Improved and Open Source: Non-Planar Infill for FDM
1 min read
Summary
A new post-processing script that strengthens FDM prints by implementing non-planar, interlocking sine wave deformations in both infill and walls has been developed by TenTech and shared on YouTube and GitHub.
The open-source script can be used with a range of standard slicers and uses Python and G-code, requiring no firmware modifications.
The technology removes layer break points and encourages interlayer grip, allowing for adjustable amplitude, frequency and direction.
The developer is seeking real-world strength tests for the innovation and is welcoming feedback from engineers and testers.
The script is available at github.com/TengerTechnologies/Bricklayers/blob/main/NonPlanarInterlockingWalls.py.
