Slicing & Materials

Your printer works. Now you want prints that come out stronger, cleaner and faster, in the right plastic for the job, without the stringy, warped or half-finished ones in between.

In two hours we go through the slicer settings that matter, the materials worth knowing, multi-colour printing, and how to read a failed print so you know exactly what to change. It’s what we’ve learned running a print farm every day.

How the session flows

  1. settings The settings that matter Layer height, walls, infill, speed and supports: what each one changes, and when to touch it.
  2. materials The right plastic for the job PLA, PETG, TPU and ABS/ASA side by side: strength, heat, flexibility, and how each one prints. Print the first three yourself.
  3. colour Printing in more than one colour How multi-colour printing works, painting colours onto a model, and keeping the waste down.
  4. fix Read a failed print Stringing, warping, layer shifts, poor first layers: what each one looks like and how to fix it.
  5. take home Your PLA, PETG and TPU test prints, and an ABS/ASA sample

You leave knowing which setting to change and which plastic to pick, and with test prints that show the difference.

Frequently asked

Who is this course for?

Anyone who can already run a print (after How to 3D Print, or on a printer of your own) and wants better, stronger prints with fewer failures.

What do I need to bring?

A laptop with your slicer if you have one, though it's optional. Bring any failed print you'd like us to look at: we'll work out together what went wrong.

Which materials do you cover?

PLA, PETG, TPU and ABS/ASA: what each is good at, how they print, and which to choose for a job. You print PLA, PETG and TPU yourself in class. ABS/ASA needs an enclosed printer, so you get a ready-printed sample to take home instead. We also cover multi-colour printing.

Can I use SkillsFuture credit?

No. This course isn't listed on SkillsFuture. It's $120 a person before GST, on a date you pick and book online.

Is it part of a longer course?

Yes. It's the fifth of six bite-size courses, and all six together are the two-day Advanced 3D Printing Masterclass, $690 a person.
