Posted · What are the proper steps for sequential printing of duplicated models with Simplify3D?

Here is the process I use for sequential printing of the same part in Simplify3D:

 

  1. I load one STL model, and create one process for it
  2. I then duplicate the model and process
  3. For each model I have a seperate process
  4. When I select preparing to print, I select all the processes, Sequential Printing, and set the height to something huge, like 5000 mm

 

Is that the right way? Seems like there should be a simpler way.... :O

    For sequential seems ok. I never used it.

    One think that might help you (you probably already know but just in case) if you want to change the settings of all the processes just group the process you want to have 'link'. It will connect all the settings that are common between them so if you change one think on one it will affect all the processes grouped.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
