About Lattice Structures in 3D Printing
Lattice structures are networks of interconnected nodes arranged in repeating or gradually varying patterns called cells.
In various products, such as automotive parts, medical implants, running shoes, and hiking backpacks, 3D-printed components featuring lattice or honeycomb patterns are becoming increasingly common.
These designs offer benefits for both part performance and production.
Natural lattices, like honeycombs, snowflakes, fences, sponges, or the Eiffel Tower, surround us constantly.
Additive manufacturing enables the production of complex geometries, making lattices and 3D printing a perfect match.
