I'm looking into easy fixture solutions and was thinking about 3D printed fixtures. Would that be possible. I'm wondering if I could make some fixture arms, or even some standoffs, or if needed some complex fixtures. That being said, what filament would work well for both precision and accuracy as well as durability. PLA and ABS look like good candidates. Or am I wasting my time?
I did some contract work for a company 4 years ago, that would make 3D printed fixtures for the CMM. The fixtures work surprisingly well on a Global 5.7.5 with analog scanning using a SP25. The fixtures where for injection molded plastic parts.
