The analysing process is displayed and calculated results and analysis control window appears. Analysis Control Window Controls the thickness. Display Overhang function on/off. -
Page 35: Overhang Analysis Function
Overhang Analysis Function In 3D printing, it’s very favorable if object is perpendicular to bed surface, more horizontal the shape is, the more disadvantageous it is. When the angle in horizontal direction is small, supports are needed. The Overhang analysis function calculates the geometry’s inverse draft and notifies the user of possible problems that might occur during an actual printing. - Page 36 Select 3D model With the 3D model loaded, click on the model to select. In Analysis menu, select “Optimal Printing Direction” and a window similar to the following appears. Calculate Graph for each evaluation criteria Calculation for each 6 different direction would be initiated once the user clicks on the Caculate button.
- Page 37 Results of 6 different directions of the model will be displayed, and each direction will be ranked on the evaluation results. Following the results of the evaluation, the most optimal direction will be graded accordingly,and a graph of each evaluation analysis can be examined. The taller the graph, the higher the scores are achieved for the corresponding evaluation criteria.
