Parameter Definition
Basic Setting
Note: Function prompt will be shown when you place the
cursor on the tab.
Fill
Bottom/Top thickness: Used as the model need capping. Common setting as integral multiples of layer
height, keep it near your wall thickness to make an evenly strong part.
Fill Density: Means the net support structure inside the model. The higher fill percentage, the higher density
of net support. 0 means non‐fill, and 100% means solid fill.
Speed and Temperature
Printing Speed: Means the extruder's moving speed. Printing speed decides the quality of printing model
quality. CreatBot's default speed is 30mm/s. High speed printing can be set as 50‐70mm/s.
Higher speed printing needs a balance by increasing nozzle temperature, otherwise may easily cause
shortage of filament's
feeding. Printing speed also depends on the shape of model and many other factors. Recommended speed is
Quality
Layer height: The lower layer height, the
higher printing accuracy within certain limits
Super accuracy printing: Recommended set as
0.1mm
High accuracy printing: Recommended set as
0.2mm
Giving consideration to both printing speed
and accuracy printing: recommended 0.25mm
High speed printing: Recommended 0.3mm
Higher precision printing is available as
0.04mm, but because the filament extruded at
0.04mm is too soft and thin, which cannot
print complicated model. Meanwhile, the
speed will get low too much.
So here we don't recommend the printing less
than 0.1mm unless it is inevitable.
Shell thickness: Thickness of the outside shell
in the horizontal direction. Common setting as
integral multiples of nozzle diameter to
represent the outer wall print laps.
Flow: Flow compensation, the amount of
material extruded is multiplied by this value.
