PART BUILD PARAMETERS
The second step in preprocessing a model is to choose the part build parameters. The part build style will
determine the type of fill pattern used to build the part. The part interior style will determine whether the interior
of the part is solid or not. The support style will determine the type of supports.
1.
Select a part fill style.
Typically you will use the perimeter/rasters selection.
•
2.
Select a part interior style.
•
Solid - normal: will be stronger.
•
Sparse: will build faster and use less material.
•
Sparse - double dense: will build with twice the material for a stronger part.
3.
Select the Visible surfaces.
Fine rasters may improve surface finish while reducing build time on some geometries.
•
4.
Select a Support style.
