printing significant undercuts without support?
For some reason I cant get my brain wrapped around this concept. Would it be possible to print parts with significant undercuts without support by setting the entire printer at a 45 degree angle? You'd have to be aware how the part is plated, and not all parts could be printed this way, but some could, no?

Re: printing significant undercuts without support?
It might be easier to rotate the part appropriately.

The BlackBelt system puts the Z-axis at a 45 degree angle:

Mainly to allow for an infinite Y-axis, but at the same time it is said to be able to make longer overhangs.
More to the point perhaps: there are systems that rotate the print bed. It is called 5-axis printing:
