Printing Settings

3D printing settingsVERY IMPORTANTIt is imperative that both the general layer height and the first layer height are set to 0.3mm. The model is meticulously designed with this specific layer height in mind to ensure optimal adhesion among the rings and to the platform. Deviating from this set layer height could adversely affect the print's integrity, risking failure.Key Specifications:

• Critical Adhesion: Good adherence to the build plate is crucial for preventing warping and deformations that may ruin ring geometry, leading to assembly or wear issues.
• No Supports Needed: The model includes built-in supports where necessary.
• Adhesion Platform: A specialized platform enhances ring-to-bed adhesion, preventing print failures.
• Leveling Aid: The adhesion platform doubles as a leveling assistant.
• Optimized Layer Heights: Designed for a 0.3mm layer height for optimal adhesion between rings.
• Stringing: Use DRY filament to avoid stringing
• Slice Time: Complex polygonal design requires patience in slicing;Additional InformationEnsure your printer is well-calibrated and the bed is leveled for optimal results. Maintain bed adhesion by keeping the bed clean and free of grease. Use isopropyl alcohol for cleaning and apply adhesive if necessaryTroubleshooting tip:If rings detach mid-print, it could be due to collisions while moving between rings.To prevent this, use a Z lift of 0.5 mm.
