Lighting system - Exploration of the Vase Mode
Description
3D printing has been predicted as the next industrial revolution for a long time. Still the technology has not made the final step into mass manufacturing, primarily due to its limitations in precision and efficiency. However, the printing setting Vase Mode shows promise as a potential solution to overcome these limitations. By enabling printing in a continuous spiralized line, this setting produces cleaner results while significantly accelerating the process. LAYER is a lighting system designed to be produced using Vase Mode, taking advantage of its unique features. The distinct layers of the prints thereby serve a functional role, utilizing the spiralized structure to seamlessly unite all components through screwing.
