How to Store Your 3D Printer Filaments Properly

Different materials interact differently with dust, air, and moister. Depending on the material, your filaments need to be conserved and stored properly in specific ways to be able to conserve their quality and physical properties.  While leaving a filament out in the open overnight won’t have a detrimental effect, suboptimal long-term storing conditions can decrease …

FDM vs SLA: Which One is the Better Option for You?

In public discussion, 3D printing is often referred to as a single entity that seemingly doesn’t have different subcategories. But actually, 3D printing can be considered as more of an umbrella term that can be used to describe several different manufacturing technologies. The fundamental difference between other manufacturing methods and additive manufacturing is a 3D …

3D Printing vs CNC: Which One is the Better Option for You?

Thanks to the developments in manufacturing technology, we now have access to more methods of production than we ever did before. While old school technologies like injection molding and pressing are reliable to this very day, they do not offer the flexibility that the newer, computer-aided methods do. If you are looking for one of …

What is an STL File and How is it Created?

STL extension, which stands for “Stereolithography”, is a type of format obtained by dividing the surfaces of 3D designed models into many triangles in a mathematical order, and these triangles represent the 3-dimensional model with three points. The detail of the model increases in direct proportion to the number of these triangles. The STL file type is the most widely used 3D printing format. STL files store the volume information of 3D models.
