Stick Tech has published a patent application for making it easier to remove finished 3D printed parts from the build plate. The system uses an elastomer-coated flexible ejection mechanism. https://www.fabbaloo.com/news/stick-tech-patent-targets-easier-print-removal #3Dprint #3Dprinting #Materials

Researchers have developed an infrared nozzle preheating technique that improves PEI extrusion strength and reduces warping without requiring a 200C heated chamber. The method addresses a key challenge in FFF printing of high-temperature materials like PEI, which typically needs expensive oven-style printers. https://www.fabbaloo.com/news/ir-nozzle-preheat-lifts-pei-fff-strength-stability #3Dprint #3Dprinting #Materials

Yesterday I shared this.
By me. Hormuz as a taste of the coming, bigger slowdown.
