About the FFF Machines

Toolpath generation for filament-extrusion-based additive machines

There are several supported Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) machine workspaces available to choose from. If your FFF machine of choice is not available in the machine library, there is also a Generic FFF you can configure to your needs.

Print settings such as temperatures, infill strategies, print speeds and many others are stored as material solutions. The branded FFF workspaces come with their own solutions already defined, but you can also define your own, which you can save and load, as well as export and import.

While the FFF workspace has its own support-generating routines, it utilizes some features of the support module to allow specifying which detected clusters, contiguous areas of triangles that require support, should or should not get any support generated on them.

When you print multiple parts at once, you can assign a different strategy to each. Also, you can print multiple parts on the platform separately, one after another.

The final output of the FFF machines is typically g-code, and you have the option to specify your own g-code snippets that are then included in the output.
