Togliatti Surface

prusaprinters

<p>Math Art: Togliatti proved that a 3D quintic surface has as most 22 normal intersections. Later on others found the generating equation which produces a Togliatti surface. "quintic surface" means the formula, which contains terms K[j]<em>x^a</em> y^b* z^c is such that for any given term, a+b+c &lt;= 5 .</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>AnyCubic Vyper</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>Doesn't Matter</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>Because the bottom consists of 5 separate sections, I recommend either a raft or a brim of at least 4 mm to ensure they all stay in place.</p></div> How I Designed This =================== <p>I started with the STL at <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:3D_model_of_Togliatti_surface_(w%3D1).stl">https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:3D_model_of_Togliatti_surface_(w%3D1).stl</a> . That's zero-thickness, so I used Meshmixer's Extrude function. I then added some "strengtheners" here and there to ensure printability. You can un-combine those parts if desired but I don't recommend it.</p> </p> Category: Math Art
