With the growing popularity of 3D-printed products, material consumption has been a major concern in additive manufacturing in recent years. Choosing the infill structure and the printing parameters ...

This research was driven by the increasing demand for lightweight, high-performance energy-absorbing structures in the automotive industry. Achieving optimal specific energy absorption while ...

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 ...

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 ...

Desiccant is common in 3D printing because the drier plastic filament is, the better it prints. Beads of silica gel are great for controlling humidity, but finding a porous container for them that is ...
