3D Printing creates a three dimensional structure using a layer- by- layer method. Different pieces of equipment will use different materials and have different size and resolution specifications.

Solidscape Wax 3D Printer 3d-wax-printer |
The Solidscape 3d Wax Printer is an extrusion printer capable of printing wax molds with 6 um precision and a minimum feature size of 200 um. Molds can be melted at 100 ºC. Typical printing times are 5 min/mm^3, not including calibration and cleaning steps at the beginning of each print (~1 hr). Using .stl files for 3d model input, the helper program 3ZWorks creates a .3zs job file which can be directly loaded into the printer via flashdrive. |
