The ability to 3D print screw threads is crucial for creating durable fasteners. With advancements in additive manufacturing technology, users can now easily produce custom thread patterns using a wide range of materials. Printing screws that require significant overhangs presents a challenge, especially when those overhangs occur at precise angles such as 45 degrees. These specific geometric configurations demand careful consideration and calculation to ensure a solid foundation for the print. One viable approach to handling 3D printed screws with steep inclines is to divide complex prints into separate components or sections, focusing on gradually increasing complexity within each individual component.
