The METHOD Mechanical Gripper benchmark print challenges dimensional accuracy as a fully-functional, print-in-place assembly. Leveraging Performance PVA supports, the design exemplifies the notion of unrestricted geometric freedom.
Download this free STL to see if your desktop 3D printer can compare with MakerBot METHOD's ability to achieve unrestricted geometric freedom.
Key Benchmark Print Challenges:
Unrestricted Geometric Freedom - challenges capabilities of PVA material to achieve true freedom from part orientation and support material constraints.
Complex Overhangs without Scarring - demonstrates uncompromised surface quality and tight tolerances regardless of part complexity.
About the METHOD Benchmark Print Series:
The METHOD Benchmark Print Series is a collection of benchmark test prints created by professional industrial designers and mechanical engineers. They were used extensively throughout the METHOD quality testing process to ensure optimal dimensional accuracy and precision in finished METHOD printed parts.
“The dimensional accuracy that we're getting with the Method compared to any industrial FDM is as good or better”
