Make sure the Ember printer is selected and click select printer settings.Click on the 3D print icon in the settings menu below.Select the 3D printing platform from the assembly tree.Once you are happy with the orientation of the model and the size/location of the support structures you can send the part to the Ember Select them individually in the assembly tree and take appropriate action You can now edit or delete these supports individually if you are not completely satisfied with the results. This will generate supports between the base and the contact points that you created and show them in the graphics window When you are happy with the location of the points select the generate supports icon.If you need to add or remove contact points you can do this using the modify contact points button.This will generate suggested contact points for the part Select the 'Automatically generate contact points' button.Select support type and chose something that is suitable for your part, in this example trees have been selected.
Select this new contact point group to bring up the settings box below.Right click on the 3D printing structures and select 'New contact point group'.Right click on 3D printing platform and select 'Create new 3D printing structures'.This will drop the model onto the platform allowing for a 0.4mm base in this case Set the height to a suitable platform thickness and click readjust heights to move the model.Click on the settings icon next to the 3D printing platform.If you are printing a part at an angle this obviously means that support structures are needed Note: Printing at an angle gives better surface finish and is less likely to fail as you are not curing a large area at once repeatedly (use rotation arrows to achieve this) Dynamically move the part to a suitable area of the print bed.Click on the STL model in the assembly tree and use the transform command to move the part.The next stage is orientating the part and creating a print bed. Click 'select printer' and select EmberĪ preview of the ember print area will appear in the ArtCAM window:įrom here you can see whether it is possible to print your part using an Ember printer.Select the 3D printer platform in the assembly tree and and look at the section below.Drag the STL file in the assembly tree into the 3D printer platform area.Right click on assembly and select 'create new 3D printer platform'.Right click on assembly and 'import' a STL file.If the file prints well then your issue lies within the ArtCAM setup, if the print fails then the issue is with the Ember printer. To help the support team identify your issue it is recommended that you print the sample file as a first step. The sample file in this article is available on request. It is a useful troubleshooting guide to identify whether you have any issues with ArtCAM or the Ember printer. This article outlines the procedure to print a single file (one-off) on an Ember printer with Autodesk ArtCAM.
