【Mitarepo】I tried insert molding with a 3D printer!
"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products with the concept of "I tried doing this!" We deliver useful information each time from the wide range of product genres handled by System Create. The theme of Vol. 12 is "I tried insert molding with a 3D printer!" This time, we created a spool holder that attaches to the 3D printer itself and attempted "insert molding" during the process. We challenged "integrated molding" by stopping the print at a certain height, embedding a bearing inside the model, and then resuming the print. We are examining the process of creating the print data, the actual molding process, and the performance and movement of the completed holder. How do we work on this? Does the finished product work properly? We will explain the "work process and completion level" that you might be curious about, along with actual images and comments from the technical staff! *You can download the materials from the button below.
