I tried adjusting the 3D data of the assembly for powder molding.
What points should be noted for powder 3D printing? I tried adjusting the 3D data for movable assemblies!
"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. 41 is "I tried adjusting the 3D data of the assembly for powder 3D printing!" In the previous issue, we challenged ourselves to create a solid structure using the STL data of a Rubik's Cube with the powder 3D printer Fuse 1, but unfortunately, it did not rotate... The cause was that it had already been integrated at the stage of the CT scan data. From this result, we learned that "to make 'usable 3D data,' adjustments according to subsequent applications are necessary." Therefore, this time we adjusted the STL data to be suitable for SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) method. "What does it mean to 'make usable 3D data'?" "What should we be careful about in powder 3D printing?" We will explain the considerations during data adjustment, along with verification photos and comments from our technical staff. *You can download the materials from the button below.

For those interested in how to create print data using the SLS method or those looking to make better use of 3D data, please use this as a helpful hint.
