Upright Layer Bonding Upright layer bonding refers to the adhesion strength between layers printed in the vertical direction, influencing tensile strength, rigidity, and impact resistance. Proper layer bonding enhances mechanical properties and structural integrity along the Z-axis. It is influenced by layer height, print speed, and extrusion temperature. Advanced slicing software optimizes upright layer bonding by adjusting extrusion width, overlap, and cooling profiles. Proper settings minimize delamination, cracking, and layer separation. Upright layer bonding ensures high-strength parts for load-bearing, mechanical assemblies, and functional prototypes. |
