3D Printing: Quick Tour on Faster, Material Efficient and Stable Printing

Have you ever wonder, like "why does this little piece would take me so long to print and so dense as if it's made of iron?" Then it's probably time ot adjust some setting to make faster, more material saving and less dense prints.

1. 3mf or any exported 3D file
2. A Bambu Lab Studio(And no, we are not sponsored, you can also use printable's slicer, but I recommand Bambu lab more)
3. Your Own brain running

We have a standard .3mf file made just to help

Bambu lab studio download link:

1. Open the .3mf or whatever file in need of change.
2. Select to the Quality/Strength Part.
3. If you Slice plate right now it would show 40 min of printing time.

1. In the Quality section, see that now most(except support) is taking 0.12mm. Switch all the ones to .25mm(30mm or more if it's preciseness is not equal to dummy 13 armor yet)
2. Then go to the strength section, and set the wall loops to 3(2 if it's extremely stable)
3. The top surface can be ignored, now to the sparse infill part
4. For the infill, the more preciseness required parts may go up to 20 to 21%, with Rectilinear pattern.
5. However, 50% is obviously too much, for non-preciseness required part, about 8-5% of infill is enough, and use grid for faster printing

Now re-slice the object and it's now just 24 min!
