“Hollow”—
Filling Models
with Support
Material
Many objects placed on the tray from stl files are “solid.” This means that,
when printed, the model will be completely filled with model material.
Often, especially with large objects, this is unnecessary. Instead, the model
can be filled with support material, which is less costly. It is also advisable
to fill models with support material when preparing them for investment
casting, since this material burns off more quickly during the process of
making the cast.
Objet Studio enables you to print objects on the tray with an outer shell of
model material and a center filled with support material. When using this
feature, called “Hollow,” the thickness of the shell should be no less than
0.5 millimeters.
To use the Hollow feature:
1. Select a model on the tray.

•
On the Model Toolbar, click

or—
•
From the right ‐ click context menu, select

3. If you change or cancel the Hollow setting, click
