Chapter 7: Advanced Printing
When you get familiar with your Guider, you will definitely want to accomplish some
advanced prints. This chapter will take you to get to know the advanced printing
skills.
7.1 Skills on Supports
Support structures enable the printing of models with steep overhangs and
cantilevered sections. The Guider 3D printer utilizes Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF)
technology, which works on the additive manufacturing principle of heating and
laying down material layer by layer to create an object. Many sophisticated 3D print
designs require materials to be deposited on a layer where there was not a previous
layer, or the designs have steep angles which might cause undesired drooping during
the print. In these cases, support structures are needed to ensure objects integrity and
print quality.
①
Principle of 45 Degrees
Generally speaking, if the 3D model has an overhang of more than 45 degrees, you
will need supports. This angle is determined by the material, layer height, extrusion
width, and temperature. It is critical to adjust the support structures accordingly to
ensure the best print result, especially for large 3D prints.The principle is raised by a
stage designer and widely accepted among the 3D printing industry.
②
Principle of Proportionality
As for the application of supports, the users are suggested to comply with the
principle of proportionality. Even though the supports algorithm has been developing,
