✨ Surface Finish Secrets for DMLS/SLS Prints! ✨

DMLS/SLS parts rock straight-off-the-printer (~8.75 Ra μm finish), but want that "presentation side" smooth? Master these analysis & design hacks:

⬆️ Orientation Wins
Upward-facing surfaces = sharper edges & superior quality. Downward? Rougher—rotate your design!

📐 Angle It Right
Keep surfaces more than 20° from horizontal to dodge "stepped" layers from thick slices. Shallower = stair-step city!

🔧 Post-Processing Power
For ultra-smooth, polish after printing. Material, layer height & orientation all play in.
