We’re developing an advanced Grasshopper workflow for slicing and 3D printing footwear using TPU, and we’re looking for someone with experience in custom G-code generation to join our team.
Project Scope
-
Development of custom Grasshopper scripts for model slicing and toolpath generation
-
Creation and optimization of G-code specifically for TPU material
-
Material behavior analysis and print parameter optimization
-
Integration of findings into automated workflows
Technical Requirements
-
Strong proficiency in Grasshopper scripting
-
Experience with custom G-code generation and modification
-
Understanding of FDM 3D printing principles and slicing parameters
-
Ability to analyze and optimize material-specific printing parameters
We’re actively conducting material tests to characterize foaming TPU’s behavior during printing. This understanding will inform the development of our custom slicing and G-code generation workflows.
Collaboration Type
- Contract/consulting basis
- Remote collaboration possible
- Timeline and compensation to be discussed based on experience
Please respond with:
- Your relevant experience in Grasshopper scripting and G-code generation
- Examples of similar projects, particularly any involving non-standard materials
- Thoughts on approaching the unique challenges of TPU
