Layer 0.15mm, 0.4 nozzle, speed as written normal 80mm/s, xy 500 mm/s, z 16.7 mm/s, others (infill etc) 50-80% underspeed.
Not using standard PLA but PLA Layer from this company.

Splitted a big model using NetFabb Basic (just plane split) 3d-Coat (plane+join).
Troubles are coming from the printing part: the plane on the bed (normally the cut plane, since it's an organig...
I've cranked out I think : I did use the DAVID software to manually align the two part and next fuse it together.
Using GOM Inspect for cleaning and hole closing, really fast and high quality. ...
From SLS-3 scanner I got two faces of a butterfly, I need later to enlarge, cut, 3d print and paint it.
Problem is being almost 2D I can't find enough overlapping points to perform automathic...
Create eyewear bow from zero would be long, the curve is changing differently in the upper and lower side, also the thickness is changing in different parts and from top to bottom.
What would you...
So SpaceClaim it's really good but simply cost too much for the features.
Rhino does have the same features (mesh import, slicing, countours blending, resurfacing) but I didn't find myself...
For the propeller might be the best idea, for the eyewear I'm now working on having a 3d mesh as a guide is really useful.
Every case will need to right tools.
I was able to use DAVID sw to create the full STL model and print it.
Now back on my original task of RE the eyewear, tested SpaceClaim and a bit Rhino.
Pretty similar features (STL cutting and...
Looking here and there appear this is a standard operation in game engines, where you need low poly models looking as good as the high poly modeled and painted in tools such as zbrush.
Discovered...
Did have a 6M poly model coming from the scanner.
Will use it for printing but also want to create a web version, to be shown in browser using Sketchfab or similar webGL render.
Using Meshmixer...
In this case any suggestion for a good tool?
I think I did now understand the CAD topic, about mesh there are many more options, I did have on my laptop for testing Meshmixer, Netfabb Private,...
Useful suggestions, thanks. Using SpaceClaim we will have RE tools available, using "clean" Rhino without any RE addon such as RhinoResurf or Mesh2Surface will be difficult? Trying to understand the...
Attached the first test scan, only of the frontal part without the temples
Difficult to understand the complete workflow.
In that perspective you suggest we need to use a CAD and remodel from scratch the object, using the mesh just as reference to ease the work.
I suppose...
I think this is the 3D application of this mathematical concept.
Having searched myself for feature rich, easy to use and cheap solutions for organic modelling I can suggest to consider Moment Of Inspiration for surface modelling (the developer created some time...
Ok so received the scanner we are testing it.
First work before the propeller one is a pair of eye wear.
Understood before thinking about RE we need to have a clean mesh to work with.
I can use...
We will try using CATIA next days with some test files (we need to still receive the scanner).
A bit scared to approach such a monster parametric solid modeller without any training nor experience...
So our first work appear to be really the scan of a nautic propeller. Goal: reproduce the 3d CAD design since it's an old model and no 3d model is available, so to be able to produce it using metal...
This is just a first request and we still need to receive the scanner, so we need to qualify the request itself.
Do you refuse to manufacture/print the turbine stage or to scan it?
Downloaded and appear to be nice. Tried importing some example of DAVID scans in obj format and is working fine. Now just need to understand how to use this scans as a guide for modelling.
...
Really informative thanks.
Returning into solid modelling I did discovered DesignSpark Mechanical, appear to be the stripped down free version of SpaceClaim. Any reason to don't start with that? I...
We are not doing minime for sure...the first object we have request to scan is the propeller of an amphibious military vehicle.
Giving cleaned mesh to CAD staff is normally enough to enable them...
David sw will generate the mesh also? I did think he generate only the point cloud, even if with alignment.
About the others all are for sure wonderful sw but also expensive and difficult to learn....
Wrap and Design are in the $Nx000 range as I understood, something more than we want to invest for a start, considering this is not the company primary business but a new line of services we need to...
