Printing more than one object at a time ?

Posted · Printing more than one object at a time ?

I'm using Fusion360 to draw my objects fore 3D printing using Cura latest version.

 

In Fusion I often draw my "objects" as more than one part that when printed has to be glued together as ONE object.

 

In Fusion I can only prepare the G-code file ONE part at a time resulting in TWO (or more) G-code files.

 

How can I 'add in' more than one G-code file to be printed at a time ?

    You can't do it directly, but there is a workaround.

     

    Select the top hierarchy of your design (the first top item) and then print this selection. You can choose parts of your design (bodies, components) by making them visible/invisible.

     

    Same for Save as STL. Difference is, that you have this way the possibility to save multiple bodies/components as a single body file or each body as individual file.

    I am not sure what you are looking for, you posted yesterday a question which is here:

    Additional it would be great when you could check your CAPS LOCK key or SHIFT key and do not post only in UPPER CASE. Thanks!

        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.
