Support Zgap & TPU
Posted: 03 Aug 2020, 03:47
I'm printing TPU (Ninjaflex) and supports are a right pain to remove with lots of scarring. I know TPU is 'sticky' but the amount of force needed to pull off the supports is tearing the model.
Normally, one would look to tweak the gap between the support and the model in this situation but for KISSlicer in the profile settings, the Zgap popup says that it's limited internally to be less than the smallest layer height and as I'm printing with 0,2mm layers I guess the Zgap is less than this which explains why it's sticking so hard.
Any suggestions?
KISSlicer 2a2.0.6 also tried 2a1.4.8 same thing.
