Gaps in Thin Walls
Share
When printing very thin walls, especially those only slightly larger than your nozzle diameter, you may encounter issues with gaps. For example, if you're trying to print a 1.0mm thick wall using a 0.4mm extrusion width, adjustments may be necessary to ensure a solid wall without gaps.
Common Causes and Solutions:
Adjust Thin Wall Settings
Start by reviewing the thin-wall settings in your printing software. Depending on the options you have, adjust the settings to see if this resolves the issue.
Modify Extrusion Width
Another approach is to adjust the size of the extrusion width to better fit your wall thickness. For example, if you’re printing a 1.0mm thick wall, setting your extrusion width to 0.5mm can help achieve a more solid and fast print, provided your walls have a consistent thickness.
