Printing This Part
Slicing
Orientation
| Part | Notes | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Collar Front | We recommend printing the collar front with the flat edge attached to the build plate and the curved face pointed up.
This will require the use of more supports, but will result in a better overall print result that requires less finishing. |
|
| Collar Back | We recommend printing the collar front with the thickest flat edge attached to the build plate and the curved edges facing up.
This will require supports, but will result in a better overall print result that requires less finishing. |
Settings
Collar Front
We start with the default "Standard Quality" 0.2 mm print profile. We recommend the following settings overrides:
| Setting | Recommendation | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Shell - Wall Line Count | 3 | This was increased from the default to increase the durability when higher amounts of stress are applied. This also completely fills in the sides and does not leave gaps between the walls. |
| Shell - Bottom Layers | 4 | This provides a good mixture of durability and material conservation. |
| Shell - Top Layers | 4 | This provides a solid top layer that is symmetrical with our bottom layer. |
| Infill - Density | 20% | This part is intentionally partially hollow at the corners to add an air cushion if the kiosk is dropped. |
| Infill - Pattern | Tri-Hexagon
Cubic Subdivision |
These infill patterns provide good internal support in multiple directions. Tri-Hexagon uses less filament but is also less durable. |
| Speed - Print Speed | 40mm/s | For final production prints, we recommend printing slower than average to decrease stringing with small holes. |
| Support - Generate Support | Yes | This part has a lot of overhangs that require the use of supports. |
| Support - Support Structure | Tree | We highly recommend tree supports instead of normal supports. They take more time, but they require less filament and are much easier to remove from inside the case. |
| Support - Support Placement | Touching Buildplate | Only printing supports that touch the build plate are much easier to remove from this print. |
| Build Plate Adhesion - Adhesion Type | None | This part has a lot of contact with the print bed and should not require a raft. |
| Experimental - Small Hole Max Size | 30mm | This will cause the printer to print slower when it is printing the screw holes. |

Results
Printers
This part has been print tested with the following 3D printers:
| Manufacturer | Model | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Creality | CR-10 Mini | Excellent print quality. Reliable machine. |
| Creality | CR-10 | Excellent print quality. Reliable machine. |
| Creality | Ender 3 S-1 Pro |
Build Surface
This part has been print tested with the following build surfaces:
| Method | Notes |
|---|---|
| Painter's tape | |
| Glue stick | Creates an uneven and non-uniform first print layer appearance. |
| Adhesive build surface | First layer may have problems printing full height depending on type and hardness of build surface, but this does not affect the overall printability. |
| Polyetherimide (PEI) build plate | Some parts may require a raft if there are issues with the first layer adhering. |
Filament
This part has been print tested with the following materials:
| Filament | Manufacturer | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Overture PLA | Overture | Excellent build quality and durability. Good for prototyping or production kiosks. |
| Amazon Basics PLA | Amazon | Decent build quality and durability. Recommended for rapid prototyping. |
