medium📝 Analysis Q7 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Identify cause of poor layer adhesion
Low printing temperature can cause insufficient melting and bonding.Step 2: Evaluate adjustments
Increasing temperature improves layer fusion; lowering bed temp or extrusion multiplier worsens adhesion.Final Answer:
Increase the printing temperature -> Option DQuick Check:
Higher temp improves layer bonding in composites. [OK]
Quick Trick: Raise print temperature to fix layer adhesion [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Reducing extrusion multiplier which lowers material flow
- Lowering bed temperature which reduces adhesion
- Assuming speed change alone fixes bonding
