Roof thickness makerbot.

Hi i currently own a ctc dual and i am using makerbot dekstop 3 8 1 with it. Roofthickness sets the thickness of your object s solid roof in millimeters. It seems to be a threshold to small and nothing will slice. The wall thickness for the sides needs to be 0 98mm.

Floor thickness adjusts how thick the base layer bottom of first step will be and roof thickness will adjust the thickness of the surface of the 3rd. If there are visible gaps on the roof part of your model or you d like a stronger print increasing the roof thickness might help. Makerbot 3d printing initiative to combat covid 19 as covid 19 continues to impact the world the need for 3d printing solutions to provide supplies to the medical community increases drastically. Adjusts the thickness of roof sections of the model.

When this setting is used roof thickness is independent of layer height and number of layers. This group of settings includes. A lower layer height will result in a smoother surface. The roof and floor settings affect the solid layers that form the top and bottom of each print.

I was just wondering if there is a way to increase surface thickness instead of just roof floor thickness. 0 35mm to 0 45mm seems to do it depending on your layer height. The 4 mm nozzle on a makerbot 3d printer may not be able to print well at layer heights higher than 35 mm. Heres a scenario imagine a staircase consisting of 3 steps.

Makerbot is here to support the medical community at this time to help combat the shortage of necessary supplies. Use layer height to set the thickness of your printed object s individual layers. An object with a higher layer height will print faster. Too thick and you get two walls.

When i made these pins from memory. In general a roof truss manufactured from 2 by 4 lumber will support as much roof load as a 2 by 6 or 2 by 8 rafter. If rooflayercount is enabled this setting will not be used. When this setting is used roof thickness is independent of layer height and number of layers.
