When thermoplastics solidify during printing, shrinkage happens. Uneven cooling rates create uneven contraction. As parts of the plastic shrink at different rates, internal tensions build. The layers pull and stretch against each other, and warping and detachment can distort the materials. Warping threatens even experienced makers, ranking among the most common
