3DOptimizer on the importance of 3D printing settings

Having started at a 3D printer company to support customers working with 3D printing parameters, today, 3DOptimizer enables much more. The company offers a software that aims to optimize the settings for FFF 3D printing in order to avoid faulty prints, increase the speed of printing and improve the mechanical strength of final parts. We were curious if optimizing printing parameters could be a potential solution for more effective additive manufacturing in the future. Therefore, we decided to discuss with Janis Grinhofs, Founder and CEO of 3DOptimizer.

3DN: Can you introduce 3DOptimizer?

3DN: Why was 3DOptimizer launched?

Initially, the project was started internally at a 3D printer company Mass Portal, since we simply needed a method to support customers with working settings. When we saw the results — that it works every time, without the need for the “guru” to be at the wheel, it became clear this could be beneficial for most printer users.
