Supports fracture

Supports fracture

Symptoms

The model supports are broken, unable to connect to the model.

Possible Causes

  1. The touch point size of supports is too small
  2. The diameter of supports is too small
  3. The spacing of supports is too big
  4. Exposure time is insufficient
  5. Moter speed is too fast

Diagnostic Steps

  1. The touch point size is too small
    Diagnosis: The small size of touch point cannot provide enough force to support the model.
    Solution: Increase the touch point size accordingly.
    Increase touch point size

  2. The diameter of supports is too small
    Diagnosis: The small diameter of supports cannot provide enough force to support the model.
    Solution: Increase the diameter of supports accordingly.
    Increase support diameter

  3. The spacing of supports is too big
    Diagnosis: The spacing of support is too big, that cannot provide enough force to support the model.
    Solution: Increase the spacing of supports accordingly.
    Increase spacing of supports

  4. Exposure time is insufficient
    Diagnosis: If exposure time is insufficient, the resin will not be cured completely and the supports can not firmly support the model.
    Solution: Increase accordingly exposure time.
    Increase exposure time

  5. Moter speed is too fast
    Diagnosis: The high motor speed can bring fast printing, but if the parameters of supports are not suitable, it is more likely to cause fracture.
    Solution: Reduce accordingly motor speed of burn in layers and normal layers.
    Reduce motor speed of burn in layers and normal layer
