For different applications there are different priorities and for some the manufacturability is specially high. Therefore it would be nice to push Designs in a direction where the manufacturing gets easier without costing to much performance regarding the efficient Design and material allocation.
For this use case an experimental function is implemented which takes the needed support for additive manufacturing into account while optimising the part. The function got 3 different methods which could be used. Each has some own characteristics and can be the best option for a part. The three different methods are
Passive
Reactive
Active
For the second and for the third method a second value can be defined, the intensity. The Intensity can be chosen between 1 and 10, where 1 is very low and 10 is very high. Take in mind that a very high intensity could lead to a slower performance and unusual results. It is recommended to start with the first method and use the other two together with the intensity if the results are not satisfying.
Tip: Use the shape quality “Fine Tune” to get better results and get rid of artifacts that can occur during the support reduction
In the next images an example part is used to display the difference between results of the methods.
