I worked on the Fuse 1, a brand new benchtop Selective Laser Sintering 3D Printer launching for a tenth of the price of current SLS systems. I worked with various parts of the system hardware and software to improve the process of printing on a Fuse 1.
Specifically, I helped rebuild laser calibration processes with fewer sensors and faster runtime, allowing much improved user interaction and system accuracy. I also worked on optimizing thermal properties of the build chamber, maximizing print bed uniformity during heat up/cool down cycles and minimizing complexity of the heating system.
