Micro Label Tag/Name Badge - Snapmaker

Challenge: To create the best possible manageable key ring/name tag of the smallest possible size.

Background: Having previously completed these as a basic introduction task for 3D Printing and not wanting to rehash these again and again we challenged the students to come up with something slightly different.

The different perfectly showed the comparison between the Ultimaker2+ that we have used in the past and the Snapmaker that we are using now.   

The dimension of this print is 50mm across, 30mm high and printed to a depth of 5mm.   The lettering shown on the print is only 10mm high in places and just under 45mm across.   As shown in the picture the lettering can clearly be read and shown in the details.  Given the nature of the printer being used this would not have been possible with the Ultimaker 2+.

We have previously detailed these projects on the blog but never been able to create them to this (small) scale.
