Design example walkthrough
- Designing a part to be manufactured with any technology requires a bit of thinking, both about the requirements of the part and the limitations of the fabrication technique. - In this movie, we'll summarize the steps involved in designing a part for additive manufacturing with resin. We've already gone into detail on most of these steps, but we're providing an end-to-end case study of a simple hollow cube to tie it all together. - [Man] Like most resin prints, you can see that this is a small print. It was designed to be hollow, with two small holes for resin to drain. - [Woman] First, you'll need to decide what resin to use. Depending on your printer, this choice might be limited. The choice of resin will determine how strong your print is, whether it's brittle or flexible, its thermal characteristics, and its other mechanical properties. Resin choice will also strongly influence cost, particularly if you're producing a…
