02 / PURPOSE-BUILT IN CAD

DESIGNED
AS A PRINT.
FROM THE START.

Every part begins with the printer in mind. Print direction, visible surfaces and assembly are considered in CAD, before the first layer is laid down.

Part orientation is designed to bring out the best surface finish—so the engineering shows in the finished aircraft.

PRINT ORIENTATION

Each part has a direction.
Each surface has a purpose.

SURFACE FINISH

Visible surfaces considered
from the first CAD decision.

ASSEMBLY

Connections designed into
the model itself.

03 / THE GRAFITOMI CONNECTION

NO GLUE.
NO SCREWS.
JUST A TWIST.

A small component with a big job. Grafitomi’s proprietary twist connectors bring printed assemblies together with a clean, secure mechanical connection.

Purpose-designed for the kit.
Print. Fit. Twist. Lock.
