Different thickness in same piece to print Hallo, I drawn and developed a flying wing fully printed. See here I'm looking for a solution to change the robustness in some part of the piece that I have to print. Normally I use CuraEngine of Repetier and I can setting thickness of perimeter and thickness of top/bottom, but this is common for all part of the piece that I have to print. I'm looking for a slicer able to change these two parameters in different point of the part, For example, close to the motor I would like to have an infill of 20% and 2 perimeters, instead in other position 3% and just one perimeter to save weight.

Normally I would make the models so that you can just center them on the build plate, but if this doesn't work then make the models seperate components in sketchup, and then use S3D to seperate connected models. I'm not sure how with other CAD software.]]> Origamib General Fri, 09 Sep 2016 16:17:53 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,706013#msg-706013 Re: Different thickness in same piece to print https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,706013#msg-706013 carletto73 General Thu, 08 Sep 2016 07:19:35 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705950#msg-705950 Re: Different thickness in same piece to print https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705950#msg-705950 DaGameFace General Thu, 08 Sep 2016 00:35:40 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705900#msg-705900 Re: Different thickness in same piece to print https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705900#msg-705900 Origamib General Wed, 07 Sep 2016 15:37:38 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705883#msg-705883 Re: Different thickness in same piece to print https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705883#msg-705883 DaGameFace General Wed, 07 Sep 2016 14:23:00 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705587#msg-705587 Re: Different thickness in same piece to print https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705587#msg-705587

Simplfy3d can almost certainly do this also.]]> DjDemonD General Tue, 06 Sep 2016 10:06:20 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705580#msg-705580 Different thickness in same piece to print https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,705580,705580#msg-705580 I drawn and developed a flying wing fully printed.
