On this edition of 30 on 3D, Cameron Williams, Sr. R&D Engineer, explains how he used the new Smart Insert feature from GrabCAD Print Pro to 3D print his replica of the Infinity Gauntlet.
Smart Insert enables users to bring a new level of interactivity to their prototypes and products. With pause-resume combined with air voids design, Smart Insert allows for the addition of various elements like lights, buttons, magnets, and electronic components, to be directly placed within the print.
It’s particularly valuable in creating functional prototypes for consumer electronics where built-in sensing is required and for easier assembly. Smart Insert is a powerful tool for early identification of design flaws and offers unprecedented complexity and freedom in design, such as functional integration and aesthetic embellishments.
