High-Speed Printing with Reinforced Filaments

Raise3D’s Hyper FFF® technology sets a milestone in high-speed 3D printing, integrating optimized hardware, software, and materials. Within this framework, Hyper Core filaments stand out for their innovative design, which concentrates fibers in a conductive inner core, accelerating melting and improving interlayer adhesion. The result is stronger parts, with better surface finish and reduced nozzle wear, even at high speeds.

3D printing with supports

In order to be able to print in 3D FFF each layer on top of the previous one, it is usual to use printed support structures that serve as a support base for the previous elements. These structures are known as supports and in this post we will see each type, their configuration parameters and the problems that soluble supports can present.
