| Anisotropy Anisotropy refers to the directional variation in mechanical properties of a 3D printed object. In additive manufacturing, parts are typically strongest along the layer planes (X and Y axes) and weaker along the Z-axis due to the layer-by-layer construction. This property impacts the performance and durability of printed components, particularly under stress or load. Engineers must consider anisotropy when designing parts to ensure optimal strength and functionality. Techniques such as altering layer orientation, increasing infill density, or using post-processing methods can mitigate anisotropic effects, making it a critical factor in structural and functional part design. |
