Figure 7.3 shows the computed final distortion from the basic analysis (m1.in) after the part is removed from the build plate, and after the support material has been removed.

(b) After support material removal from the component
Figure 7.4 shows the computed final distortion from the support structure failure analysis using *UTSR (m2.in) after the part is removed from the build plate, and after the support material has been removed. Note the increase of distortion and elongation of failed elements. This phenomenon is shown more clearly in Figure 7.5.
