3D Scanning and Printing Test the design rules for your 3D printer. For this assignment, we used 4 files from the assignment page at Fab Academy: ANGLE, BRIDGING, WALL THICKNESS and SURFACE FINISH.
We have in the workshop a ULTIMAKER 2+ filament based 3d printer. Ultimaker 2+ technical specifications: Build volume: Ultimaker 2+ 223 x 223 x 205 mm Assembled dimensions: Ultimaker 2+ 342 x 493 x 588 mm Print technology: Fused filament fabrication (FFF) Compatible filament diameter: 2.85 mm Weight: Ultimaker 2+: 11.3 kg (24.9 lbs) Maximum power output: 221 W WE USED PURPLE PLA FILAMENT FOR THIS TESTS.
We started with the ANGLE file, sending the STL file to CURA software, and then saving the model as a new .stl (binary) file. Ultimaker 2+ has a very nice options menu. All the test were done at: 0.2 mm layer height 20% infill, witha grid pattern Print speed 60mm/s No supports No Adhesion type
Second, We used the BRIDGING file, sending the STL file to CURA software, and then saving the model as a new .stl (binary) file. Ultimaker 2+ has a very nice options menu. All the test were done at: 0.2 mm layer height 20% infill, witha grid pattern Print speed 60mm/s No supports No Adhesion type
Third, We used the THICKNESS file, sending the STL file to CURA software, and then saving the model as a new .stl (binary) file. Ultimaker 2+ has a very nice options menu. All the test were done at: 0.2 mm layer height 20% infill, witha grid pattern Print speed 60mm/s No supports No Adhesion type
Forth and last, We used the SURFACE FINISH file, sending the STL file to CURA software, and then saving the model as a new .stl (binary) file. Ultimaker 2+ has a very nice options menu. All the test were done at: 0.2 mm layer height 20% infill, witha grid pattern Print speed 60mm/s No supports No Adhesion type
We have in the workshop a ULTIMAKER 2+ filament based 3d printer. Overall, the ULTIMAKER 2+ 3D PRINTER is a magnificent desktop device for everyday prototypes, as well as small models. It can be used for architecture, industrial design and engineering, focusing in a small scale, quite rapid and nice quality finished product.
