FFF/FDM 3D PRINT 101- LAYER HEIGHT, INFILL & SUPPORT

Build 3D online(B3D) always help customer select the best setting for their model after check one by one manually. Our client do not need to worry the setting on 3D print.

Just in case if you interested to see how is the setup, what quality you could select. These are the commons setting for FDM/FFF 3D print technology.
​​Layer height – sometimes also called the “Z-axis resolution” has a major impact on both print times and overall surface finish of the printed object. Higher values lead to faster prints and more visible layers on the surface of the object. This effect is especially prominent on surfaces that are nearly parallel to the print bed. Most of the time, layer heights of 0.15mm - 0.20 mm are preferred. Lower layer height leads to more detailed prints (less noticeable layers), however, the printing time is extended. We use PrusaSlicer has a function for configuring variable layer height - it means we will help choose which parts of the object will have lower layers (detailed or sloped parts) and which parts can have increased layer height to achieve higher print quality and fastest print time.

Infill – affects the print time, durability of the printed object and filament consumed. Infill is set as a percentage, while 0 % means a completely hollow object. Usually, 10-20 % is used. It’s also possible to choose the infill pattern (see below).
Picture
Supports – scaffolding-like structures that support overhangs or parts that start mid-air. Supports are designed to be easy to remove, but they may leave marks on the model. Our goal is to minimize the number of supports by rotating (or even designing) the object to achieve an optimal orientation, where only a few (or none) supports are required. Fewer supports means faster printing and better overall look of the model.

Most of the time we will help to modify the model by cutting apart to avoid support ​and glue it back after print. example as below.
