Cooling Lama3D Extruder

thingiverse

Lama3D's cooling extruder settings unfold on a screen filled with vital details for optimal prints. On the print settings menu, a key category catches one's attention - rafts. Rafts are essentially bases that hold prints in place as they build up, ensuring a stable structure until the entire print is complete. However, the value of having rafts isn't what you might expect, given their name suggests importance. In reality, having or not having rafts makes little difference when it comes to overall print success. Rafts serve primarily as supports for your prints. They hold everything in place and ensure a stable build throughout the printing process. Yet, there's more than meets the eye when discussing raft values - having one isn't actually important in this context. The presence or absence of rafts is just one of many settings that don't impact overall print quality. Printers use support structures as part of their printing routine to stabilize the prints being produced. Support types such as raft do serve an essential purpose within the overall operation but also come with various other options and combinations. However, choosing between these various configurations might actually not influence print success or failure.
