The 3D printing combines accurate virtual 3D models with physical objects. In the past, architects usually used wood or foam to make scale models.But more and more people are realizing the benefits of 3D modeling. Here's why architects are joining the revolution in 3D printing.

1.Present your architecture models to clients Better.

     The 3D printing makes the design real and visible. and detailed scale models are convenient for discussing the design concept. Of course, the most important thing is to clients oriented.

2.Save time on building scale models

     The 3D printers can turn designs into tangible objects that reducing the time it takes to make scale models.Just input the 3D printing program into the printer, and the printer will complete the printing task automatically. The 3D printing is especially suitble if the design elements are complicated(hyperboloids).

     However, The 3D models can be designed using a program like SketchUp that can be directly connected to a 3D printer for printing after mastering the design rules for 3D printing models, then eliminating the need to create 3d-printable files from scratch. Time is money, so saving labor hours ultimately means saving money

3.The 3D printing models are good of quality and have many materials available.

     The days of rough and pixel 3D printing are over, Professional 3D printers can now produce architectural models with high detail and smooth surfaces. In addition, the widely selection of materials. The Polyamide (nylon plastic) is the material that architects use more often. The base color of scale model is usually gray. If color elements are needed, multi-color printing is the best choice. It is even possible to add different elements to the model, such as transparency, metals (steel, copper), etc.
