Brim
Brim circles the base of the print while making contact, helping adhere the print to the Heated
Print Bed. This is only one layer thick, and can be easily removed post-print. This section defines
how the brim is formed when brim is activated in ‘Basic Settings’.
Brim Line Amount
This will determine the distance the brim will cover around the outside of your object. The
more brim used, the better your part will adhere to the plate.
Raft
Raft is a platform built underneath your object, designed to help adhesion and prevent warping.
It will lay down support material, and then a platform on top of the supports. Your model will be
built on top of this platform. The bottom surface of your printed object will not be as clean or as
even when using this option. Raft is typically not recommended.
Extra Margin (mm)
This determines the distance around the outside of your object that the raft is created. This
can be helpful for ensuring no warping occurs in the lower layers.
Line Spacing (mm)
This will determine the spacing between support lines for the raft. A small spacing makes
the support structures closer together improving strength of the raft, but uses more
filament.
Base Thickness (mm)
This defines how thick your raft will be.
Base Line Width (mm)
This will define how wide your support material is for the raft. This setting will determine
how well the surface layers of the raft print.
Interface Thickness (mm)
This will determine how thick the surface layers of the raft are. The surface layers are the
platform that is built upon the supports.
Interface Line Width (mm)
This will determine how wide the top layers of the platform will be. In general, you can keep
this set to your nozzle size, as surface quality of the removable raft is not important.
