Surface Ironing 3d Printing

An overwhelming number of you voted for simplify3d as top 3d slicing software in our 2015 pinshape awards which is one of the reasons we chose to use them as our.

Surface ironing 3d printing. In most instances this warping is most pronounced near the middle of the print bed since it is the most likely point of failure. I will be tonight to see how well it works. Xyz just pushed a new version of xyzprint that now hasmore features. Since print beds need to be anchored by screws to the frame of the 3d printer to make a stable surface the thermal expansion of aluminum usually results in the print bed itself getting warped.

One of them being surface ironing. Also with this new update xyzprint seems to slice faster and better. Place the aluminum foil over the 3d print that you want to smooth out. Actually the surface finish of the model printed with ironing enabled is even better than the photo.

I intentionally positioned the camera in a way that makes any irregularities shine. Another feature is first layer height and some other stuff to do with supports. Now were going to go over some of the more advanced settings that give you more detailed control over how your print comes out so you can take your 3d printing to the next level. Keep the foil as smooth as possible to keep the wrinkles from imprinting into the 3d print.

Cura 27 comes with the feature of ironing which allows for great top surface quality on your 3d prints. Use tin foil to cover the part.
