3D laser scanners take images of physical objects and turn them into digital models, which you can view and modify in CAD software before sending them to your 3D printer. You gain precise measurements, complex geometries, and detailed textures from real-world items without laborious manual drafting, measuring, and drawing. Scanning

PLA is the most suitable material when you require strength, stiffness, and low costs, in builds that aren’t exposed to heat or sustained mechanical stress – think decorative models, prototypes, jigs, and educational projects. Another advantage to printing PLA is that it captures excellent detail and dimension accuracy, tolerances of

PLA filament can break during storage or print, ruining your builds and significantly increasing production costs. You might notice sudden snaps midway through complex models or discover brittle spools that crumble when handled. Moisture, quality variations, mechanical stress and temperature fluctuations all contribute to filament failure. The good news is

The FX20 transforms manufacturing floors with high-temp engineering materials reinforced with continuous fibre. Continuous fibre reinforcement builds stronger, stiffer, and more durable parts than filled and unfilled plastics by reinforcing a part’s perimeter, select features, or entire layers with carbon fibre. The FX20 also prints ULTEM™ 9085 – a high-strength,

Your Bambu Lab X1E printer includes three build plate options because each material and print job has different surface requirements. The Textured PEI’s rough surface creates an incredible mechanical grip, perfect for materials that typically warp or detach. Meanwhile, Smooth PEI is essential when you need parts with machined-looking finishes
