MULTI-MATERIAL 3D PRINT
Benefits:
Custom Regions
Any rigid region, any flexible region. Properties you want, only where you want them. Design for function, not material.
Durable
Encapsulate rigid materials in super-tough TPU for unbreakable parts.
Tactile
60 Shore A, with infill, feels like a rubber band. Incredible tactile feel, straight off the machine. Great for padding.
Finish
Solid support material (not scaffold) makes a smooth bottom finish. Automatic, clean tool changes.

Process (more details in manual):
1.
Generate CAD file with all regions
-
Option: use Diabase scanner to digitize footprint
-
Define rigid and flexible regions, generate flat-bottom support
2.
Generate toolpaths (slice file)
-
Use different process (and tool) for different regions
-
Support cradle is a process, not auto-generated
3.
Run G-code file through Diabase Wizard to speed up print
-
Preheats upcoming tools
-
Combines tools within each layer
4.
Load compatible materials and print
-
Certain combinations work better than others. TPU+PVA is good
-
ABS works well inside TPU encapsulant
