Question

fillets
use the information below to answer the question.
reducing stress concentrations on edges and corners before printing can ensure a
better print. this can be done with the use of fillets (also known as radii)
and chamfers. a fillet is a rounded corner used on 3d prints to reduce stresses. a
chamfer is a technique used to cut an outside corner to a 45 - degree angle. these
design techniques also apply to other structures such as concrete and steel.
most technologies will create a natural fillet. with fused filament fabrication, a fillet
the width of the nozzle is naturally made. in selective laser sintering, a natural fillet
of 0.4 mm (the same width as the laser beam) will be on the corners and edges. fillets
and chamfers can be used for inside corners as well to help mitigate the stress in the
design. this is part of the 3d mesh before it goes to the printer.
in terms of 3d printing, what is a chamfer?
a technique used to cut an outside corner to a 45 - degree angle
a crosscut made through the center of a 3d print
a type of metal support structure used for 3d prints
a process of using a uv light to cure a print

Explanation:

The text clearly states that a chamfer is a technique used to cut an outside corner to a 45 - degree angle.

Answer:

a technique used to cut an outside corner to a 45 - degree angle
