Figure 5. Design and fabrication of test parts.

Figure 5

A very simple model of a cylinder was created in OpenSCAD and exported in STL format. (A) The G-code toolpath visualization of test part in Cura. The slicing engine was set to a 0.4 mm wall width (equal to the diameter of the nozzle), cooling fans inactive, no infill, a top and bottom layer height of zero, and a spiralized “Joris Mode” outer wall. (B) Test parts were then 3D printed on abraided and flamed aluminum foil at 220 °C with a feed rate of 50 mm/s.
