Warping Warping is a common 3D printing defect where parts deform or lift from the build plate due to uneven cooling and thermal contraction. It affects dimensional accuracy, layer bonding, and surface finish. Warping is prevalent in high-temperature filaments like ABS, Nylon, and Polycarbonate. Proper bed adhesion, heated chambers, and gradual cooling minimize warping. Advanced slicing software adjusts brim, raft, and support settings for enhanced stability. Proper print orientation, infill patterns, and temperature control prevent warping, ensuring reliable and high-quality prints. |
