  • calibration

I recently had a new user comment after printing one of my models, that when removing supports it damaged the model. So, I thought I would create a simple calibration test for defining what support settings would be best for your printer.

 

This test comprises 6 print files with differing layer heights of 0.08, 0.12, 0.16, 0.20, 0.24, and 0.28. 

 

Each print file contains 6 plates, each with a different style of support, being: Tree organic, Tree slim, Tree strong, Tree hybrid, Snug and Grid. 

 

Each plate contains 5 identical models, each with a different Top Z distance of: 0.2, 0.225, 0.25, 0.275 and 0.3

 

Simply select the layer height you want to test against, then the type of support you want to test. 

I have added an image for each type support, so you can see what they look like.

 

Hopefully this helps you get the best out of your prints.
