Effects of part orientation on the 3D printing result
In 3D printing processes, the orientation of the components in the build space during the printing process plays a major role in the quality of the result. The HP Jet Fusion process does not require any support structures as it is a powder bed process. Capillary effects can occur during the printing process. The heat profiles of the individual components are also an important factor, so component orientation plays a role in the quality of the printed objects.
