Basically it has to be noted here that it is not really worth to model threads for 3D printing in plastic. 😉 Sure, there are plugins for many CADs, so that you can model threads, but the only method I would try is 3D printing in metal. But I suppose…
“Anisotropy” means that the properties of a material depend on the direction in which the force is applied. The 3D printing process tends by nature to build up a weakness along the Z axis because the connections between the layers are not so strong. This peculiarity of the 3D printing…
Ben learnt the mechanical craft from scratch in the workshop and then as a technical merchant. He then worked for a few years as a database programmer.
Then he studied mechanical engineering.
And he has completed some CAS trainings in Data Science.
Today he develops special machines for a special machine construction company in Switzerland.
In 2014 he founded the FabLab at Winterthur, Switzerland.
He's main hobbies are his girlfriend, inventing new things, testing new gadgets, the FabLab Winti, 3d-Printing, geocaching, playing floorball, take some photos (www.belichtet.ch) and mountain biking.
