Most likely the butterfly hinge is the easiest hinge to print in the FFF process. Figure 9 shows a typical design of a butterfly hinge. Note the hinge length, thickness and radial components. Figures 10 and 11 show the resulting 3D print of the design in nylon.
Step 8: Place Fabric. Place your fabric on top of the print. If placing a laser cut woven, center the print base with the laser cut holes. For a stretchy mesh, like the power mesh, tape one side down then slightly stretch the fabric while you tape down the opposite side.
Nylon. Likely the next easiest material to print with, Nylons are significantly more durable than PETGs but at the cost of higher shrinkage and more wear on the printer. The temps required to print this are at the top of the Ender 3s range and the printer will wear out quickly if run constantly in this manner.
For pure nylon filaments, you’ll need to heat your hot end to at least 270 °C or above to effectively print with it, which is substantially hotter than other materials. Stock Creality 3D printers can only reach 260 °C since they use PTFE tubing to route the filament to the nozzle, which starts to melt above 260 °C.
Also known as graphite fiber, most carbon fiber 3D printing uses FDM 3D printers or similar technologies to print tough parts, layer-by-layer, for industrial and prosumer uses. However, some SLS 3D printers can print carbon-reinforced nylon powders. History of Carbon Fiber
Step 11: Removing the Plastic Parts. This step was not intended to be done in fact. I was planning to use the 3d printed parts with the reinforcing inside them. But while I sanded one of them, the printed skin at the outside of one corner just broke off and the rest peeled off very easily.
