Wipe Tower A wipe tower is a sacrificial structure printed alongside a multi-material or multi-color model to clean the nozzle during filament changes, preventing color bleeding, contamination, or oozing. It provides sharp color transitions and consistent extrusion. Advanced slicing software customizes wipe tower dimensions, density, and purge routines for efficient material usage. Proper configuration enhances color separation, surface finish, and dimensional accuracy. Wipe towers are essential for dual-extrusion, multi-material, and high-resolution color prints, ensuring high-quality aesthetics and functionality. |
