Presets of print settings

A body preset is a subset of a print setting and includes parameters that can vary from machine to machine. Body presets were previously known as build strategies and were available only for machines with additive MPBF capabilities.

By default, each print setting comes with two body presets called Normal and Strong. The Normal preset is the default and this applies to all bodies in the active setup. You can edit the parameters of the presets as needed to meet your requirements.

You can also duplicate the presets to create your own, which you can then assign to different bodies. By assigning presets, you can have multiple bodies on the same print bed or build platform that use different print-setting parameters.

Note: Creating additional body presets is available only when you select an additive machine with FFF or MPBF capabilities or an EOS additive machine with SLS capabilities.
