Benefits of printing with a closed chamber
Purchasing a 3D printer may result in some stress in choice because there is a lot to choose from. An important difference is the construction of the 3D printer. There are 3D printers on the market without a casing/cabinet, these printers are very sensitive to the...
What is 3D print delamination and how do you prevent it?
We talk about delamination in 3D printing when a shrinkage occurs higher up in the print model, during 3D printing. When and how fast a product shrinks depends very much on the type of material you use during printing. PLA and PET-G are not sensitive to this, but when...
Closed versus Open 3D printer systems
Where the purchase of a professional 3D printer the first years was only reserved for the major players in the market, 3D printing is becoming more and more accessible. Also a professional 3D printer is becoming more affordable, there are machines from €4.000,- that...
Keep your 3D printer head cool!
All about the temperature That the right temperature is very important in 3D printing needs no further explanation. The dddrop RAPID ONE is equipped with a closed chamber, to limit the influence of the environment. But you can imagine that if the temperature rises, it...
3D printing remote production
A new way of producing There is no doubt that the 3D printer, with its endless possibilities, is increasingly changing the way we produce. The technology of 3D printing is in full development and partly because of this development, 3D printing is becoming more...
How to prevent stringing while 3D printing
What causes stringing in 3d printing? When the head of your 3D printer has to move from one point in your model to another, the filament can flow out. The result is stringing: small strands of material appear between the printed parts. Stringing is especially common...
Creating a solid top layer for your 3D print
A 3D print usually consists of a solid exterior filled with a grid. This saves time and material, resulting in the same model. Of course, you want the exterior to be smooth and solid, but that can be a challenge for the top layer. How do you ensure a strong and sturdy...
Why 3D printing becomes more accessible
Starting with 3D printing Do you think 3D printing is a (too) big investment for your business? That might be a misconception. 3D printing is becoming more accessible, both in terms of purchase cost and the knowledge required to operate the printer itself....
Why don’t my 3D printing layers merge properly?
If all the layers of your 3D print are not printed correctly, it is likely due to under extrusion. Under extrusion is a complex problem that can lead to missing layers or layers that are not fully printed, leading to gaps in the model. Unfortunately, we cannot...
