How 3D Printed Lattice Structures Improve Mechanical Properties What are lattice structures? Lattice material: The performance of It is also observed that parts can be Lattice structures are essentially infill the part depends on the material the highly flexible, elastic and experience patterns that structure the internal engineer chooses while incorporating lower failure rates when 3D printed geometry of a 3D printed part. lattice structure. Large lattice with large-cell lattice structures. Engineers instead of 3D printing solid structures are normally not These lattice structures are some of block of plastic or metal use recommended to be 3D printed with the most impressive things that can interlocking patterns that are elastic materials as they are lead to be done through 3D printing. We at partially hollow. Lattice structures sagging of parts. amace solutions have worked when designed properly, can greatly extensively with customers to improve the mechanical properties of develop lattice structures for various a part, making it lighter and stronger. Lattice Structures: The applications ranging from automotive to general engineering. We look Lattice structures are used to reduce Mechanical Benefits forward to producing high-quality weight without sacrificing stability By tuning parameters, such as cell lattice parts for your applications and integrity of parts. geometry, orientation and 3D printing through our additive manufacturing machine parameters, lattice services. structures can exhibit properties that Design considerations are unachievable by their parent materials. Engineers realize benefits There are almost no limitations when such as weight reduction, improved it comes to designing of lattice part strength and shock absorption structures. The overlapping beams of by incorporating lattice structures the Eiffel Tower is the most famous into 3D printed parts. A part with an example for lattice structure, the internal lattice structure contains less overlapping beams form stable and material than an equivalent solid hollow structure. Through 3D printing part. Less material translates to less it would be possible to replicate such mass, which is a huge advantage for structures. Lattice patterns can be industries such as aerospace, where generated by lattice generation tools reducing just a few grams can make a that automatically generate lattice huge difference to the part patterns based on the parameters 3D printed lattice structures performance as well as bring about selected by the user. savings in fuel expenditure. The weight saving can also improve the Cell structure: The most common cell overall strength-to-weight ratio. structures include cubic, stars, Aviation companies such as Airbus octagons, hexagons, diamond and and Boeing have been conducting tetrahedron. Based on specific extensive research on light-weighting application, multiple shapes can be parts through lattice structures. combined. The cell structure affects Hollow parts with lattice structures how a part will behave in terms of can actually be stronger than the mechanical factors. solid equivalents. Improved shock absorption and low impact stresses Cell orientation: The angle with are some of the advantages one can which cell is printed can affect the infer by incorporating lattice success of print because ultimately structures. this influences the performance of the part.
