing technology that contributed to RP is now being used to create finished products. The technology continues to improve in various ways, from the fineness of detail a machine can print to the amount of time required to clean and finish the object when the ...
Step 4 – 3D print Now you can sit back and relax! Or if you’re at work, get on with something else while the printer does its job. Printing times vary depending on the size and detail level of your printed object and your 3D printer type. On an FFF 3D printer such as Ultimaker...

When the process is complete, the SLA raises the platform and you end up with your 3D object. If the object is small, you can produce several of them simultaneously if you like. They all sit next to each other on the tray. The following photo shows a tray after building is complete,...
If you’re looking to printhigh density objects with fairly simple geometries, a closed chamber, single extruder system could be right for you. With these units, you can print support structures and the main object using the same material. Their closed chambers also make it easier to deploy ...
Bring your favorite images to life by creating a lithophane model and 3D printing it. When illuminated from behind, the details in the photos are revealed.

The infill is what goes inside a 3D print. It would take way too long to 3D print a completely solid object and so some clever 3D printing engineers came up with infill, essentially a hollow grid pattern similar to honeycomb that allows the 3D print to have strength but still be light ...
To remove all maps from all of the 3D object’s surfaces, clickClear All. To shade and apply the object’s lighting to the mapped artwork, selectShade Artwork. To show only the artwork map, not the geometry of a 3D object, selectInvisible Geometry. This is useful when you want to use...
