On this edition of 30 on 3D, Eric Alexander, Application Engineer, shows us how to create matte and glossy texture finishes for your design with support material using GrabCAD Print Pro.
Support-as-Material reduces the cost of bulky parts by using support material at their core. Create matte and glossy combined texture finishes on your design to print a dual glossy and matte surface. You can also improve the stability of tall parts with enforced support placed beneath a sacrificial shell, preventing the potential domino effect when printing multiple tall parts on one build.Â
