First off, what’s a Maggy? Maggy is a small wearable device helping you to maintain social distancing while keeping your privacy. It creates a sound and vibration notification whenever the distance between its users becomes too small. The reason why Maggy relied on a combination between a small wearable device and an optional mobile application, is manifold. On the one hand, there’s accuracy – Standard smartphone Bluetooth chips have an accuracy up to approximately 1 to 2 meters, whereas Maggy contains state-of-the-art Bluetooth 5.1 and 5.2 chips, characterized by accuracy of approximately 10 to 15 centimeters.

Could you imagine a product made all in one piece? We can, because SLS 3D printing technology makes it possible to print very complicated structures in just one take. But in real life, we are surrounded by objects made from a lot of parts that require to be connected somehow. Designer, even knowing the possibilities of SLS, sometimes needs to create models that are a part of something bigger. From this article, you will learn how to design connections for 3D printed, SLS models.

Motivation of adjusting the printing parameters

As mentioned in the previous articles, there is a wide variety of polymer powders suitable for the SLS technology. You may ask, how come that the materials have such different properties? Polyamide (PA) is strong and resistant while thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is elastic and rubber-like. To answer those questions you need to zoom in into the molecular structure of the polymers.
