Infill

By Kim Barrazona

In order to 3D print objects with large geometric volumes quickly, and to save material, only the outer skin of objects are printed with solid material. The insides of objects are 3D printed in a open pattern that saves material and provides necessary structure. Infill patterns vary from grids to triangles to hexagons. The thickness of the skin of an object and the density of infill are variable.
