Problem-Solving Materials 3D Data Utilization Edition 20 | 3D Printing of Soft Materials

Cost challenges resolved with large 3D printers! How to reduce costs associated with creating large models? A resource for identifying and solving issues in production sites.

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding solutions. In the "3D Data Utilization Edition," we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. [Document Overview] As the performance of FDM 3D printers improves, not only the main material PLA but also functional materials such as heat-resistant and high-strength resins have increased. One of these is "soft materials." However, soft materials tend to clog near the print nozzle, and many models cannot print them, making FDM 3D printers generally considered "not good with soft materials." In this document, we will explain the factors that make FDM printers struggle with soft materials, along with the structure of 3D printers, and introduce 3D printers that can resolve these issues. *You can download the document using the button below.
