Lasercut tests

Having found the material I thought would perform best, I wanted to create a small sample to see if my material would lend itself to the interlocking module I designed on Rhino. I took some agar samples to study what cutting settings would be needed for my material.

Lasecut settings

Biomaterial Speed Max Power Min Power
A 40 80 50
B 50 50 50
C 60 50 60
D 70 60 50
E 50 40 50

In testing with the lasercut machine, I realized that the machine settings that worked best with my material was the D test

Sample in Agar (sulfur and iron oxide)

I tested my materials on a small scale and it seems to work the sample created

I designed my interlocking module on Rhino for my small bioplastic sample. the module later will be replicated so as to get longer strips.
