Now you can build big parts that won't weigh you down. Choose Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) for your digital manufacturing project and ask about sparse fill. Our sparse fill build option builds your parts with a honeycomb-like interior, reducing the overall weight by more than 50%.

Our sparse build option is great for large, thick walled parts, prototyping models and packaging molds. It is our recommended build option for prototype thermoforming molds and sand casting patterns because it creates porosity that benefits vacuum draw.

What you see is not what you get. In this case, it's true. The exterior surfaces of your parts remain completely unaltered, so your parts look as if they were built as a solid form.
