3D PRINTING PROCESS | FDM (fused deposition modeling) |
INFILL TYPE | Grid, Gyroid, Honeycomb, Triangle or Cubic |
MATERIAL | Enclosed printer — ASA, ASA-CF, ABS, ABS+, ABS-CF |
Un-enclosed printer — PLA, PLA+ or PETG | |
INFILL PERCENTAGE | 40% - 60% |
LAYER HEIGHT | Recommended: 0.2mm |
WALL COUNT | Recommended: 4 |
SOLID TOP/BOTTOM LAYERS | Recommended: 5 |
EXTRUSION WIDTH | Forced 0.4mm |
A wall count of 4 is an absolute must to ensure the structural integrity of the parts. There is no need to go over the top with this. 4 walls are perfectly fine for this model.
