3Dprindimise
3Dprindimise is a framework for optimizing additive manufacturing processes with the goal of reducing variability and defects in 3D printed parts. It describes an integrated approach that couples design-for-manufacturing practices with closed-loop process control to minimize common issues such as warping, under-extrusion, surface roughness, and dimensional drift.
At its core, 3Dprindimise treats a print as a multi-parameter system and uses sensor data to adapt
Implementation generally comprises a control layer integrated with printer firmware or an external controller, a material
Applications range from hobbyist and education environments seeking higher print success rates to small-scale manufacturing and
Challenges include the need for compatible hardware, robust calibration, and validated models. The lack of universal
