The amount of extruded plastic is REDUCED. Width changes ALWAYS AFFECT extrusion amounts, but leave Layer Height UNCHANGED.

The extra height and plastic volume makes thin layers thicker and also helps smooth out bumps and inconsistencies in bed surfaces. This is used primarily when printing fine layer heights and/or on slightly uneven printing beds. Essentially squishes the standard amount of plastic into a lower layer height.īOTH extrudes more plastic AND pulls the nozzle slightly away from bed so as not to squish the layer. Values below 100% ONLY lower the nozzle closer to the printing surface. You can find this setting by clicking Edit Process Settings and going to the Extruder tab. Extrusion Multiplier to 0.95 and Default Printing Speed to 3000 mm/min with 50 Outline Underspeed and 70 Solid Infill Underspeed in Simplif圓D v4.1.2. Layer height (distance from nozzle to printing bed) is REDUCED Another setting to check within Simplif圓D is the extrusion width that you have specified for your extruder. For best results, this should be no less than your nozzle diameter and at least 1.2 times your layer height in the layer tab. Where it starts to be a potential issue is when you think about what the filament is physically doing when you try to make an extrusion bead much narrower than the nozzle. Both nozzle height and extrusion amount can be affected by this setting, but perhaps not in the way you think. Extrusion width: this is the thickness of the tracks laid down during extrusion. If you do 0.2mm extrusion width, it will extrude half as much filament volume per strand and twice as any strands as with 0.4mm extrusion width.
