Issue Resolution Document: Utilizing 3D Data Edition 4-1 | Reducing Post-Processing Time
How can we shorten the "post-processing time" challenge of 3D printers? A resource for identifying and solving challenges in the production field.
This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. In the "3D Data Utilization Edition," we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. In Vol. 4-1, we will focus on the theme of "reducing post-processing time" and introduce a printing method that can reduce the human costs associated with 3D printing. [Document Overview] The largest human cost during 3D printer operation is the time involved in finishing work. A significant portion of this finishing work consists of "removing supports." Therefore, introducing a device that makes support removal easy is key to reducing human costs. By alleviating the workload for operators and shortening the time previously spent on post-processing, productivity can be improved, allowing for rapid prototyping and repeated evaluation and testing in a short period. This document will further explain how differences in printing methods can lead to reductions in human costs, including mechanisms for printing without support materials and an introduction to implementation concepts. *You can download the document using the button below.
