Glossary of 3D Printing Terms
[1] |
Auto-Cooling Auto-cooling refers to the automated control of cooling fans in a 3D printer to regulate the solidification of the material during printing. Cooling is especially important for materials like PLA, which solidify quickly, to maintain print accuracy and prevent sagging or deformation. Slicer software often allows users to set variable fan speeds depending on the layer height, speed, or complexity of the print. Auto-cooling is also crucial for printing overhangs and bridges, as rapid cooling ensures better structural integrity. However, excessive cooling can lead to warping in materials like ABS, making fine-tuned control essential for successful prints. |
