Build plate adhesion: Is needed to prevent the printing material from detaching off the build plate.
Support: As we have no overhangs we don‘t need any support structures.
Infill: Determines the printing time and stability of the model.
Printing profile: The profile also determines the printing quality and speed.
Material: We select the correct material.
Nozzle diameter: Affects the printing time and structure (quality) of the resulting model.
We checked the models and the printing time.
We moved one model to avoid obstruction.
We wanted to print two mobile-phone car mounts, so we duplicated the 3D-model.
In order to avoid overhangs and the need of support structures we rotated the model by 90°.
We opened a 3D-model file.
To do:
Now we have to check and adjust the printer parameters. These parameters affect the printing quality, printing time and stability of the printed models.
Done:
We have completed all requiered steps concerning the modification of the models:
In cases where dimensional measurements of the part require better tolerances than ± 0.05 mm or surface roughness better than 10Ra, the indicated surfaces must be machined.
For these cases it is essential to provide an over thickness of material.
