Understanding Channel Letter Printing and the PrintUP 3D Printing Software (Part 1)

understand channel letter printing

Now that we are using a new program, it is always important to understand for what purpose we will be using it for.

When it comes to 3d printing there are two popular types available, but for PrintUP we will be looking at the Channel Letter Printing.

This video is part of a Mini-Series.

Alright guys, in today's mini series, we're gonna be diving into a new programme called Print Up and this is for some 3D printing. But before that, let's have a quick intro first, so today's video can be found on softwaretraining.co.za. We have short and easy to watch problem solving videos, and we also have daily updates. Otherwise we're back to the tutorial. So now when it comes to the current programme with print up, we're gonna be looking like I said at some 3D printing. But it is important to note that this is not your conventional 3D printing. Or should I say, um, the 3D when it comes to, um, uh, full, detailed models and so forth that you're seeing also popular. Now, this will will be, uh, related to channel lettering. So this is commonly used where, um, it could be steel as well, but for the printing will obviously not be steel, but it, as you can see in these samples, where they basically do a, um uh, print up of on a two D type plane going upwards. And then, um, you'll channel the letters. Maybe you want to put some lights in it. It's very popular for signage for, um, different, uh, companies. As you can see here, they like putting lights in it. And, uh, yeah, it's quite a powerful tool. This it is also free, which is very convenient. And, um, if you don't know any 3D modelling, it is ideal because you can still use it. You can quickly create some good designs just based off, um, fonts and so forth. Now, let's just look at a quick example. So this is from the actual company aim .co.za. And this is the machine they cover. But this is like the kind of the process, so it will be starting on a flat plane, and then this thing will slowly start building its way higher and higher, and then eventually you can even put multiple colours in one print, which could look pretty good as you can see over here. And then, um, we're also gonna be looking into it in the future. You can even do some bevels, and then you can add, like maybe a what do you call it? Uh, per so if you want to put lights on the inside. You can do that as well. So this is very handy, very powerful. And like I mentioned, it is free, which is great. But yeah, we'll dive into all of that in some future videos. So for now, I thought, it's just a good overview of what um print up is for. So like I said, it's not for your traditional or for the should. I rather say the modern 3D printing, but rather for channel lettering, which is pretty much, um, uh, building up shapes and upwards shape or upwards manner. But yeah, otherwise, before you head on to the next videos. If we go here to softwaretraining.co.za. You guys will notice we've got a variety of different Softwares we do cover, and you can also isolate your search on the top, right? If you do not, however, find the training videos you're looking for, just simply fill in the mini form of here to request the video. And then, uh, you can tell us what you're looking for and we'll do our best to try and make that for you. But otherwise thanks, guys for watching and cheers
