• Optimizing designs for additive manufacturing (DFAM)
• Splitting models for printing and assembly
• Preparing STL/STEP files for production
• Reducing material usage and printing cost
Requirements:

• Understanding of 3D printing processes (SLS, SLA, FDM)
• Knowledge of wall thickness, tolerances, and supports
• Experience with STL repair and mesh optimization
