Benefits
Save powder
Add draining holes to hollowed designs in order to remove excess powder and reduce powder consumption and production costs.
Control build temperature
Since a model with structures requires less scanning, you can keep the generated heat under control and reduce distortion during the build.
Enhance your design
Keep your model’s design intact while reducing its weight. Plus, for medical applications, you can create porous designs for bone and tissue ingrowth.
Freedom of design
Use the module’s structures library or design your own unit cell structures to create lattices.
Transform a solid design into a lightweight model
Create a structure with or without an outer shell.
