Primary Function: Ubuchule Bokwenza Ilaphu DefeXtiles bubuchule bokwenza ilaphu obuvelisa amalaphu abhityileyo nawa gobayo kwiiprinta ezisemgangathweni ezizezobude, ububanzi kunye nokuphakama (3D). Le ndlela ilawula ukukhutshwa okungaphantsi kwento ukuze kwakheke amaqhuma amancinci anemixokelelwane ecikizekileyo phakathi kwawo. Iigebhu ezivelayo ezenzeka rhoqo zinika inkangeleko ebonisa ukwaluka, ukuphefumla, ukuguquguquka kunye nokolulekayo, nangona kusetyenziswa izinto eziqinileyo ezinjenge-polylactic acid. Ilaphu liprintwa ngokuma ngqo kwibhedi yokuprinta, ngoko ke iimilo ezinamathwathwa, ezijikelezayo kunye nezintsonkothileyo zingenziwa. Ukusetyenziswa kubandakanya iimpahla, iindawo zonxibelelwano eziphathekayo kunye nezinto zokudlala.

Olu luyilo olumangalisayo luphumelele imbasa yoyilo lwesilivere kwifashoni, isinxibo kunye nokhuphiswano loyilo lwesambatho. Ngokuqinisekileyo kuya kufuneka ubone iipotifoliyo yoyilo lwesilivere esiphumelele ukufumana ezinye izinto ezintsha, ezintsha, ezendalo kunye nefashoni yoyilo, iimpahla kunye noyilo lwempahla.
