Enables export of a temperature-controlled ghost part STL file
*CGPT
- r1, i1, r2
- r1: target maximum interlayer temperature (°C)
- i1: maximum iterations
- r2: tolerance (°C)
This card enables the export of an temperature-controlled ghost part STL file to keep interlayer temperatures under a prescribed maximum temperature. When the part is above the target temperature, the solver will iteratively add dwell until the part is at the target temperature up to a tolerance. Once the appropriate amount of dwell is determined for each layer, a ghost part is added with a cross-sectional area such that depositing the ghost part with 0 power takes up the necessary dwell time.
Ghost parts can only add dwell, and they cannot make your part hotter if it is already under the target temperature.
The filename of the exported ghost part is “${input} ghost part.stl”, where ${input} is the input file basename.
