Bonjour, Je mets le sujet au bon endroit. Pour réaliser deux pièces articulées par un axe qui est fixe sur l une des deux pièces que faut il faire ? Déjà est possible d imprimer dans meme fichier les deux pieces qui seront indémodable ? Quelle technologie d impression? Le jeu à laisser pour permettre d avoir la pièce qui pivote autour de l autre et le nylon 12 est il possible ?Merci.

Hey , we’re looking for advice on achieving waterproof electronic card casings, since we’ve faced a few challenges lately. We’ve iterated several manufacturing processes: SLA, which resulted in warping due to thin walls, and MJF, where we removed the ESD constraint but still encountered issues with water ingress through porosity. A topical spray was tried to seal the MJF part, but the result was uneven, with a slightly sticky surface. Can anyone recommend a material or finish that would provide effective waterproofing while maintaining lightweight and cost-efficiency? We’d prefer to stick with additive methods for design flexibility and lower production volumes.

I’m looking for a material with the same flexibility as polypropylene in FDM printing.I need to make clip-on supports, therefore the flexibility allows to keep the shape and deform without breaking.

Hi everyone, I’m designing a structural component for a load-bearing assembly and need to ensure the CAD model is fully solid to avoid issues during manufacturing. What are the best practices for verifying that all points, curves, and vertices are properly connected and that the geometry consists only of closed shapes? Additionally, are there tools or methods to generate accurate technical illustrations from such a model to clearly communicate the design intent?
