Semiautomatic Support Creation

With a rather complex part, manual support creation can take some time. Therefore, Netfabb offers to create support structures semi-automatically. For this, you must first define the downskin, then right-click one of the clusters to open its context menu.

Semiautomatic way of support creation. Define a downskin and add a support via context menu.

With choosing one of the options (Create bar support on cluster, create polyline support on cluster and create volume support on cluster) the whole cluster will be filled with the according support type. Single entities can of course further be adjusted in the Edit tab.
