I would love if we could specify a different filament for infill and/or inside walls then what we are using for the outer wall. I have made a couple of models in fusion 360 to get this effect and it looks really cool with a color behind white or translucent filaments. If the slicer could do this for me that would be amazing. Also it is a good way in a multicolor print to save some of my expensive filaments and infill with stuff I want to get rid of. Thanks!
This still needs to happen. Please
Agree, has this been done or not possible?
I’d imagine the effect would be interesting but the downside would be a filament swap at every layer. The alternative is to go thin on your walls and/or use translucent material.
Bumping this thread because with the H2D this has become a really interesting option again. Just imagining the different material combinations that would be possible:
black inner walls PLA - white outer wall PLA - could prevent light bleeding through
red inner walls PLA - transparent yellow outer wall PLA - orange candle effect
so much more…
This is the one feature that is keeping me from upgrading to the Bambu H2D.
Prusa has support for this same feature but the XL is more expensive. Please enable this feature!
I want to be able to do high strength infills with a tricolor exterior, as well as make heavier prints with an iron infill.
Bought H2D recently for specific project just to realize there’s no such option in the slicer…
Which honestly made me raise my eyebrow abit. Just why? Wasn’t this kinda whole point of having dual nozzle? (i don’t really care about multicolor prints, and X1 already could do it with extra waste)
Plan was to use Bambu PETG-CF for exterior and either HF or cheaper PETG for inner walls/infill.
It should be extremely easy to code such feature, nowhere near as complex as different nozzle sizes.
Bambu, i absolutely love your products, but features like this and REAL chamber temp control ( not the one we’ve got, but the one where you set temp and printer actually tries to keep it instead of just cool to whatever or heat to whatever) where both cooling and heating mode will be used simultaneously to keep desired temp.
Now that the H2C is out this functionality would be even more useful. Even Simplify3D had this abililty years ago…
Can’t choose inner walls, but you can pick material for infill. This was added in the most recent release of Bambu Studio. Bambu Studio V2.4.0 Release Note | Bambu Lab Wiki
Oh nice, I missed that. That’s a step closer in the right direction. In fact, with a modifier the same shape but slightly smaller you could set 100% infill for the part adjacent to the wall and then whatever percentage you want everywhere else. Will have to give that a try!
Thanks for pointing that out - I would have missed it simply because I didn’t know there was a “developer mode” that had to be enabled to allow advanced settings.
