Print cooling is not always necessary when 3D printing. It largely depends on the material used. When printing ABS, for example, it is common practice to either run the fan at low power or disable it...
There are instances where it is necessary to cut away plastic for example to remove supports or any excess material. It could be your design might need to have holes or teeth as when designing a gear...
Glowforges are subtractive CNC machines. Laser cutting is one of several types of subtractive manufacturing where material is cut from a solid block to get the desired part. 3D printers on the other...
In this comprehensive guide, we share everything you need to know about filament used for 3D pens. We also look at what surfaces a 3D pen can print on, and what safety precautions you should take...
Nozzle sizes range from the ultra-thin 0.1 millimeter to the thicker 1 millimeter diameter. Thinner diameters offer finer details while thicker diameters offer better print speed. The standard 0.4...
Resin printing consists of three main printing processes, namely stereolithography (SLA), digital light processing (DLP) and masked stereolithography (MSLA). All these processes use light to harden...
