Lattice Structures in 3D Printing
Lattice structures are networks of interconnected nodes arranged in repeating or gradually varying patterns called cells.
In various industries, such as automotive, medical, and sports, 3D-printed components featuring lattice or honeycomb patterns are becoming increasingly common.
Natural lattices, like honeycombs, snowflakes, fences, sponges, or even the Eiffel Tower, surround us.
These designs offer benefits for both part performance and production, but are rare in traditional manufacturing due to the complexity of the geometries.
Additive manufacturing enables the production of such complex geometries, making lattices and 3D printing a perfect match.
