The Quality of Large Format 3D Printers

The Quality of Large Format 3D Printers

Despite their high cost, large format 3D printers are often criticized for their poor quality. This is because larger format printing introduces new challenges, such as warping and cracking. These challenges are exacerbated by the increased size of the print, which makes it more difficult to control the temperature and humidity during the printing process.

Additionally, larger format prints require more support structures, which can be difficult to remove and can leave behind rough surfaces. These factors can lead to a decrease in overall print quality, making large format 3D printers less desirable for certain applications.
