In this episode of Design for Mass Production 3D Printing, we tackle the challenge of manufacturing round 3D printed parts by designing a circular electrical enclosure.

We address common challenges in design for 3D printing, like small vents, thin features, and shallow curved top surfaces. We also provide valuable tips on modifying injection molded designs to be able to manufacture 3D printed electronics enclosures using mass production 3D printing. Learn why some features are difficult to print and how to eliminate or modify them to ensure a high-quality, durable final product.

About Slant 3D

🏭 High-Volume 3D Printing: Scalability Meets Flexibility
Slant 3D's Large-Scale 3D Print Farms utilize 1000's of FDM 3D printers working 24/7 to offer limitless scalability and unparalleled flexibility. Whether it's 100 or 100,000 parts, our system can handle it reliably, while still allowing for real-time design updates, ensuring products evolve with the times. This adaptability is key in today's fast-paced world.

🌿 Sustainable Manufacturing: Eco-Friendly Efficiency
Embrace a system that drastically reduces carbon emissions by eliminating carbon-intensive steps in the supply chain, such as global shipping and warehousing. Our approach minimizes this footprint, offering a more sustainable manufacturing option.

⚙️ Digital Warehouses: Parts On-Demand
Think of print farms as a "Digital Warehouse", meaning we can store your parts digitally on a server rather than physically on a shelf. parts are available on-demand, reducing the need for extensive physical inventory.
