Positioning Objects on the Build Tray
To produce models efficiently and with the required finish, it is important
to carefully position objects on the build tray. Objet Studio supports the
automatic positioning of objects. However, you should check to make sure
that the objects are orientated optimally for your needs, according to the
considerations explained in “Model Orientation” on page 20.
Two things that affect the positioning of objects on the build tray are
orientation and placement . You can let Objet Studio determine the optimum
orientation and position, or you can control them.

applied unless you select the Orient Automatically check box each time you
place an object on the build tray. To do this, see “Default Settings” on
page 53.
