Heat treatment makes 3D prints stronger

Heat-treating a filament-printed 3D print can make the print stronger by reducing stresses, and increase the operating temperature of the print. The penalty is a few percent shrinkage across the print and some growth in height. For a given batch of print material on a certain printer, these percentages are apparently predictable, allowing them to be ...
