You can add as many locations as you want. Repeat steps 1-2 for each additional location you want to add.After you have positioned the red plane at the correct Z-height, click “Add Location” to add this location to the list.If you already know the exact Z-axis location, you can also enter this number manually in the “Split Height” input box.

Use the horizontal slider to move this plane onto the location where you want to change the settings for the print.

When using the wizard, you will see a transparent red plane cutting through your 3D models in the Simplif圓D workspace.

For example, if our Chess Piece model is 100mm tall, but we wanted to use different settings for the top and bottom halves of the model, we would use this wizard to add a single location at 50mm where the settings would begin to change.įollow the steps below to add all of the locations where you want to change the settings for your model. The remainder of the wizard is dedicated towards helping you select and visualize the different locations where you want to initiate a settings change. At the top of the wizard, you will be able to select the original process that you want to use as a template. To open this wizard, go to Tools > Variable Settings Wizard. The Variable Settings wizard makes it easy to define the different settigns that you want for each region of your model. Simplif圓D includes a built-in wizard that makes is incredibly easy to perform these modifications. We are going to vary the settings in this print to create a heavy base, fast-printing mid-section, and optimize print quality settings for the small features at the top of the part. This tutorial will explain how to use this feature to make the most of your 3D printed parts.įor today’s example, we will be working with the King Chess Piece model by CHISJaguars. You can use this powerful feature to improve the print quality in different areas of the part, reduce the overall print time, or even alter the mechanical properties of the final part.

Simplif圓D has a unique ability to allow customers to change literally any setting they want for different sections of a model. Different sections of a model may require different settings to achieve the best results. Experienced users understand improving your print quality is a result of optimizing the settings that are used during the printing process.
