Printing picture relief
Through our 3D printer, you can print the images you like into reliefs. With Cura
software, you can directly generate the images you like into gcode files that can be printed,
and then print the reliefs by machine operation.
After selecting a good picture, it is best to use PS to change the
background to transparent and then save it as PNG format. If you do not need
to replace the transparent background, you can directly save the picture format
as BMP/JPG/JPEG/PNG.
Open the model in cura and select the
image you want to print.
After selecting to open the picture, the
corresponding parameters will be set in the
interface as shown in the figure below:
Darker is higher
:
Lighter is higher
:
No smoothing:
Light smoothing:
Heavy smoothing:
Appropriately reducing the value of the layer
thickness, the light transmittance of the relief
sculpture will be better. Generally, it can be set
to about 2mm, or the parameters can be set
according to your needs.
