About Project

These lovely lamps can make your home look more like a forest! The lampshades are in a modern and simple shape. But from one side, there is a hole and a tiny animal is hiding there. This series is still being tested and we just printed some prototypes for the client.

Solution

  • Step 1: The client split the model into different parts with Nomad, and export the STL file for printing. Our engineer would help her examine the model.
  • Step 2: We arrange the parts in software and add necessary supports. Then 3D print them with SLA Generic Resin. The layer thickness we set is 0.05mm and we control the tolerance within 卤0.2 mm.
  • Step 3: When printing is completed, rinse the models with IPA and post-cure them with UV. Cut off all the supports, then polish with sandpaper.
  • Step 4: To make the surface look better, we spray some putty onto the models, then polish and paint them into matte white color with an airgun.
