Abstract

The acceleration of the changes in technology in a revolutionary magnitude generates innovative production methods. Enabling the employment of these production methods in industry began as a result of encouraging the sector in this area and sharing academic experiences with it. While the designs created with these applications are seminal and inspirational, lack of methodological knowledge and sources on production process and the vagueness during it could be restrictive in terms of innovative method attempts. In this practice, it was aimed to create original textile surface designs by using 3D printers. Within the practice, textile surfaces designed with experimental methods were produced with 3D production methods. In production process, as 3D production methods FDM, SLA and SLS were employed and as production material PLA, PA and Tango Black were used and the positive and negative results obtained were analysed. It is thought that using 3D printing technology in innovative textile designs and productions can give unlimited opportunities to designers and the knowledge and experiences gained from the practices performed with innovative approaches can be beneficial to the researchers interested in the area.
