Meshy.ai printability test cuts major 3D print defects from 44% to 8%

SILICON VALLEY -- November 13, 2026 -- Meshy.ai's Make Printable feature cut the share of 3D prints with major missing features or holes from 44% (11 of 25) to 8% (2 of 25) in a blinded FDM printing test run by the University of Massachusetts Amherst's Advanced Digital Design and Fabrication facility (ADDFab), the company said. That is 9 fewer failed prints, a drop of about 82% by our calculation, measured on prompts Meshy.ai selected to be hard to print.
