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?
What does under extrusion mean for 3D printing? 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...
Creating a strong infill for your 3D print
Filling is an important factor The infill is an important factor in your product’s strength. Therefore, it’s important to prevent the infill from being too thin or stringy with the tips underneath. Different patterns: There are several different infill patterns to...
