Large components therefore require a lot of material, resulting in high costs and heavy weight. Alternatively, cavities can be produced layerwise to save material.

The diameter can be changed by controlling the internal pressure, regardless of whether the medium is a gas or a liquid. The higher stiffness of the tubular profile enables manufacturing without restrictions in three dimensions without supporting structures. This means that variable hollow cross-sections can be produced continuously, without tools, intrinsically (i.e. without layer-by-layer manufacturing) freely in all directions using 3D printing or robotics.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid tags\">\n\t\t<div class=\"main-content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"row intro\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 offset-lg-2 col-lg-8\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"parent":36796,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-37578","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/37578","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37578"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/37578\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37580,"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/37578\/revisions\/37580"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36796"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/highest-darmstadt.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37578"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
